Does Bin Laden's logic make sense ? Bin Laden said that American Citizens pay taxes and vote for our government therefor we are just as guilty for the crimes and for what are Government does does this logic make sense ?Our American Constitution says we the people to form a more perfect union therefor we the people are the government ? Or is our Government by Corporations and for Corporations since we have Lobbyists and Americans are forced to pay taxes ?

Full text: bin Laden's 'letter to America'

(a) This argument contradicts your continuous repetition that America is the land of freedom, and its leaders in this world. Therefore, the American people are the ones who choose their government by way of their own free will; a choice which stems from their agreement to its policies. Thus the American people have chosen, consented to, and affirmed their support for the Israeli oppression of the Palestinians, the occupation and usurpation of their land, and its continuous killing, torture, punishment and expulsion of the Palestinians. The American people have the ability and choice to refuse the policies of their Government and even to change it if they want.

(b) The American people are the ones who pay the taxes which fund the planes that bomb us in Afghanistan, the tanks that strike and destroy our homes in Palestine, the armies which occupy our lands in the Arabian Gulf, and the fleets which ensure the blockade of Iraq. These tax dollars are given to Israel for it to continue to attack us and penetrate our lands. So the American people are the ones who fund the attacks against us, and they are the ones who oversee the expenditure of these monies in the way they wish, through their elected candidates.

(c) Also the American army is part of the American people. It is this very same people who are shamelessly helping the Jews fight against us.

(d) The American people are the ones who employ both their men and their women in the American Forces which attack us.

(e) This is why the American people cannot be not innocent of all the crimes committed by the Americans and Jews against us.

(x) Your law is the law of the rich and wealthy people, who hold sway in their political parties, and fund their election campaigns with their gifts. Behind them stand the Jews, who control your policies, media and economy.

one thing that has to be factored in is that the vast majority of Americans dont want their tax dollars going to the wars in iraq and afghanistan. thats very important, because by law we have to pay taxes, but it doesnt mean that we agree to where our tax dollars go.
