In reply to the discussion: Attacks On Mosques And Harassment Of Muslims Skyrocketing In America [View all]M Kitt
(208 posts)54. Umm, think I'll only address the final statement of that post, per the brief replies you've made
"US was made the main offender VS world peace for a few years"
As the result of GW/Cheney administration's NeoCon war ambitions.
We're at least in complete agreement about that, except for the scale. The United States is still held accountable for those actions within Middle East nation states, NOW, today. Global memory of our actions isn't likely to go away any time soon.
Continuing to generate more of those "Radicalized Fundamentalists" we previously discussed.
And since we still have ground troops in Afghanistan and Iraq (among other locations), duration of those military involvements has actually been across about 15 years, continues to this day. Not "for a few years" as you remarked above.
Accuracy is important.

Muslims are such peaceful and welcoming people. They would be the last to resort of violence...
