September 11th was caused mainly by Americas foreign policy, but also, it was without a doubt one of the worst and concentrated losses of life in recent history. So did the actions of America ensure that eventually something would happen in protest of the way they interact with the world?
Remember guys, its a question, not a statement of opinion.

Get the hell out of here? Where are you talking about?
Also i believe that the Bible also promotes the killing of Infidels. Dont you think that if Islam truly did promote such actions as part of its basic faith that we would be in a lot more trouble. There are over 1 billion muslims and there is no where near as much 'terrorism' happening in the world as there would be if they all wanted to kill the infidels of the world.
Thats just common sense

Its a difficult question to answer. The problem being is that if anyone says "Yes America deserved it" then they appear to be say ing that the victims of the horrible day deserved to die. While im not saying that about the victims i agree that America did have it coming. With what American policies have done to many countries around the world its not surprising to see that a form pf payback has shown its ugly head.
America as a country deserved what happened on September 11th, i would even go so far as to say they deserve more and worse for what they have done to other countries, just look at Nicaragua. But also, two wrongs don't make a right, so i guess its a hard thing to answer defiantly.
Ill stick by saying that America did deserve the terrorist attacks, they deserved to have a reminder of what the real world is like, of what happens when outsiders try and influence a countries destiny. America deserved it, but failed to rise to the occasion and learn by their mistakes. America is pitiful country, with all of the potential they had and still have,m they have managed only to show greed and arrogance to the world at large over the past century.

Remember this is just an answer not my entire life philosophy! The event at 9/11 happened because of the US/israeli connection and we aren't even sure precisely how many really died on that day! They failed to do a proper investigation. The government destroyed necessary evidence to cover their tracks. If the American public is so gullible and ignorant that this type of incident can happen then certainly they deserved every moment of it! If the president has to hold hands with Dick Cheney and both refuse to take the oath when testifying during the 9/11 commission then nothing they had to say has any meaning what so ever,this speaks volumes as to how honest and/or corrupt this existing government truly is for the American public!

American foreign policy is a minor element in September 11. The USA is hated for what it is (as well as for what it pretends to be). Appeasement of one group will just cause some other group to despise you.
Foreign policy is a matter of national self-interest. Those who voted for George W. Bush either agreed with his apocalyptic vision of the end times and the Rapture, or they agreed with his table-pounding rhetoric ("Bring 'em on!") or they didn't care, being more concerned with abortion, gun control, school prayer, gay marriage and Willie Horton-type issues.
The Salafists (the Wahhabis, the Deobandis and the like) and the Shia extremists, Hezbollah and its type, too, will not be happy until the whole world is like them, back in the 7th Century. And then they will go after each other.
If the USA is guilty of something, it's hubris and incompetence. Not appeasing those who will not, in fact, be appeased. Understand this: Muslim thinking does not encompass compromise. That's a European concept. As is nationhood (forced on an unwilling Ottoman Empire after Turkey was on the losing side in WW I).

"September 11th was caused by Americas foreign policy" ?
I thought it was caused by terrorists.
Whatever their reasoning was is of no bearing on the situation.
It was terrorism. Period.
Any insane idiot who decides to bring about political change by killing innocent people has set themselves up for failure.
No, I absolutely think that there is no possible way of avoiding the provocation of insane terrorists.
No other nation on the planet is liked by every other human on the planet. It's not possible to maintan a 100% approval rating from the whole world. Someone, somewhere is bound to hate you. Someone, somwhere could likely hate the U.S. and also, by coincidence be of the state of mind that they could bring about change through violence. That's always a possibility. The blame for such incidents as 9/11, and the million or so other incidents of terrorist acts that take place across our planet, daily, lies with the terrorist. Not the victims.
I'm absolutely certain that no nation can play nice enough to avoid such attacks. It will continue to happen everywhere.

"There are other ways to protest. And make no mistake, this was not about foreign politics, this was about Muslims killing "infidels" as they are encouraged to do in the Koran. Not my opinion, fact."
Dear brother I am a muslim by birth and i havent read in quran "that killing innocents is allowed", quran strictly Condemn the killing of innocents. The 9/11 incident dont represent the muslims it represent Usama and his followers. Read the yahoo news 4 american soldiers are responsible for rape of a 14 year old girl and they killed her and her 6 year old sister and parents, this doesnt means that all americans are like them. this is their act and they only should be criticised.

I think the target was in the USA but it shouldn't have been the WTC Towers. It should have been the UN building.
After all it was the UN that sanctioned the formation of Israel. And over 95% of the problems in the middle east can be related to the formation of Israel.
But then it has been the UN that has done so little to squelch terrorism world wide. So why would terrorists want to attack their best friend.

There are other ways to protest. And make no mistake, this was not about foreign politics, this was about Muslims killing "infidels" as they are encouraged to do in the Koran. Not my opinion, fact.
And no, the Bible does not anywhere instruct christians to kill any-one.

I don't like the foreign policies of some countries, but I don't go around killing thousands of innocent people...
No country deserves incidents such as that.

Quote from above:

And this is what I believe too. They will not stop until they've taken over the world and as long as their is blood left in me I will not accept it!

Nobody deserves anything and it is always the little Man who suffers, it was an attack not calculated to achive, it was to revenge some strange idioligy so it was wrong and may the perpetrators get Cancer or die horribly.
Take care!
