I get it.My point is, as I've made in other posts, that the duty of government is to provide for the best interests of the country it represents. Whereas the average citizen may want the world to be a happy place filled with sunshine, butterflies, rainbows and kittens; the government has only the responsibility to provide that (or as close as possible) within the borders of its own country.
If terrorism is a real and ongoing threat in your own country, blame the government that is responsible for taking actions to prevent it; which is not the US government, unless you happen to live on US soil.
The US's only interest in Iraq is it's oil. As far as the US government is concerned, it's the only thing in the area worth considering. This may sound harsh and mean, but it's business and business always boils down to the bottom line.
Of course the US government doesn't give a rat's ass about terrorist threats affecting other countries... they only care about their own country, as any realistic government has the obligation to.
Taking it out on Americans as a whole is a sign of total ignorance.
