I am not by any means trying to justify terrorism, I am only trying
explain what I percieve is a very narrow and self-centerd view of what
is happening. and that this view is causing more harm than good.

Okay, Alex, please explain how, in your view, the U.S. has created the
Islamic terrorists. What have we done, as a nation, to foment terror?

I didn't say the US has created the terrorists; they are responsible
for their own actions. But I believe the US has given them a motive.
I'll repeat my earlier attempt to explain myself:

The US has been interfering with governments all over the world for
many decades. Some very exceptional and highly publized interventions
end up well (WW2). But most of them lead directly or indirectly to
poverty, famine and general misery (Lat.America).

Don't even have to leave the country. Look at the fine job we have done
with the American Indians.
