No. But you have judged the United States and implied that the behavior
of the United States somehow justified the attacks, and caused hatred of
the United States by the Islamic nations. I pointed out that the Islamic
nations are far more guilty of every crime that the article which you
yourself stated you agreed with than the United States is. While two
wrongs do not make a right, if the reason for the hatred IS the stated
crimes of the United States, one wonders why the Arab nations don't hate
the other Arab nations even more.
