    9/11: The US has seemingly become a deplored evil

Although the Twin Towers fell 20 years ago, the aftershock of rubble and smoke in NYC still unsettles nations and innocent lives around the world as a result of the original authorization for the use of military force, a vote held just three days after the 9/11 attacks. At the time, Congresswoman Barbara Lee palpably warned, in a tone that rankled US governments, “As we act, let us not become the evil that we deplore.”

History repeats itself

The German Philosopher Karl Marx once said, “History repeats itself, first as tragedy, second as farce." This quote perfectly paints a picture of the repeated US foreign policy failures from Hanoi to Beirut, to Kabul, to Baghdad, to Havana, and so on.

Today a question is raised amid the hasty US withdrawal from Afghanistan and a possible military withdrawal from Iraq. Will this be the end of another dark page in the endless grim history of foreign military interventions committed by the United States as it moves to isolationism, or will it be just the beginning of another round on new fronts and with new false pretexts?
