The events is not a small unimportant issue, it gave the U.S a pretext to wage 2 destructive war which has cost lives, injuries and displacement of millions people, 2 countries occupied in the row, so it's not merely something about Americans, we do sure offer our condolences for their lost, Iran was one of the first countries which expressed its sorrow and Iranian people lit candles and cried:
More pictures
May God bless them and they rest in peace.
but your government is not an angel in white no one in the ME could trust it, they fabricated a piles of lies to fool people to attack Iraq:
1. Iraq was responsible for the 11 September attacks
2. Iraq and al-Qa'ida were working together
3. Iraq was seeking uranium from Africa for a "reconstituted" nuclear weapons programme
4. Iraq was trying to import aluminium tubes to develop nuclear weapons
5. Iraq still had vast stocks of chemical and biological weapons from the first Gulf War
6. Iraq retained up to 20 missiles which could carry chemical or biological warheads, with a range which would threaten British forces in Cyprus
7. Iraq could deploy its weapons of mass destruction in 45 minutes
Or back in 1990:
In 1990 a 15-year old Kuwaiti girl named Nayirah gave a tearful testimony before US Congress about what she witnessed in Kuwait. She told a terrifying story of Iraqi soldiers taking babies out of incubators and killing them. George Bush began calling Hussein the “new Hitler,” and this incident set off a huge public uproar of support of the 1991 Gulf War.
Nayirah’s testimony was later proven to be a complete lie. A public relations firm set up and staged her testimony. Nayirah was even given acting lessons at the request of the CIA. Nayirah was in reality the niece of a Kuwaiti ambassador to the USA. Can you say Wartime Propaganda?
Or in 1962:
According to secret and long-hidden documents obtained for Body of Secrets, the Joint Chiefs of Staff drew up and approved plans for what may be the most corrupt plan ever created by the U.S. government. In the name of anti Communism, they proposed launching a secret and bloody war of terrorism against their own country in order to trick the American public into supporting an ill-conceived war they intended to launch against Cuba.
- Start rumors (many). Use clandestine radio.
- Land friendly Cubans in uniform "over-the-fence" to stage attack on base.
- Capture Cuban (friendly) saboteurs inside the base.
- Start riots near the base main gate (friendly Cubans).[13]
- Blow up ammunition inside the base; start fires.
- Burn aircraft on air base (sabotage).
- Lob mortar shells from outside of base into base. Some damage to installations.
- Capture assault teams approaching from the sea or vicinity of Guantanamo City.
- Capture militia group which storms the base.
- Sabotage ship in harbor; large fires—naphthalene.
- Sink ship near harbor entrance. Conduct funerals for mock-victims (may be in lieu of (10)).
Our on Iran, after 50 years the U.S admitted his role in a military coup against Iranian democratic government in 1953:
In 2000, Madeleine Albright, U.S. Secretary of State, said that intervention by the U.S. in the internal affairs of Iran was a setback for democratic government.[108][109] The coup d'état was "a critical event in post-war world history" that destroyed Iran's secular parliamentary democracy, by re-installing the monarchy of the Shah, Mohammad Reza Pahlavi, as an authoritarian ruler.[110] The coup is widely believed to have significantly contributed to the 1979 Iranian Revolution, which deposed the "pro-Western" Shah and replaced the monarchy with an "anti-Western" Islamic Republic.[23]
The needed a big lie to justify their plans in the ME, I'm not saying they did it by themselves or they didn't it but I think they were well aware of it,
