What I do know about Osama Bin Laden (head of 'AQ') is that Ronald Regan provided material support to terrorists including OBL in Afganistan during the 1980's

That is correct. We also provided the same type of support to Iraq at the same time. Gas was 75 cents a gallon, the Bears won the superbowl, lots of things happened in the 80s which don't mean a hell of a lot today.

You were kinda starting to win me over until this fell out of your mouth. There are so many ways to debunk this tripe I don't even know where to begin. I definitely want our government and military to be held accountable for prior actions, and I have a hard time believing that some in our armed forces (roughly 80% of them, supposedly) don't think this.
"So Saddam, you gassed your own people in the 80's"
"Yeah, so? The Bears won the superbowl in the 80's. What's your point?"
