      You see, this is part of why I’m so opposed to the current genocide. A casual observer of history might assume that because no politicians were against it, no citizens were.

        Were you even around in 2001? I never hung out with politicians. Just regular people, and I remember their reactions and vengeful anger.

        I find a lot of young people who weren’t around in 2001 love to take the moral high ground on global affairs, and as a non American that shit makes me angry. You guys don’t get to take the moral high ground after what you did to my country and people and many others, and never even made amends or apologies

          I was, and almost everyone I knew was against the wars. I’m not going to claim it was a majority but there was substantial resistance that grew over time. I think initially after 9/11, people were too shocked to really mount an organized resistance right away. A lesson I hope we’ve learned from, since the Bush administration capitalized on this paralysis immediately.
