War on the American public to convince them the enemy was the people who had the major deposits of OIL. Apparently, American citizens are that gullible.
in October of 2001 President Bush sent troops over to Afghanistan for the first time in response to the attacks on Sept 11th. America with the assistance of Great Britain and other ally countries wanted to break up the Al Qaeda operation center in Afghanistan and help the oppressed Afghan citizens who were under the devastating Taliban regime.
Basically yes. But dont be too quick to judge uncle sam. international relations is a tough game played for keeps. 911 was like a little puppy dog snapping at a pit bull. what does the pit bull do?
same thing uncle sam did. plus remember the globall alliances are always in play behind the scenes. the middle east is russia's backyard. putin still refuses to join the west in condemning syria. put another way...russia wasn't all that choked up that 911 happened to its greatest foe.
I know that we did not invade the country that the terrorist came from..that country was Sadi Araba
What was our very very first military response right after 9/11 happened?
