Tenchu, I see little point in debating you further. It's clear that you are an irrational America-hater who has created all kinds of justifications for your hatred, and you are unwilling to see any other view. Yeah, the US will have more accidental fire because Australia has 500 combat soldiers there (and another 1,000 support staff) and we have 150,000... gee, which group is going to have more accidental shootings?

Osama is an irrational bastard who has dreams of establishing a world-wide Islamo-fascist Caliphate and wiping out the "degenerate, debauched, decadent" Great Satan of America, and any other free people who might stand in his way or refuse to submit. If you're trying to say his reasons for attacking us many times over the years are perfectly reasonable and legitimate, I think that says more about you than Osama... and if you're trying to say Osama attacked us on 9/11 in return for our actions in Iraq or Afghanistan, look at a calender and see which happened first.
