Phillip,

Obvioulsy you misunderstood my post. I never said they were freedom 
fighters. Also I was talking about Iraq not 911. Last I heard it was Saudis 
that flew into Twin Towers.

The guys killing our troops in Iraq think they are fighting for their 
freedom from US occupation and our evil inlfuence. Just like IRA terrorists 
blowing up bus station in London thought they were fighting for their 
freedoms. Again I am not agreeing with them (in either case). I repeat I am 
not calling the insurgents freedom fighters.....Like I said it is all about 
perspective.

Wally
