October 29, 2004 Osama Bin Laden in a released speech aired on al-Jazeera, the Qatar based satellite television network, stated his goal was to bankrupt the United States of America. He further stated at the time that the United Soviet Socialist Republic (USSR) had been defeated in Afghanistan twenty years previously in the same manner.
One must really think hard about that statement. Even though he is a dead man, did he nearly, if not actually, bring down the most powerful nation on earth with his strategy?
How could one man dedicated to a purpose almost bring the United States to the brink of bankruptcy? Or should the question be, how can the United States Government allow itself to be in such a terrible financial position as it is presently in?
How on earth did Georgie Junior take us into Iraq to squander trillions of dollars? What is wrong with our system that this could happen? What have we been doing in Afghanistan for all of these years, omitting from your answers, of course, besides spending more trillions of dollars?
With posts like this, the guvmint is gonna stalk you again, even though you make a valid point.
