By making Americans afraid that our involvement in the region is the reason for these attacks they hope that the terror can convince American voters to keep our government on a leash.

They have made demands, maybe you missed the videos. They weren't televised much, the goverment convinced the media to not show them because of the possibility of hidden messages to domestic terror cells.
OK I knew about the military bases and I assumed it was obvious but thanks for posting.

What my thought(s) are then focused on is why does not the USA just declare our actions Imperialistic? Why is everything masked to make it appear as though the hethens & disindiginous are going to kill us. If these actions are solely to keep the rich..filthy rich and to keep our SUVs and DVDs working why not just state it it? I feel it is kept in the present day version because it isnt moral.
