Ah.. how refreshing. The sensibility of seriously addressing the root causes of the problem rather than reacting to the symptoms.

Very nice.

Sure [img]smile.gif[/img] All we have to do is convert to Islam and pledge to become a religious ditatorship...yep seems like an easy, reasosnable and cheap solution to me... Oh , and we have to repress women, do away with civil rights and basicly agree to live like people did in the 17th century....
[/QUOTE]I was talking about the "real" root causes of terrorism, not those dodgy made-up ones born in cultural prejudice.

Root cause #1 we can examine is the neo-con policy drive to 're-mold' the Middle East in America's image, preferably by force, or threat of force it seems.
