Caution, extreme sarcasm ahead:

Yep, I'm sure Osama would have turned out to be a wonderful man if only he didn't live in squalor as he grew up.

The evil oppressive US governmental policies throughout the middle east caused the economic/social divide amongst the people there. Sultans didn't exist before we needed their oil.

There's no need for war. Everything can be talked through and so long as we "understand" each other we can live in peace and harmony. No nation will ever again covet another's land/resources.

Sarcasm off.

Seriously though, absolutely the US has had some horrendous policies (just as every other nation has) and we are typically guilty of looking out for #1 to the detriment of others we deal with. But that does NOT mean that 9/11 or any terrorist acts are excusable or understandable. In the long term there absolutely needs to be changes made in dealing with MANY countries. In the SHORT TERM we need to protect our citizens. Even if we could change the societies that produce terrorists overnight, there are still far too many willing to die just to kill the "infidels".
