Is the US an "innocent by-stander" in Bush's "war on terror"?

Question

Did the rebels or insurgents release their aggression on the US because of religious and other belief differences, or did the US and it's allies provoke them with Imperialistic intervention into their personal affairs?

Where is this all heading?

Answer 1

it's nothing to do with religon. US intervention in other countries and support for Israel, is spite of its illegal and racist policies.

It's the foreign policy, stupid.

Answer 2

I think both. The US has for years been an imperialistic type of world leader thinking that if someone needed a tune up they would do it. Well that has changed as the enemy has more or less joined forces in more ways than one. The oil giants have amalgamated to raise the costs per barrel, the terrorists have amalgamated to increase their types of attacks, the places of the attacks and the frequency of the attacks. It use to be one country at a time, but Mr. Bush has bitten off too many countries and now his forces are hurting and the casualties are increasing in number. The division at home about the war has shown that the other side is winning and this is only increasing their attempts to continue their rebel attacks. The depreciation in the US dollar although good for the US trade possibilities is weakening the dollar and it is only time until it continues to slide down in value as gold increases in value. Mr. Bush and his war on terror was in retaliation for the attacks on 911 which his government appeared totally unprepared for and now he is trying to make up for it to the American people by this war that is losing ground daily. You can only irritate the cat by pulling his tail so often until he bares his claws and strikes back. Mr. Bush has irritated the cat and it is striking back, with sharp claws.

Answer 3

excellent question.Seeing some of the narrow minded responses to that question is disheartening.
I think both of your points have some validity.I have travelled extensively and what strikes me is that peolple want to be like us.Condos cars and cash and even white skin.This is the result of modern consumer marketing.Not being able to have these things certainly causes a lot of inner resentment in SOME people.
The classic case of the haves and the have nots.
Intervention in the affairs of other countries stirs up the hornets nest if you will.These peolple may be poor but they are not stupid.After awhile they see that the intervention is for the gain of the interveners,not them.By being a white consumer in America or CANADA or any other G7 country we are as guilty by our passive support as those who wage war on terror.
Natural environments always strive to seek a balance,We are a part of the natural cycle of this planet ,though we often like to think otherwise.So where is this heading/In the long term ,towards balance.How??...............

I sympathize consisting of your favor to have a baby yet it is a foul, undesirable undesirable theory! Legally: no longer only can your pal get fired if stuck, in maximum places it is a legal. and also you're an adjunct. till you want to have a toddler in penal complicated, forget it. Biologically: there's a reason in vitro fertilization is a low yield proposition: The situations do no longer opt for impregnation. it somewhat is why it commonly takes various tries. enable's settle for it - the "favourite" way of fertilization commonly takes a various tries (on regularly happening). Ethically: those who donate sperm income this lower than very strict situations and lower than the reassurance that their genetic textile will be used appropriately. they have a perfect to have that expectation fulfilled. And what would you tell your baby? That they were the fabricated from a criminal offense? Please reassess.

Answer 5

"Innnocent" is the last word anyone can use to describe the U.S.
The president thinks that he owns the world and that they can interfere with the internal poicies of any country in this world.

All the president want to be immortal by leading the Americans to some war or the other. The money that the US has can be spent better....If you are an American tell your president to concentrate more on his domestic policies...."no war is won"-that is the bottom line.

Answer 6

It's all just been a slight misunderstanding. Soon everyone will see each others' point of view and we'll have a big party where libs and neo-cons waltz together, Palestinians and Israelis will have huge celebrations with mass intermarriages taking place and the Pope will convert to Islam. Until then, we'll kill each other with wars, terrorism, torture and kindness.

Answer 7

its really like this,'' the rebels don't like US because the higherheads(meaning osama and the crew) keeps telling them lies about Islam and other religion,saying we must convert all non-Muslims into Muslims,naturally we all don't like it so bush starts a fight,and since bush is an american president,naturally the rebels will hate uS as well

Answer 8

It's not about a "war on terror" or "fighting for freedoms". It's really about THIS!...

Answer 9

It's only a war on terror if you started it. To those in being killed in their own country Americans are the terroist. Who killed more people Afghanistan or America? What does Iraq have to do with America? Why did the US interfere with Iraq? If Iraqis are terrorist then why were they sold weapons during their war against Iran?

Answer 10

I am.

Then again, I'm not storming the White House with a flame thrower, so some victims may think that isn't true.

Answer 11

Why you Americanos keep voting this moron into office??? He is only there because you gave your vote! No but up with his antics or change it as soon as you can!
