You see on that question page there're answerers who believe that if the U.S. stops supporting Israel, there won't be any terrorism. Is that true or not? Why do those answerers believe that? Is that based on any historical facts, or just blah-blah?

Unlikely to have any effect.
While US involvement in Israeli conflicts may contribute to their anger, most of the people who hate the US would continue doing so regardless of what the US does with (or to) Israel.

That is the number one reason not the ONLY reason. The issue is now far more complex especially after US's involvement in destroying Iraq.
Are you aware that western nations through the UN created Isreal in 1947, taking land away from "Arabs" to do so. Are you aware that this created much hatred for the west?
Who said ANYTHING about stopping support of Israel? Are you searching for anti-semites? Does stating historical facts make you an anti-semite? Should anyone who talks about Middle East history be censored in your opinion?

I believe it will have a significant effect. The US foreign policy is based on greed and lust for power and control, so we have made many enemies even without supporting Israel. But the "terrorists" have made it clear that it is our support of the State of Israel that they are figting against.
News reported around the world makes this plain, but here in the States we get spoon-fed whatever "news" we receive.

Israel was created when oil production started coming about in the middle east. Israel was created to cause tension amongst the arab countries.The majority of arab countries will never accept Israel as a legitimate country.They see it for what it is. A country established to help America get a foothold on their oil.

NO! Just blah-blah, Jihad terrorists are savages who want to kill all non-Muslims, We are fortunate to be fighting them over in Iraq and Afghanistan instead of the streets of all American cities.
REMEMBER 9/11

Those are people who have their heads buried in the sand.
If every nation suddenly abandoned Israel, we'd all still have to face the fact that there are terrorists who will impose their ideology upon us and other people across the world...and we will have to submit or die.

Absolutely NOT!!!It is NOT TRUE that there won't be anymore terrorism, that is wishful thinking. These "people" are very sadly mistaken in their beliefs.
It is NOT based on any historical fact, it is, like you printed, Blah-blah-blah!!!

Only after every church is burned down and every woman is locked up in their house. Then the Jihadists will settle down and claim victory and you will be a Islamic Fundamentalist
