And we were supporting Osama Bin Laden and the Afgan Army when Russia was invading.

The current problem started right after the first Gulf War, after we drove the Iraqi Army out of Kuwait, we stayed there and in Saudi Arabia. This upset Osama and his boys, he wanted the US Infidels OUT of HIS country, OFF his Holy Land. We wouldn't leave, so the Muslim Extremeists, (with financial support from Saudi Patriots) started blowing our stuff up. The same applies right now in Iraq. The Insurgents want the Infidels OUT of their country.

Like Colin Powel said, "You can win the war, but it will be very difficult to win the peace."
