Why does everyone assume that because there are people who hate us and try to fight us, we must be doing something wrong? Is there any reason to believe that the existence of these terrorists means we are doing something wrong? Are the goals of terrorists or the reasons behind their actions automatically reasonable ones? Force of conviction does not imply a basis in fact. Saying that we must change our policies in the Middle East because of this attack is the same as saying that we should agree to the demands of the terrorists. We should evaluate the situation there in an attempt to resolve the problems. We should step up our efforts to do so. We may, however, not be able to find a solution, after all, we've been striving to create peace in the region for many years. There may not be a solution.
