Chinu, I'm going to respond twice to your post:

1. Since when has the Arab lifestyle become the frame of reference for the US?

Since 9/11, when 15 Saudis participated in the worst terrorist (or direct) attack upon the United States since the Civil War.

3,000 innocent non-combatants (Americans and foreign) WERE DELIBERATELY TARGETED, and died in that attack. Actually, 50,000 people were targeted in the WTC attack, for that is the number of people who would have been in those buildings had the attack occurred a mere two hours later.

50,000 people Chinu. 50,000 people targeted to be killed that morning. And only by the grace of God, and some dedicated public safety and security personnel, was the casualty count kept to 3,000.

That's what gives us the right.

Just as Pearl Harbor gave us the right to conduct total war against Japan and Germany, questioning and demanding change within their lifestyle and society in order to prevent another war initiated by them.

And if you can't understand that, then maybe you need to move to the Mid-East, where your loyalty apparently lies.
