Just like how we bring a lot of our problems on ourself. Obviously anyone trying to kill people is bad and evil and they are wrong. But we can clean up our side of the problem. At the very least you can talk about the problems. Ignoring them and acting like we are perfect, hardly solves anything.

We started out protecting democracy (which you call spitting in somebody's face), and then we had to fight terrorism while protecting and later spreading democracy. Those are not morally wrong actions. I disagree with my government on a lot of things, but this is not one of them. And Al Qaeda literally believes that our women's skirts are too short. They don't even think women should show their faces, much less their legs. That is part of why they hate us and want to kill us. Just think what effect Wild On and Girls Gone Wild have on Al Qaeda.
