Is that a 'popular cause'? The US government has not obtained permission from the UN or the US people.

Correction:

TERRORISTS: Commit acts of violence against innocents to further politically unpopular causes.
US GOVERNMENT: Commit acts of violence against innocents to further politically unpopular causes.

See: Chile, Nicaragua, Colombia, Iraq, Iran, Palestine, Afghanistan, Yugoslavia, the Congo, Zaire, Haiti, the Dominican Republic, Cuba, Guatemala, El Salvadore, East Timor, Somalia, Panama, Libya, Grenada, Greece, Vietnam, Cambodia, Laos, Thailand, Italy, Indonesia, Brazil, Guyana, Russia, Germany, Albania, Korea, the Philippines, the Marshall Islands, China, Japan, Honduras, Uruguay, Mozambique, Angola, Turkey, Cyprus, Lebanon, Peru, and Ecuador.

What a dumbass.

That's only in the last century.

Would you say that the popular opinion of the American peoples would agree with the 15,000,000+ innocents butchered by their country in the last century, if their government hadn't blinded their eyes to such atrocities?

Fuck off, you ignorant piece of shit. Educate and return, this time not hiding like a pussy behind an unregistered name.
