"America does not go abroad in search of monsters to destroy. She well knows that she might become dictatrous of the world, but she would not longer be the ruler of her own spirit."

The monsters came to America and threatened her freedom. The monsters cheered as they watched the towers burn...there was no search needed.

Where is the link between the current war and the tragic events of 9/11? Did anyone ever prove there is a connection, apart from the fact that they WOULD have supported it, had they had the opportunity. At the moment all there is that there COULD have been a connection. Your country has driven away from the words of their founding fathers. You do not have to defend it, I'm not attacking Americans, I'm attacking American politics. I think there are plenty of Americans who could think for themselves without any problems. But they should have all necessary information, not the propaganda your government has been spreading lately.
