I'm not defending the BS foreign policies enacted by the US government specifically in the middle east. I would even go further in that regard, having the US prop up that cancer called saudi arabia and having used jihadism during the Cold War in order to proxy fight the "godless" USSR.
In any case my point still stands, I don't see why you felt the need to bring people's supposed racist views on (insert random ethnicity) when there's a discussion about random terrorist attacks on civilians in countries that have fuck all to do with the US foreign policies. Unless you prove me wrong, none of those groups you mentioned before is going around planting bombs with the specific purpose of killing civilians in different countries than their own.
Most political terrorism is done against military/political targets in order to achieve a specific goal of the organization. That is why groups like the IRA, ETA, etc can at least be dealt with in a rational way. There's no amount of rationality to reach people who believe mythology and that their goal in this life is to spread said mythology by violent means across the world.
