You forget the typical American's psychology... when someone tells you what to do, you do the opposite, just to prove a point. When someone attacks you, and orders you to do as they say, you 'get them back', and then spend a significant amount of time, money, and effort for the exact OPPOSITE cause.

yes, that is my solution. it isn't giving into terrorists though. that is a setup that you have bought into. don't feel bad. it's a GD epidemic.

the typical USAn psychology is meaningless. that is a fairy tale of your own invention (if i'm reading you right?).

so it's even worse than we've been led to believe? interesting. thwarting attacks usually calls for a feather in the cap of somebody. they really must be different over there.

we don't need MORE cooperation with israel. that is one of the main reasons we are seen as the enemy. first, we need to convince them to leave the occupied territories, to at least get them to abide by international agreements. then we'll see about other stuff.

HorseHillary! The Wahabi types hate the west and have done so since the Crusades. That would be about 1000 years before the modern state of Israel. These backwards thinking freaks hate (not just dislike or not happy with) all things Western, Christian., jewish, Buddhist, Hindu or other non Islamic beliefs. Sadly, the situation in Israel is a straw man that the Arab nations perpetuate in order to divert attention from their despotic governments, corrupt rulers and generally lousy living conditions their people find themselves in. Israel serves as a sort of "bread and circus" for the Arab street while keeping the rabble out of the palaces.
