39. Unfortunately, a lot of people deny the obvious

Many Americans think that they attacked us strictly for religious reasons, or that they didn't attack us at all but the US Government actually conducted 9-11 - all completely ridiculous.

Our aggressive military campaign against Iraq from Saudi soil, and our genocidal sanctions against Iraq certainly contributed to the rage.

A large percentage of Americans believe US and Israeli propaganda concerning US and Israeli conflicts. Many Americans have no clue about Israel's Apartheid government, its ethnic cleansing of the Palestinians, or the extent of US support for Israel. Our media certainly isn't going to help.
