Could be. I remember reading that Alqaeda targetting new nations. |
Actually Turkey rebuffed the U.S. in the Iraq war, I have seen in some places (BBC) where inexplicably the U.S. and Israel are to be blamed for these attacks, indirectly. I am puzzled by this kind of mentality, remove the U.S from the Middle East, remove Israel, and those who profess the rest of the world to be heathens will continue their savage display of ignominious and degenerate conducts of murder and barabarism, for they are intent on a brand of political control that will sink the Middle East into the Stone Ages, I hope that Muslims will wake up and eventually speak loudly against this.
Issues such as Palestinian statehood, Freedom and Justice in the Middle East are important but bombing innocents into eternity, will never yield a satisfactory outcome. Imagine if Dr. Martin Luther King Jr, Nelson Mandela, Muhatmas Ghandi resorted to violence. There has to be something to learn from these people, I would hope.
