Why do people get mad at me for posting this picture?

Update:

You are missing the point. When we arm Al Queada affiliates they are called freedom fighters. When it comes back to bite us they are called what they are: Terrorists.

    I don't get mad at a picture like that. I get mad at the people who post pictures that are supposed to be of themselves and beg desperately for us to worship them.

    Your picture is simply emblematic of the attitude of someone who is being rebelled against and tries to deflect from the evil he has done by claiming the "terrorists" are not "freedom fighters."

    We armed the mujahadeen in the 1980s to fight the invading Soviet army. Al Qaeda targets civilians.

    The quotation in that picture conveniently omits that fact, along with Assad's own mass murder.

    Well, for one thing, when protest in Syria first started, it was just that -protest. Assad's heavy-handed response with police shooting protesters guaranteed in became an armed insurrection.

    I tend to feel sorry for ignorant people, not angry.

    It's not terrorism to hit his army
