No offense, but that's the stupidest question I've ever heard. Why don't you ask the parents of the 330+ school children who were stripped and viciously murdered in Beslan who is responsible. There is NOTHING that "target countries" could do to warrant any act of terrorism, whether it's blowing up buses in Israel or knocking down two of the biggest buildings in the world. Saying countries targeted by
Terrorism are in any way responsible for the subhuman acts perpetrated by these a-hole monsters is like saying a rape victim was asking for it for the way she dressed.
Sweden, Denmark, Switzerland, Luxembourg - they're not exactly high profile countries are they. An country able to project any degree of stength, either socially, economically or politically, is a target of terrorists. The US, immediately identifiable as "The West", is a socio-ecomomic and political engine driving this planet. Like it or not the USA is currently the mightiest nation on earth, in every sense of the word (for now anyway). That's why we're target numero uno.
Get it through your head. Militant Islam and the hatred taught by radical imams is solely responsible for terrorism. You cannot appease or make nice with people who literally regard you as subhuman. The Middle East lives in the dark ages and is a repressed society. Obviously for the worse, one of the few things that those societies are good at is hating non-muslims. It's as simple as that. Question the war on terror if you want, but at the very least it's opening up some windows over their to let the light of truth and freedom shine in.
