>>>It has always been my understanding the terrorism began in response to the Gulf War

Oh Dear God..

It is a HUGE mistake to think that terrorism is a response to anything.. they hate for the sake of hating... I don't know why this is so hard for people to understand -> the agenda is for you to die.

You can't ignore them, you can't buy them off, you can't negotiate with them.. they only way to appease them is to die.

I'd rather not.
