The (Real) Reason Why They Hate Us

GOP Presidential hopeful Rep. Ron Paul (R-Texas) was booed yesterday when he said the following:
“Osama bin Laden and al Qaeda have been explicit, and they wrote and said that we attacked because you had bases on our holy lands in Saudi Arabia, you do not give Palestinians a fair treatment,” Paul said before being interrupted by more boos. “I didn’t say that, I’m just trying to get you to understand what the motive was behind the bombings.”
It is therefore more important than ever to know why they hate us. Hint: It is not because the Muslim world hates our freedoms.

An expert explains:
According to Michael Scheuer, who headed the CIA’s bin Laden unit from 1996 to 1999: "In the long run, we’re not safer because we’re still operating on the assumption that we’re hated because of our freedoms, when in fact we’re hated because of our actions in the Islamic world. There’s our military presence in Islamic countries, the perception that we control the Muslim world’s oil production, our support for Israel and for countries that oppress Muslims such as China, Russia, and India, and our own support for Arab tyrannies."

  1. Especially fascinating are the DNA molecules and precision machining virus models, so you will get get} a better in-depth} take a look at|have a glance at} these microscopic objects. Use Shapeways 3D printing companies to create complex 3D printed merchandise for you. Due to its aggressive pricing, generous build area, and automated print-bed leveling, the Vyper is an efficient choice for 3D-printing newbies or hobbyists on a price range. Some of our test prints seemed a bit rough-hewn, so print perfectionists will want to avoid this one, however its minimal assembly necessities shouldn’t deter anybody from buying it on that rating. The Original Prusa Mini is a compact, open-frame 3D printer that consistently produced high-quality prints in our testing. The Mini has a somewhat smaller build area than the Original Prusa i3 MK3S+, requires some assembly, and needs to be calibrated.
