Is there a different history?
WTC/Pentagon inspired by terrorists who absolutely loathed America's military presence in the Middle East. Osama Bin Laden's statement regarding this is cited in the 9/11 Commission report. Cuban Missle Crisis, the result of hegemony across the world including the U.S.'s support of the White Army in the Russian Revolution. Iran hostage crisis is quite simple...there wouldn't have been a hostage crisis if we didn't have people over there...and if we hadn't overthrown the Shah, likely. War of 1812 was declared by the United States forged out of expansionism and arrogance.

It's like a civil war in Africa; you know, it doesn't really concern you too much. - P.J. O'Rourke
