"The reason Islam seems like such an angry religion today is because so many Muslims are angry. The reason so many Muslims are angry is because most of them live under antidemocratic regimes backed by America, with lagging economies and shrinking opportunities for young people."
I refuse to believe that the U.S. (a.k.a. "Great Satan" in the Middle East)has that much influence anymore. Besides, misplaced anger is no justification for terrorism.
