I agree with both Amos and Don Firth.

Teribus -- you don't address such issues as so-called "legal" terrorism, i.e. the US bombing Iraq without any sound reason to do so.
You don't address the issues that created terrorism against the US in the first place, and that is absolutely necessary if you are going to conduct dialogue on this issue.

So answer this please: why did terrorist attacks occur against the US on 9/11? Why not against another country, Israel for instance?
