In case you haven't noticed, they have been hating us for years, to include the 8 years that Bill spent in office. Did you forget about the USS Cole and Embassy attacks? All on Clinton's watch mind you. And lets not get started on the sitaution in Africa right now, again, a problem that Bill could have helped while in office.
Now I'm not going to argue whether or not Bush has aggrivated the situation. But not puttting ANY blame what so ever on Clinton is extremely narrow of mind. Funny for a democrat.
That is a fair statement in that I would not blame 9/11 on either bush or clinton, who really saw that coming? We hadnt been attacked like that since Pearl Harbor 60 years ago. However, the reason for iraq was WMDs, not osama. And bush sent us to iraq, clinton didnt.
