Why would the blame the nation that was their primary target? Why would we blame the nation that some were born in rather than the nation that housed and protected the army?

Why would we blame the nation that some were born

Perhaps because it's the same nation that funded them

Also lol at "some". Yeah, 15 out of 19 is "some".

Are you under the impression that Al Qaeda had 19 members total? If not why would you state 15 of the 19 hijackers being Saudi as if that was significant?

The USA fought the group that attacked them in the nation that army was in. You seem to think they should have attacked the nation where they were not actually located. Why should they have attacked the nation that wasn't sheltering them or aiding them rather than Afghanistan which did both?

I don't think we should have attacked anyone. We should have sanctioned the fuck out of Saudi Arabia. Cut off the funding and al Qaeda dissolves on its own without firing a shot.

So we should have targeted the people not responsible for these actions as sanctions would hurt regular Saudis the most.

Your entire approach to this subject is baffling.

As opposed to targeting the people not responsible for these actions with death, as the war hurt regular afghanis the most?

Your entire approach to to this subject is bordering on Bond villlan levels of evil. Why does your breath smell like al saud semen?
