Bin laden is pissed at us for what happened years ago when the USSR invaded Afganistan. We sent all these weapons and then promised to help rebuild their country. Sure we sent them the weapons, but we never did help them rebuild and get back on their feet. That still doesn't excuse what he did, Afganistan is lucky we helped them in the first place.
The U.S should not have abandoned afghanistan after the soviet invasion.It would have changed alot of things I hope the U.S finally learns that lesson.
The only other posible reason for the U.S pull out of support back then is perhaps if they did americanize Afghanistan back then the Soviet Union would have retaliated.
