Then why have terrorists also bombed Madrid, Spin; Beslan, Russia; Morocco, South Africa; and Paris, France?

Yes, liberals are the ones who always say "if Americans haven't attacked them, they would have leave us alone" and "they attack America because of bad US foriegn policy"

madisonsuicide, they were all carried out by radical jihadists.

Schmorgen, they are not unrelated, they are all radical islamists.

Osama Bin Laden is just one radical islamist, there are many others.

The information and links below should provide you with a preponderance of information about whom Muslim terrorists attack.

Islam is insidious, it encroaches on a culture slowly and deliberately. You may be interested to read a document which discusses the degrees of Islam in great detail (50+ pages) -- "From dawa to jihad - the various threats from radical Islam to the democratic legal order":
http://www.fas.org/irp/world/netherlands/dawa.pdf

The one page essay by Dr. Walid Phares, "Islamic concept of Al-Taqiyah to infiltrate and destroy kafir countries" is very good.
http://www.fisiusa.org/fisi_News_items/news109.htm

Not all Muslims blow up things, yet "jihad in the cause of Allah" "jihad fee sybil Allah" is "fard ayn" "compulsory duty" for all Muslims. Why? There are rules from the Quran for combattive jihad. Read this:
http://www.notislam.com/id8.html

What does the tape from Gadahn mean? Does anyone realize that Muslims are supposed to "dawa" "invite others to Islam" before jihad?

According to al-Mawardi an 11th Century Shafi'i jurist:

The mushrikun [infidels] of Dar al-Harb (the arena of battle) are of two types: First, those whom the call of Islam has reached, but they have refused it and have taken up arms.… Second, those whom the invitation to Islam has not reached, although such persons are few nowadays since Allah has made manifest the call of his Messenger…it is forbidden to…begin an attack before explaining the invitation to Islam to them, informing them of the miracles of the Prophet and making plain the proofs so as to encourage acceptance on their part; if they still refuse to accept after this, war is waged against them and they are treated as those whom the call has reached…

In the Hidayah, vol. II. p. 140 (Hanafi school):
It is not lawful to make war upon any people who have never before been called to the faith, without previously requiring them to embrace it, because the Prophet so instructed his commanders, directing them to call the infidels to the faith, and also because the people will hence perceive that they are attacked for the sake of religion, and not for the sake of taking their property, or making slaves of their children, and on this consideration it is possible that they may be induced to agree to the call, in order to save themselves from the troubles of war… If the infidels, upon receiving the call, neither consent to it nor agree to pay capitation tax, it is then incumbent on the Muslims to call upon God for assistance, and to make war upon them, because God is the assistant of those who serve Him, and the destroyer of His enemies, the infidels, and it is necessary to implore His aid upon every occasion; the Prophet, moreover, commands us so to do."

Comparing apples to grapefruits to pomegranetes.
First off, no liberal has ever made the claim that you state. You cannot carry out intelligent discourse by posing an argument, attributing t to your opponent and then refuting it.
Secondly, there is no group of "the terrorists." The Basque ETA in Spain (disarmed now), the IRA in Ireland (disarmed), Action Directe in France and Al Qaeda HAVE NOTHING TO DO WITH ONE ANOTHER.

GET IT THROUGH YOUR HEAD: Terrorism is a tactic, not an enemy you can kill. ETA didn't care about Iraq, the IRA didn't care about Israel, Tim McVeigh didn't care about Saudi Arabia. These are small people who use mass murder to scare the masses. When we cower from them, the tactic is working.

What a weird and wonderful question. the respond, of direction, is that maximum "liberals" are far greater clever pronounced approximately international events than maximum insular "conservatives", and be responsive to that pefectly nicely. I presume you will have only found those data. Oh, and Beslan wasn't a bombing. and you forgot Lagos, Nigeria. attempt to maintain up with something of the worldwide.

That's a large and incorrect assumption. I'm a liberal and know full well that there have been terrorist attacks in other countries...As it happens, you're missing Turkey, Egypt and Bali to name but a few from that list.

paris? when?

i'll use small words: i am not a coward. i refuse to live in fear. i refuse to compromise on my freedom, because of some small person somewhere who doesn't understand it.

that's what i think. it matters not that we are all threatened equally, what matters is how we decide to live through it.

you make an interesting observation... paris hasn't been bombed in a decade. in contrast, there were huge riots last year in the suburbs with massive amounts of destruction. why do you suppose that is? i have a theory, but i'd be interested if you would investigate something yourself... instead of simply parroting the most simplistic version of reality you can.

... what are you talking about?

most liberals are much more aware of world events than most Republicans... they all go "who cares about them... we're america"...

they always say "terrorists haven't did anything since 9-11"... when they clearly have.. .as you say...

terrorists are everywhere and have been everywhere... in every country... of every nationality...

this isn't even a question... it's a statement.

OK, OK, OK... YOU'RE CLEARLY ONLY TALKING ABOUT ISLAMIC TERRORIST... BECAUSE THERE ARE MANY OTHERS... WHICH YOU SEEM TO BE A LITTLE FUZZY ABOUT...

so maybe you should say Islamic terrorists...

now talking about islamic terrorists... they say they attack because of the policies.. and attack all those countries because of their policies... they all have policies affecting the middle east... what's you're point?
