"You don't think maybe US support for Israel had just a little to do with this?"

As I said, I think it has everything to do with it. I'm just surprised nobody else seems to. Israel has had to endure this type of suicide terror on an almost constant basis for some time now. It's different when it's "over there" and it doesn't seem to effect us directly. That has changed, and now we will see some action.

My concern is that after some token retaliatory strikes against Bin Lauden, the easiest way to make this problem go away would be to shift the US focus in the Middle East, to Israel's supposed "intransigence". Of course we could not be seen to be giving in to terror, but.....
I hope this does not happen but I think it very well might.
