Palestine could have it's own independent state and the Americans could pull out of Afghanistan tomorrow, but that wouldn't stop Al-Qaeda's operations, they'd simply find some other reason to threaten and terrorise innocent people. They are trained terrorists, and are not interested in peace talks or resolutions. Bombing and killing other Muslim countries and citizens as they usually do, has little if anything to do with USA/Israel foreign policy.Originally Posted by Hurt Locker
There was a bombing in Pakistan today, apparantly to "avenge" the removal of Bin Laden. It's not even remotely comparable.

I like high energy football. A little bit rock and roll. Many finishes instead of waiting for the perfect one.
Al-Qaeda feed off a hatred in many sectors of the Middle East of the US, and the West in general. This wouldn't go away if the US pulled out of Afghanistan, and Palestine became independent, but things like this are a large part of the reason the hatred was there in the first place.
The US, UK, France, Russia etc won't let this spook created thing drop, like MI6 are doing in relation to "republican dissidents", budgets need to be justified and money spent, so they will stay aorud somewhere. What's amazing is that nobody is calling out the Americans on a sustained and serious level (a compliant media doesn't help) of how Bin Laden was living next door to US military trainers for so long - and so many stories being released are being used to sustain a lie as well as whip up a reaction. It's going to get worse for a while yet.
There's been a bit about it, but to be fair, the higher-brow media aren't as likely to throw mud, and the more low-brow sections are firmly in the jingoistic "support our troops or you like boys" category.
