for me its because of the leaders and millionairs who help and support the destruction of the country..they always having a fight instead of helping to build a paradise country...middle east for me is a hidden paradise...lets give a hand to develop it not to destroy it...

Ok, so basically this is an issue that no one will ever be able to answer. Seeing as how this "holy" war has been occurring for the last few decades or so, I think it all comes down to who was there first. Think about it. If I stormed into your house tonight and demanded that everyone get out - what would you do? If you saw your wife and daughter raped and mutilated - what would you do? If you son was walking home from school, throws a rock at a tank and is shot dead - what would you do? This is what happens EVERY single time. Naturally, the Palestinian people must retaliate. And then they get blamed. So, what does it come down to? Territory. Man is territorial by nature and is greedy - the more the better. Hence, the never ending Isreal-Palestine war.

Because everyone else in the region HATES us.  They are our boys in the Middle East, so that we have a lever into regional policy.

Israel is definitely a flash point in the mideast and a big reason why there is such a reift between the US and most of the Muslim world.   I have no clue why we continue to support them to the extent that we do ---- likley due all the political contributions in the US ---- We let Israel have a secret nuclear weapons cache, but we threaten Iran for the same thing - no wonder we are viewed the way we are.   I am not saying give the land back. but clearly the borders need to be reset and a lot more settlements taken down --- The US policy on Israel has not worked in the US's favor in over 4 decades ---- It really needs to change

I've heard both sides of this story from many facets. The truth is that only leaders and rulers start wars, not the people who work and raise their families. There is something wrong with this "world view" isn't there?

Look at the Bush's personal financial envolvement,"OIL".\n These regions need love and understanding of their cultures,and their ways.violence only grows.They are capable of fixing their problems themselves,without interferance from our region.

Geopolitically the industrialized world is totally dependant on oil from the Middle East.  There is no industrialized nation that does not have in their national interest the seeking of a guarantee that there must be an uninterrupted flow of oil into their nation.  They all hover around the Middle East like moths to a light, ever manipulating, bribing, arming, trading, selling technology, whatever it takes, to buddy up with the Sheiks.  Use simple "rule out" and you find there are many countries with worse dictators and political systems around the world that we have not, or would ever consider invading to "set those people free."  It is  only because there is oil in Iraq that we even know where they are on the map!  It is hard, but it is true.

Some people did ask why. One of the responses was that the Middle East was tired of all the damage being done to it and all the interference by the U.S. government not to mention all the deaths caused by U.S. behind the scenes.

I believe it is all about jealousy. I mean, look how much the west has as compared to the Arab States. If it were not for their oil, those countries would not have much more to offer. However, like the guy above said, trap a rat in the corner and it will defend itself. However,the rat is going up against the king of the jungle, a den of lions. It does not take much to see that they too strive to have power. But they wouldnt know how to control their power so thats the reason they cannot have nuclear arms. As far as Russia, they are in it for the money...what else. For the same reason they did not authorize the US invading Iraq, they were purchasing lot of oil from Iraq and selling it to the US. Its all politics but for Iran, they are out of their league.

The Middle East IS overrun with terrorists. Where have you been? Europe seems to be stocking up on white flags. all out war is a definite possibility. That's why we should do everything possible to stop them now. If we don't, they will only get stronger & the war, when (not if) it comes will be bloodier.

People in the middle east are loving to all nations and love all human kinds. The only problem they have is the governments, people hate governments not the people. And the hate of government is because of bad policies western governments have had towards the mid east

While not all terrorism emanates from the Middle East, the way things are today, the majority of it does.  \n\nAutocratic regimes (dictators, presidents for life, etc.) tend to breed poverty, dissent, and violence.\n\nIraq was not only brutal to its own people, but was providing itself as a staging area for terrorism.\n\nDemocracies do not attack each other.\n\nSo the United States gains:\n\n1.  The loss of a staging area for the terrorists\n\n2.  A democracy in an area without one\n\n3.  Possibly, the impetus to get the peoples of the surrounding countries to demand democracy for themselves

The radicals driven by religion because of promises of 72 virgins in heaven for waging Jihad against the west has affected us more than we think.\n\nThe HUNDREDS of BILLIONS of dollars spent on the war alone plus substancial millitary budgets have taken so much money away from other areas that need that money such as welfare, education, infrastructure.. and the list goes on.\n\nUnfortunately the terrorists in the middle east want to kill anyone who isn't a Muslim, and even if they are they'll kill you for being in the United States if you are not involved in such splinter cells.... Lukily they do not have that capability...yet.\n\nI hope this answers your question!

This is actually a far more complicated issues.  The sentiments against US foreign policy started long ago.  The nature of the complaints about of policy has also changed over the years.  \n\nSome argue that the US is trying to wipe out Islam.  \nSome argue we are trying to corrupt them and force them to our devilish ways.\nSome argue we don't send them enough money.  \nSome argue we don't do enough to protect them from corrupt leaders.\n \nThere is no one reason that the Middle East is opposed to our policy.  But, for these folks just mention the war issue -> they need to take a nice hard look at the human rights track record of Middle Eastern countries.  Did someone miss the memo about Hussien tossing pregnant women into wood chippers?  Did someone miss the part about how long journalists is countries like Iran (which is not Arabs) spend in prison for supporting reformist views?

I love all of people who are effortting to get their certains. Such as Palestinian, Iraqi etc.\n\nActually, we don't have any other country in that position except of Palestine. Israel is a big lie that is saying to humanity.\nSome years ago (About 60 years) jewish occupied Palestine with help of GB. At that time untill now, jewish that they have immigrated to Palestine are killing people, destroying their houses and run out Palestinian from their country.\n\nIsraelies are just aggressor and occupier.

Everyone is the West is doing all they can to build a second Arab state in Palestine, for the still stateless Palestine Arabs.\n\nIts the Arabs who hate the idea. Because it would mean they would have to give up on their main goal -- destroying Israel.
