What if - US seeded peace not war

What if? Causes and Effects behind U.S. policies
What if the U.S. did not support and fund Bin Laden during the Russian and Afghanistan war? In doing so, they seeded fields of violence that lead to the attack on the World Trade Center , 9/11/2001.
What if the U.S. asked why was the World Trade Center chosen for the first attack during the Clinton years. The first al Qaeda attack was 16 years ago in 1993 during the Clinton years. Our political leaders and the news media still do not ask why the World Trade Center picked twice by the al Qaeda to attack.
What if the elder President Bush while head of the CIA did not support and fund Sadaam Hussein in the Iraq Iran war. Would Hussien be able to rise to power as he did. And no one seems to want to talk about where the weapons of mass destruction came from. Most of them were not produced in Iraq. ( I saw a satirical comment on a forum saying Bush knew Hussien had weapons of mass destruction because he had receipts for them. I wonder how true this is . ) Why did the U.S. generals have to bury up to 50,000 Iraq soldiers in the sands with earthmoving equipment during the first Desert Storm war. The U.S. already had won the battles. Why did the U.S. military have to bombed the Iraqi soldiers and their families fleeing back to Iraq from Kuwait? What good could come from something like this.
What if President Bush listened to the former top weapons of mass destruction inspector - Scott Ritter or read some of Seymour Hersh's articles about the weapons being gone since 1992. What if the major media channels covered these stories. I saw Scott Ritter a few times on the major media channels but he was never provided the proper platform to state his case. He and Hersh for the most part were confined to radio talk shows and programs by Amy Goodman from Democracy Now. Amy Goodman is also limited in her appearances on major media channels and I wonder why. She has plenty of credentials
What if President Clinton stayed out of the wars in the Balkans and instead supplied humanitarian help instead. President Clinton supposedly went into the Balkans to stop ethic cleansing. In the process, 750,000 Serbians and gypies fled their homes to save their lives. Many fled to Kosovo where they were attacked again. So President Clinton instigated a new form of ethic cleansing. Today Kosovo is virtually cleansed of Serbians with Serbia being a major part of Kosovo for centuries. How does Clinton's ethic cleansing differ from any other.And how does this stop the centuries old conflicts in the Balkans
What if President Clinton did not invite and bring the Islamic fighters to Bosnia. Some of these fighters ended up being part of the 9/11 attack on the World Trade Center.
What if President Clinton did not bomb and fire missiles into Iraq on a consistent basis while he was in office. It seems like Iraq was being "softened" for a future direct ground attack. The Catholic Workers newspaper reported that about a million innocent Iraqi people lost their lives during this period due to the bombings and the sanction.
What if the U.S. people knew more about the makeup of Afganistan which is a culture of tribal communities. How can the geopolitical balances in this nation and surrounding regions be ignored. The Taliban and the Northern Alliances change by the day. Most likely, there are still former Russian trained officers too. How is this supposed to work for the short or long term.
Why do our top military experts ignore the historical balances. They know better. They must know that fighting against hundreds dirverse targets never really win a war. They know that the U.S. will leave Afganistan the same way all invaders have left in the past because the U.S. people like people in many other countries in history will not accept a 30 plus years war. No country was ever able to financially afford it. It was a major reason why the Soviet Union lost their empire.
