What in the world are you talking about by saying "the attack by Afghan natives"?

There has never been an attack by Afghan natives against the US. 


Talk about nonsense running rampant, sheesh.

I certainly hope Olberman wasn't talking about "attacks by Afghan natives".

 People living in/acting from a base within Afghanistan. Is that not clear enough for you?

 Were we attacked by people in Iran, Iraq, Pakistan? Where would you like to assess their point of attack? Why all the fuss about going into Afghanistan is not because that is their "native" base?

There is no evidence at all that any Afghanistan official or even "native" knew of the Saudi natives' al Queda attack on 9/11. 

My information is that Afghani natives were only on the edges of al Queda.  I could be wrong on one or two, but it certainly is not and was not an organizatin run by Afghanistan natives.

The importance of that point is that there was no reason to invade Afghanistan because Afghanistan was not behind 9/11.

We had good reason to enter Afghanistan. We new where the attacks had come out of and it was perfectly reasonable to head back in an attempt to get them as soon as possible.
