Islamic Extremist Terrorism: America's Frankenstein

I was a firm believer in the war on terror, its aims, resolution never to bow down and eventually its ultimate success.

As well as extensive evidence that this policy was not only expanded in Afghanistan but also other groups opposing communism were funded in other countries. Eventually my own views were changed and this article will now show, that since 1979 successive American Presidents selectively or intentionally ignorant attitude toward unintended consequences of foreign policy decisions, has figured largely in the scourge of Islamic extremist terrorism the world now faces.Gauleiters and Quislings Bungle Iraq Info?
