  What we learn here is that Mike Rogers thinks America may have deserved the 9/11 attacks. It’s an open, debatable question in his mind.

  Of course it is false. It was said by a Republican politician.

    When will anyone ever consider suing these pieces of shits?

      Suing for defamation is very hard in US. It is only practical against poor people in states without anti SLAP laws. I don’t think a republican politician would have problems with financing his defense for not at all corrupt reasons /s

      They did. They didn’t deserve it. USA, however, armed, trained and killed people who commited that attack, and did nothing to prevent this kind of retailation. If you kill someone’s family, hand them a loaded gun and turn around, you deserve to get shot.

      Not that “deserve” is the best word to explain blowback, but I’m sure you can bridge this gap in semantics, and understand that victims aren’t the people blamed in that context.

      The people didn’t deserve that, but incredible violence been done in the name of the country, so it’s inevitable that someone would strike back.

      But it was honestly a gift to the warhawks in that country. They immediately used the political capital to attack a convenient and unrelated middle eastern country.

    Except not really, because in context he was talking about the boomerang effect. But if authoritarians and liberals understood nuance they wouldn’t be authoritarians or liberals.
