Does the sheer number of civilian targeted attacks carries out by muslim affiliated terrosrist cells shock anybody here?
If the Arabic countries cracked down on terrorists operating out of their country, then the US, Israel, UK etc etc wouldn't have to attack them, and the muslims could clear their name up.
Notice how apart from a couple of Israeli suicide bombings, and stupid american attacks on civilian planes, the majority of attacks agains Muslims and Arabic nations are MILITARY targets (which unfortunately can have civilian casualities). But there is NO justification for the sheer number of CIVILIAN targeted suicide bombings by muslim terrorists.
The arabic nations have to have some control over their citizens.

It's amazing the fucked up stuff America has done in the middle-east.
Also because we back Israel people want to hurt America but why do we support Israel? Just because of zionists in America or because we need an ally in the region or what?

Good read. You know if the arabs weren't so determined to destroy israel (attacking it from the day it was created) Israel would be much smaller (each time it was attacked by arab countries it took some land from them), and maybe there would be peace.

I have no idea why America backs Israel.
But all i know is that even if Israel wasn;t there, the Muslims would all be attacking eachother.
They all talk about their 'Muslim' brothers, but in reality, the only thing that unites them is a common hate for Israel. And even then, they are too cowardly to wage open war, resorting to secretly funded terrorist attacks.
And then the Israeli citizens, US, UK, spanish, Indian etc and innocent muslim citizens who just want to live a peaceful life and watch their children grow up have to suffer becuase of a bunch of fuckheads that the governments do not want to rope in, becuase most of them are corrupt too. Oh, and when i say innocent muslim citizens...love how they all cheered when 9/11 occured.
