"They turn to terrorism because they hate American policies" is an incredibly simplistic point of view. True, they use "American presence in the holy land" as a reason to hate America, but the truth is that the ultimate goal of many Muslim radicals is the destruction of any government that doesn't govern itself by Islamic law. And what would drive people to kill tons of innocent people, many of them their own people, in the name of some "higher cause," and think that God is going to reward them, has to be a more complicated issue than "they hate America."

Now the US invading Iraq did
