Terrorism?

I stand in front of you today to justify those who have given up their lives to show mankind a glimpse of the world they have allowed to function, to explain the actions of those who bleed for humanity, I am here to justify acts of those humans who have been deprived of humanity. I stand to justify acts of Terrorism.
In Micheal Moores film, Fahrenheit 9/11, majority of the American classify terrorists as those who had no humanity, fundamentalists who impose their ideology upon us. These people whom the US government calls the worst terrorists in the world, i.e. the Al Qaeda. were set up to work as allies in the region by the US government. The US govt. is absolved of guilt because the people it supported in the past weren't these terrorists they are bombing today, those were resistance fighters. It is interesting to note that the US government in collaboration with the CIA and SA intelligence spent $6 billion on training Osama bin Laden, the very man they’re spending double the amount to hunt down. Franklin D. Roosevelt said that, "in politics, nothing happens by accident. If it happens you can bet it was planned that way." In an undisclosed news report by MSNBC, Afghan war plans were on Bush's desk on 9th Sept, 2001. 2 days before the attack on the World Trade Center.       
David Milliband, British Foreign Secretary, is an advocate of justifying Terrorism. He says the war on terror is primarily a war on ideas and world views, in which the USA is inhumanely hunting down those very fundamentalists and imposing their version of democracy upon them. They have been unsuccessful in the past and today in enforcing American Democracy. These so called suicide bombers have seen their mothers stabbed, brothers shot, sisters raped and fathers cut into pieces and delivered to them. After such cruelty for a normal off-the-streets man, will he not rise against in vengeance to harm the perpetrators of violence itself?
The Iraqi War Enquiry Board questioned Tony Blair on his reasons of the Iraq invasion. He had no definite answer. The fate of Iraqi people was decided on a maybe. And the West stands as representatives of freedom and the rights of people.
Severn Suzuki addressed the UN conference at the age of 12 in 1992. She silenced the world for 5 minutes. She said, "You are what you do and not what you say. We are part of one whole and when we talk, we speak for others too. Make your actions reflect your words and let our voices make a difference to the world."
We must look beyond the obvious to see the real aggressors of today.
