Of course. That's what I tried to communicate above. I just wanted to
point out that are in fact two sides to this controversy.

Many people in this world think that the US supports terrorists. After
all, who trained Osama Bin Ladin? The US did. Osama Bin Ladin was our
good friend when he was trying to get the Soviet Union out. Who
supplied the poison gas that Saddam Hussein used to kill the Kurds? The
US. Who protected Saddam Hussein against world sanctions while he was
doing it? The US. Saddam Hussein was our dear friend when Iran was our
enemy.
