Friend asks: "Why was London attacked?"
- Thread starter Starks

Yes Spain was part of the coalition of meddling in the middle east till then. Lets not forget the Spanish Empire also.
The dreamworld answer is "Because the British supported the Iraq War."
The real answer, only to be given to non-sheople, is this:

They were attacked because they are in Iraq just like we are!!!
And if Rudy thinks the hostages taken in Munich during the Olympics was because the Arabs hate the germans, I want to find out where he is getting those drugs. You know, just for reference.

Bliar and Brown's NuLabour government is a satellite of the NeoConservative doctrine of global empire building.
Hardly surprising than that muslims living in the UK are royally pissed off. I kinda understand their motivation for bombing the metro in London, though of course I don't condone it.

Spain and Britain were in the coalition of the willing.
British were messing around there long before though. Watch Lawrence of Arabia.

rhetoric question?
spain had over a thousand troops in iraq and was bombed right before the spanish elections - the new government pulled out of iraq.
it's a classic case of suicide terrorism to influence public opinion in a democracy because of occupation, as described by robert pape in "dying to win" - one of the books on rudy's reading list.

I am a little worried about this argument though because Holland is about as pacifist as it gets and there have been some nasty situations there recently.

you know what, no one here in europe is surpriced some muslims hate the usa, because of the way you go around the world killing ppl. as a matter of fact I cant believe you even have this debate. I hope you are aware about 1 million iraqis have been killed in irak and on top of that polluted with depleted uranium, causing sickness for the next 25 millions years. What you think , if you stop doing things like this, maybe you will be more liked ? ?????
do you only watch britney spears ?
noone I know is surpriced here, when you were attacked. (if you were)
it is nice you are waking up though...

I don't think we should deny that senseless terrorism does and will continue to occur even if we end the meddling and occupation of other countries. Radicals will NOT go away no matter what.
But will attacks lessen? Most likely because it will be harder for the radicals to recruit as we aren't fulfilling their stereotypes. It will be difficult to find many people motivated enough to take their own life unless they really feel there is a gross injustice against them or their country.
However, the debate should really be about the solution.
Our current solution is to have a base in every country, fund puppet governments, and constantly involve ourselves in every conflict. This solution costs the taxpayer billions and billions of dollars and is almost self-perpetuating the problem as more terrorists are created as we dispose of the one's we catch/kill. This approach is no longer affordable.
A more economical solution would be to strengthen our borders and home security and deal with the individual occurances of terrorism (which are pretty few and far between). We were right to go after Bin Laden and hunt him down along with the other Al Queda operatives. We were wrong to expand this into nation building and invading countries.
If a terrorist group or country ever became powerful enough for them to be true threat to our national security and the American people felt action needed to be taken, we would have Congress declare war and we would fight the battle, disable their capabilities, and then come home. We would be united in the effort because the authority came from the people and from Congress instead of bowing to a single President's whims.
We must take the more economical approach for the sake of our economy.
