I wonder how there are so many people who can attribute deaths to a newsweek article yet completely deny even the notion that american foreign policy might have contributed to 9/11. Newsweek, solely through the power of the american press has the power and the sway to singlehandedly control muslim american relations, while apparently america's foreign policy has nothing at all to do with muslim american relations. Brilliant.
