Perhaps we should spend some tiny fraction of the time and money and

Bush says it's because "they're jealous of
our freedoms." Hmmm....does that really make sense?


Esentially, it is a rephrasing of their own words.

If anything, it's an understatement.


To put it in the simplest possible terms, they hate us because their children
think Brittany Spears is cool, and in an electronic age, they can no longer
isolate their children from her immodesty with our satellites raining her belly
button down upon them.

You can complicate the matter with all sorts of historical greivances and
accussations against the West, but in the end, they are lashing out at the
modern world because their sixth century culture cannot compete for the hearts
and minds of their children.
