It's a little more complicated than that. We'd be dealing with suicide bombers and partisan guerillas too if we hadn't given back Germany, Japan and Vietnam.

The more pertinent question is, why are we so intent on being involved in a fight over which Semitic tribe occupies Israel? Prior to our involvement in the region, the last Islamic terrorists we ever had to worry about were the Barbary Pirates. I've never read anything about Eisenhower lying awake at night trying to figure out how to deal with Muslim terrorists.

It isn't complicated to me.

They lost.

We "aint givin' Manhatten back to the indians either.

The Arabs are just a bunch of panty waist whining cowards.

No matter what you aceeded to or gave them they'd still cry like babies.

The Islamic Brotherhood, the forruner of all Islamist parties, was at war with Western civ since the 1920's.
They hated the US above all else. Look up Said Kuttab.

Islamist terrorist had no ability to strik the Us int eh 1950's. There were virtually no Muslims here.

That's because 757's had not yet been invented.
