but I can't agree with this article entirely. Even though I won't dispute that many of the increased attacks are likely provoked by our policies, if we pulled everyone out today and if the war NEVER even happened, we would STILL, have problems. Something many of you fail to see (or will at least admit to seeing) is that there is a large element of fundamentalist, extremist Muslims, who's goal it is spread extreme Islam (along with bringing everyone into the extreme lifestyles, dress standards, ect) throughout the world. Britian is full of them and they are VERY vocal about it. They do hate our lifestyle. They do hate the fact that woman can drive cars, vote and have a life, they do hate our freedoms. All of this has NOTHING to do with Bushes policies. They would still be causing problems if we were as nice as pie, because they want everyone like them. I don't agrue, that they are very successful and mobilizing young idealists, in the name of defeating big, bad, America in the name of getting us out of their hair, but if we left, they would still be there and with the same goals...to spread their idealology. I saw it happening first hand in Europe. I think that many of you are focused on only one problem, while ignoring a much greater threat.
My opinion as always.
