I am surprised that Neal managed to make it through this entire story without once mentioning what the CIA calls "Blowback". Also why not mention the train bombing that happpened in this area a few years back, done by the same people. Blowback comes from the resentment people feel towards America's overreaching interventionist foreign policy. There's an entire book written on the phenomena by Chalmers Johnson. Its a very real thing. Why didn't Neal mention American jets bombing Pakistan without the permission of the Pakistani government. Don't you think Americans would feel resentment towards Pakistanis if they started bombing targets in America at the disapproval of the American government even if they said it was for Pakistani safety? Lets wake it up guys. Sure Islamic Fascism is very real, but so is blowback and it must be addressed in order to get these terrorist retaliations lowered. Americans have to stop believing the anti-American myth that America can simply do whatever it likes in the world and not expect other countries resentments to cause blowback. The American empire is causing this country to go broke by believing in a 'police the world' mentality. Its time to get back to traditional conservatism and stop all the interventionist nonsense that simply comes back around to hurt America.
