Why do the Islamists want "Death to America"? It's because we won't leave them alone. Why won't we leave them alone? There is big money to be made in a war on terror. So we keep provoking them, then we respond with outrage when they retaliate. They only care about killing infidels. If we left them alone, they will find enough infidels in their various sects to keep them happily killing each other for decades. The War on Terror is a loser for us. Look at all the freedom we've lost, and it isn't over. We need to tell big business and the defense contractors we are done sending Americans overseas to kill and be killed so they can make outrageous profits for themselves and their cronies in government.

Cut defense spending in half, and bring all our troops home. Let the rest of the world sort out their problems without us. We have been suckers for too long.
