We're in the business now of supporting the Sunnis anywhere we can against the Shia, against the Shia in Iran, against the Shia in Lebanon, that is Nasrullah. Civil war. We're in a business of creating in some places, Lebanon in particular, a sectarian violence.
Call it what it is. They're supporting terrorists.

I agree, and I don't think that we've ever claimed otherwise... we simply sweep that dirty little secret under the rug... America was founded on blood, violence, and deceit. Why should it change now? Throughout the history of our "great" country, we've killed anyone that gets in our way. Since the middle of the 1900's, our country has been ruled by FEAR, fear of nuclear holocaust, the arms race escalation, the fear of the REDS, and communism spreading over the planet, killing our "GREAT DEMOCRATIC COUNTRY", and when that enemy faded, we concocted another enemy... one even better than the now bankrupted Soviet Union, we've created "TERRORISM", something that is less finite, more difficult to locate, and impossible to stop. However, that's the new "mission" of our government, to exert more control over the populous in the name of "combating terrorism". More legislation is coming to further remove our rights, and provide the government more control over the people, without the majority of the constituents even aware that they have lost any of their rights. This country is showing the world that we have multiple faces... the one that we show our enemies, the one we show our people, and the one we show our allies... and all of them lie. Government is getting bigger, not smaller, taxes continue to increase, regardless of "tax breaks", and our tax dollars continue to be squandered paying a government that doesn't represent our national and international interests. However, given the opportunity to live in any country in the world, I'll stay here... for the time being...
