You are scum if you think for one second that the US or Americans deserved this.

Somebody, somewhere, obviously thought that the US was deserving of this, and far more.

The United States' foreign policies have ticked a lot of people off, including a fair number of Freepers. Anti-American terrorists don't go to the effort of training their people to fly planes full of Americans into large American landmarks just for the fun of it. They do it for a reason. If that reason is our support of Israel, they may be disappointed by our lack of a change in policy in response to their killings. But there may be other policies in place that deserve serious review if we're going to avoid seeing other American landmarks destroyed and other Americans killed.

The better question is not WHY we are hated, but Who is it that hates us. Fanatical religious extremeists who hate America FAR MORE than they do Israel. We are the great Satan because our freedom is opposed to their ideology. The 2 cannot co-exist. It's us or them. They want the middle ages back. The "Root Cause" of this are spineless fuzzy brained airheads who speak of root causes. People with retarded maturity levels. The cure for their behavior is a red,white and blue rage that isn't quenched until the last fanatic is dead. These mobs must be taught a lesson lest our children become their victims. People have a choice, WE ARE GOING TO LEAD. They can follow or get the hell out of the way.

Ok Traitor Scum!

You can be ticked off, but that is a far cry from mass murder. The US can have any foreign policy we want without innocent civilians being killed by people who disagree. I will not modify US policy to placate terrorist.
