Maybe the US should have never supported Bin Laden (or other terrorists) in the first place.

You might watch the video of Ron Paul that I posted.
You don't remember the train bombing by muslim terrorist in Spain which influenced their national election?
And what about the Philipines, India, & Russia? What about all the terrorist bombings and hijackings that have happened for many decades before the war in Iraq and Afghanistan? Naw, none of that happened right?

Muslim terrorism has been going on even before Bin Laden was ever born.

The bombings in Spain happened because of the support of the war in Iraq.

As much as I condemn terrorist attacks like you do, you don`t want to realize that terrorist have a political motivation in the western world.
They attack anyone that has attacked them or supports their biggest enemy.
Get out of the middle east and you`ll have a much more peaceful life.
As 9/11 has shown you are not able to protect your own country. Take all the soldiers and resources you have spread out in the world and take them back to the US to protect the american citizen.

Have you watched the Ron Paul video?

Let's see if you sing the same tune when Jihadists launch a deadly attack against civilians in your homeland Germany or Poland... it's only a matter of time.

There are no geographic bounds to Islamic extremism...

They are in Argentina by the way.. and they have a rapidly growing presence in South America... They perpetrated the Jewish Mutual Association building bombing in Buenos Aires in 1994 - Iran and Hezbollah were implicated in the bombing.

Germany`s soldiers are in Afghanistan and Poland`s soldiers in Iraq.
Do you think both populations support both wars?

that is the problem with trying to fight terrorism in afghanistan now. there are extremists ALL OVER THE WORLD!

america cannot keep spreading our own resources thin by going in and fighting every country that has terrorists. history proves that they just set up shop elsewhere.

what america needs to do is to target terrorists and not let them on planes heading into the US, where they can do us damage. people may not like the concept of profiling, but when there is smoke there is sometimes fire as well. if the terrorists that blew up the trade centers hadn't been allowed in our country in the first place, they couldn't have gone to flight school here to learn how to fly into tall buildings and kill innocent americans.

I'm not interested in "empathizing" with them or "trying to feel where they are coming from" or any of that garbage. They need to stop killing innocent people.

Also, its pretty weird to label someone a far leftie if that person officially supports Ron Paul, a politician more conservative than any of the Republicans. Closest to your constitution, RP advises the US to change your foreign policy, since its the reason for all the mess you guys are into.
See, the most conservative man, not the far lefties, says

"Al Quida is growing because of our policy, our national security is threatened because of our policy"
You nailed it right on the head. They don't come after us because they dislike our freedom or western ideology. They attack us because we illegally occupy their holy lands and for our support of Israeli expansion.
