First Question:
The way I solve problems is to find the cause of the problem, and then try to do something about that cause. So when thinking about terrorism, my first thought is to wonder why so many people hate the US so much, and are willing to die for that? I've heard people say its because "they hate the freedom we enjoy" but frankly I think that's a cop out, not a real answer. Sandman, did you get the chance to talk to any Iraqi people while you were stationed there, and did you talk to them at all about this?

Maybe the Iraqi people should have been asking themselves why Saddam hated them so much. That could have helped their situation.
