...and that's probably not a bad world view. | yup... that also happens to be the world view held by terrorists. According to THEM , the AMERICANS came in and messed with them first. so it's a chicken and egg type of situation. Fact however is that american support of an unpopular shah in Iran gave the ayatollahs the popular support to start the revolution, the present occupation of Iraq is fueling terrorism there, unequivocal support of Israel ( in spite of their ruthless treatment of palestinians) is causing most arab muslims to want to kick american ass.
American is FAR MORE ACTIVE outside their own borders than anyone else on the planet. This includes bullying client states, sanctioning those who do not wish to be bullied and invading those that have oil.
What are you talking about when you say that america only goes into another country in response to terrorism.
you don't seem to understand the 9/11 was the culmination of many years of american intereference in foreign lands.. u know from when you were liberating the world from communism.. back when you supported osama.
No muslim ever tried to dictate american policy.. same cannot be said for america.. America has been interfering in muslim nations WAY before terrorism even existed. Love for all, Hatred for none |
