[QUOTE="Charles, post: 397414, member: 13948"] What I am saying are not facts, they are mainly deductions from the present situation. Reasoned opinions, if you prefer. there's no really need of proof in the realm of ideas, as long as you follow logical deduction. Where have I said the Al Qaeda has the moral high ground, could you show me? I'm very interested. I think [B]you[/B] haven't been reading properly, or perhaps my english is not clear enough. The US had the moral high ground because they are a democracy, they enjoy freedoms such as the right to vote, the freedom of religion, justice (rule of law, right to a fair trial) and they were the victim. They are supposed to be fighting for Freedom and Democracy, which is why the good guys are on their side and can somehow accept the numerous killings of innocents, the illegal prison of Guantanamo and so on. Going to Irak on false pretenses aside, killing Bin Laden without indicting him, without a trial, is the exact negation of what they are supposed to fight for. If they wanted to show the world that in the end those freedoms are just pretexts, they couldn't have done better. I can't really be clearer than this I'm afraid. Lucky number 7, this article is from 2009. It has absolutely nothing to do with the possible consequeces of Bin Laden death. Not that it really matters but anyway... [/QUOTE]
