On September 11, 2001, the United States suffered one of the worst tragedies of the 21st century when irrational Islamic terrorists destroyed the World Trade Center in New York City. An earlier effort some years back was not successful. This time it was! Why does Al-Qaeda express so much hatred to the United States, its allies and interests, and to no other country? I question why the United States is at war with Iraq. It is fairly clear that the Saudis and its disciples were behind the terrorist attack. Iraq was a convenient excuse because the Saudis were believed to be our ally and we could not risk disrupting the flow of oil, since they are our biggest supplier. In my opinion, I do not think we should be at war with Iraq, since a number of innocent people lost their lives. Alternatively, should we go to war with Saudi Arabia?

There are three major reasons that made Osama Bin Laden declare war on the United States of America. The most important one is because he doesn't like the aid that's being handed from America to Israel, like helping them kill Palestanians and control most parts of Palestine. Another reason was because of the sanctions that were put on Iraq early in the 90's which caused the death of many Iraqi children. The last reason is because he's a Wahhabi and hates the western culture, so basically Wahhabism view christians as sinners and in the Quran they are supposed to kill them all, that's why you see a lot of churches getting hit in Iraq after the war by either sunni or shiite muslims.
After September 11, the Saudis stated they had nothing to do with the attack on the World Trade Center, and even if they did, America is investing heavily on their oil, and they cannot take the risk of declaring war on them. They even have camps of military bases in their country to make it easier for them to attack parts of the middle east in case of wartime.
I do agree that the good guys and the bad guys were switched around, when it comes to why America declared war on Iraq rather than on Saudia Arabia, they really headed to the wrong direction for making that decision, and that's why they have no solutions or plans after catastrophe of this war.
