I've been misquoted in High School, but not recently. So for that, I thank you for the change of pace.

I do not agree, however, that the message I am trying to convey is that "Americans are better than everyone else". In fact, all of my responses have included my theory; they don't like what we have.

And analizing terrorism, with large words and phrases, is entertaining but useless. Terrorists, with or without religion or governmental excuses, cannot be tolerated. At no point should we say "Sure, they killed many of our people. But look at the way they think." If "the way they think" includes killing people for the sake of disagreement in life, then they don't deserve the time spent on theorizing. Killing people, citizen at that, is not a discussion topic. It's a crime that cannot go without punishment.
