You honestly need this to be explained? I'd assume if you had a loved one involved, you would have done the research yourself...

No. I need you to explain exactly the part that I referred to specifically in my last post to you. ie; the part that is underlined - because it very much reads that you blame 9/11 for the wars starting in the M.E.

It's not really that difficult. Or is this because it's one subject that you think you have a handle on when you, in fact, don't.

I recall the last time you got into such a debate ......

well it's quite simple.. islamic extremist teror organizations attacked the UNited States on 9/11, and the Americans went after those groups responsible because the governments of the countries involved were eigther incapable or unwilling to go after them themselves.

And you seriously think that the M.E. wars began because of 9/11.

Not much point in continuing. You clearly have little idea of the history behind the M.E. and the Western World and why they become involved.

no obviously the M.E. has been a mess long before because of European (including british) colonialism. I was talking about the current waRS THOUGH.

I didn't have my crystal ball charged up. Silly me.

See.... that's all that was required. A little bit of clarity - which is what I simply asked for, given your rather confusing previous statement.

I think that's pretty much the problem at times: you don't know what I, others and even you yourself, is talking about much of the time.

I'm not aggressive, I'm merely challenging you. If you can't hack it, in being asked to explain some of your thoughts and posts, perhaps serious debates - which tend to be of that nature - aren't for you?
