Come on now Tine ....you are a very smart guy, you know this is not a fair argument. The US was at war with Japan -- those bombs were dropped with the specific intention of ending the war.
The attacks on the WTC were intended to start a war .....so they got what they wanted I guess.
I am not an apologist for the US ...I don't always agree with what they do ...but I also know that the US has played a vital role in the peace many of us take for granted. The US is a very easy target for criticism ...there is a great amount of hypocrisy from many of its critics.
