    Nope, they don't pay attention to anything we say. If they did, they wouldn't terrorize us lol. What they do it for is because there living standards are so low they blame us for it. The rest of the world (most of it) in general (not specific people) see the US in bad light. One of the main factors is jealousy.

    No, we're the target of terrorists because our government has chosen to stick our noses into other people's business. And that's fine, sometimes we can intervene in situations, but we must be prepared for backlash. In the Middle East, we're trying very hard to impose a system of government that may not really be in the best interests of the people there. It doesn't help that we switch sides regularly, depending, not on who is right, but who can best support our interests at the time. Perhaps if we could stay out of it for a bit, provide diplomacy instead of force, and really try to find what would best benefit the citizens of other countries, we might not find ourselves the target of terrorists.

    What does racism have to do with the current group of terrorists? It's about Israel and stupidity.

    Thranax, you are correct with one thing that you say, the rest of the world sees you {The USA} in a bad light. But the reasons for this are most accuratly given by Dark knight rides. The people of the world are starting to wake up to the bullshit attitude of the USA government & its ways of changing sides depending on its own wants, needs etc. Jealousy has nothing to do with it. Basically, the attitude of always correct, and if not the USA way, then it is wrong, just really starts to piss people off after a while.
    USA is the target of terrorists because it has pissed off way too many people in too many countries. The USA also happens to be a great target for them because anything that happens there is bound to generate all of the media attention of the world {USA is the world attitude}, and this is passed very quickly to the rest of the world, ie; the other 90% of the big earth. Oh, did I mention the available cash.
    Welcome to reality.
