Ted, as usual, we go back to semantics. Radicals are those who support extreme positions. To me, suicide bombings are pretty extreme; hence those who support it are radicals.

As for Americans, I'm sure after 9/11 many people have taken more extreme positions against terrorism. But that hardly makes America radical as a whole. Heck, even Bush himself has shied away from his so-called "Bush Doctrine" in favor of a more centrist stance w.r.t. Palestine (though still not as pro-Palestine as the EU).

I think instead of becoming radicalized, Americans are much more eager to return to "normal." Heck, I sure am.
