when Bush was saying "they hate our freedom" what was he actually talking about?

This is early 2000's history, a very long time ago so if you know anything please share.

I don't think anyone one knew what it meant even then. I assumed it was referring toward how groups like the Taliban restrict political speech and the rights of women. In Islamic fundamentalism, painting imagery is forbidden and the arts of calligraphy and weaving patterns into textiles have flourished. I assumed it was alleging that why the 9/11 hijackers did 9/11 is that they couldn't stand that we don't restrict the things that their home countries do. I don't know whether that's completely true, but the groups responsible themselves cited our stationing of troops in their home countries, even with their governments' permission, as a factor.

It's the whole dumb thing in which american's believe the whole "City on the Hill" bit from Ronald Reagan's speech.

Other things like blowback from foreign policy for things like blank check support for Israel is not a factor in thinking about what actually caused 9/11.

I don't understand the appeal of vaping and every vape evangelical seems like an absolute cretin

Nicotine: no cigarettes and associated side effects, can sneak a puff in some non smoking areas, maybe (not a huge smell but the cloud you put off is pretty hilariously conspicuous)

THC: easier to conceal than a bag or jar of weed plus a pipe plus a lighter, no or very little smell, blends right in with the nicotine vapers so you can do it in States where it's illegal (do not buy THC vape carts on the black market, even ones that appear to be in """official looking""" packaging)

I like it because I can't have cigarettes anymore and I can blow big smoke rings like I'm chugging on a hookah or something, vaping THC doesn't really do much for me
