Wasnt it the US and CIA who trained and funded the Afghans and taught them urban terrorism techniques against the Russians??

Would this be regarded as terrorist activities or is that just an "army" doing its thing?

Bin Laden was also supported by the CIA in the 80's and trained to hire mercenaries for warfare against the Russians.

At the time Bin Laden was called the "freedom fighter"

Funny how it changes to "terrorist" when it suits the US and others.

Israel have the most WMD (outside of the US)yet have never been pulled up or asked to hand them over or dismantle.

Not hard to work out who runs and funds the Whitehouse.

So Hicks was a little silly but wasnt he just fighting as any soldier does? No matter what the army?

They (Taliban)are an army in their own right (unless you ask a westerner) so do we then say the AUS British and US army officers are terrorists?

If not why not?

So killing innocent people in Iraq is justified carnage due to a war situation?
