Forums - Politics Discussion - Should the world blame America for all these terrorist attacks?

It's like you think ' terrorists ' have one mindset.
They are all after the same goal... Nope

Terrorism existed before 9/11. Just look at World War One. The Black Hand group killed Franz Ferdinand of Austria, and that started the war.



You know it deserves the GOTY.

After 9/11 and some would say before, America became what some would call "World Police". Wars in Iraq and Afghanistan and rumors of war and little skirmishes around the rest of the world.

We have made Terrorist, despite what they say in videos and other propaganda, afraid of the United States. So what do they do? They attack our friends and neighboring countries so that they can still get their point across, but stay away from our Wrath. The only problem is that every  other country suffers. Sure, America is safe, but what about our allies who have to bear the brunt of terrorism for us?

I just think the World would have been better off without America policing it.

 

What are you thoughts?


Your bias in this thread is showing.  It is like you are asking a question...when in reality you are making a statement.  This is a very passive aggresive tactic...which when it concerns games and movies is kind of silly...but when it concerns politics and religion and war it is dangerous.  

I really hope this thread dies a swift death since I don't think there is much good that can come from it here.  There are plenty of people, figures, countries, religions, concepts to point the finger at...but in no way is this a result of "The Americans."  



We should blame religions misunderstandings.

I'd say it's right to not judge anyone.

No. And these terrorists come from places where religion has a big influence - Afghanistan, Pakistan, Iraq, Saudi etc.

The only people who should be blamed are those hate preachers, the financial backers and, of course, the terrorists themself. I am not a religious person but I truly hope there is some sort of higher being(s) who will give those fanatics the punishment they deserve.



      
Yup...RO friggin rocked  

Religion is to blame, pure and simple.

People throughout history, from various religions have fought and killed for what essentially is an idea.

The idea of religion can help people and give them "hope", but it is also the number one cause of death in the world.

I hope in the future, the world will realize this before we destroy ourselves over something that simply does not exist.

For those who do believe in a god, I mean no disrespect and envy your faith that there is something greater out there... Me personally? Aliens is the greater power I choose to believe.



Lets blame the perps. People must be held responsible for their own actions. We can talk about causality all day, but in the end, people make their own decisions.



Yes.
