It might help if we stopped giving money to the abhorrent corrupt regimes. It's all well and good to complain about those regimes - but in doing so, you really need to understand that WE create them. This is the root of the anti-Americanism in the Middle East - not the "white devil" issue that you seem the believe. It is beneficial to the abhorrent corrupt regimes to maintain control of the people in the Middle East through dictatorships. These dictatorships are financed by Western capitalism. Off-shoots of those dictatorships use a redefined version of Islam to appeal to the oppressed people - resulting in terrorism primarily directed towards Western capitalism. Remove the funding for the dictatorships and the real connection of Western capitalism to the suffering of the oppressed people will start to dissolve.
Or just blow 'em all up and not "win" anything anyway.
