The Deathiversary of Ronald Reagan

Not a fan of 20th century presidents. Not after Coolidge. And those who were presidents after WWII seemed powerful like emperors.

I'm going out on a limb here (well not really), but put the blame of Islamic terrorism after 1999 square at the feet of Ronald Regan.

They were so much about "evil gommunists" that they gave stinger missiles to Islamic fighters who ended up turning into the Taliban and Al Queda which lead to 9/11.

Yeah the Soviet Union was bad, but if they won in Afghanistan than 9/11 would have never happened and if they were still around then they'd still be burning down mosques and forcing people into state atheism.

But Regan and crew saw Muslims as religious brothers when in fact they are our real enemies, not the communists.

Also, he fucked up by backing Iraq's invasion of Iran which lead to Saddam having debts which he used as a pretext to invade Kuwait (yeah it was after his time), but that directly lead to 9/11 as Osama Bin Laden was austic screeching with the yet to be invented spinner about holy Muslim clay in Saudia Arabia.

Really. Had we not fucked in the Middle east in the 1980's we'd be better off now.

Well at least Britain wouldn't be getting shitted on.

That was just his body anon. He had died at some point well beforehand.

I love it when people reduce the complexities of cold war geopolitics and all of the thousands of moving cogs behind it to nice little packaged one track cliched analyses like this. Yawn.

Except its not Reagan's fault at all. Carter took the middle road and got BTFO HARD in the 1980 election. The American people wanted Reagan to fuck up the Iranians.
