"CB: All the straining on this is by y'all who 'don't see' a connection between the bombings and the wars."

You should try talking to one of them. There's clearly a connection in that the bombers didn't like the war. Whether it was the grievance that drove them to bomb--well, that's not clear, despite Remick's idiotic protestations to the contrary. Are you really sure that you want to join him in his unfounded certainty?
