Yeah, I know there are people with bad intentions. It's also somewhat our fault that those people hate us -- consider the continual American-led meddling in the Middle East since the 50s (before that, it was the British). If we want to be safe, we should butt the hell out of places where we're not wanted and improve our OWN country.

One more reason why I'm thinking that a nice, out of the way, non-Euro East European country would be the way to go in the future.
