Of course they share a responsibility.M.O.A.B wrote:
That's what the Iraqi people are doing, no? Not trying to stop the bombers in any way, so therefore they're 10% responsible.CameronPoe wrote:
It's a combination thing. See beyond the black and white. The bombings are 90% the responsibility of those who carried it out (Al Qaeda, etc.) but if you allowed a situation to arise or unjust actions you took prompted or facilitated such a situation to arise then you must take the remaining 10% of the blame.

Look if you killed my father or something similar then it'll be on your head that I come after you and fuck you up irreparably. This is about cause and effect - the effect: bombing the shit out of innocent civilians is a horrible horrible path to take, they should be concentrating on taking out US soldiers if they truly are men of honour (which they aren't) - but without cause there is no effect. A lot of what happens in Iraq is causeless - not anyones fault but the complete fucking fruitloops who think it's a good idea to blow themselves up - but 7/7 and the Madrid bombings very definitely fall into the 'cause and effect' category.Hunter/Jumper wrote:
Sorry, if I didn’t plant a bomb in the Subway Metro Tube what ever I will take no blame.
Try not to be so abstract in your thinking.

Terror attacks happened long before we entered Iraq and have occured in countries who have not supported US military action in Iraq. That tells me that homicidal maniacs will come up with almost any excuse to justify their murderous acts. If they don't have Iraq to blame, they'll come up with something else to feed their mind-numbed followers to convince them it's honorable blow themselves to bits amongst women and children.
True... but I would argue that invading Iraq just gave more people reason to attack us. It may be true that a certain amount of people want to kill us no matter what, but an occupation is a great way for these people to find friends among the general populace....
