47. Who's making excuses....

Wed May 24, 2017, 09:45 AM

May 2017

terrorists are violent (and many are women).

What is the reason that people became committed to violence? I just saying that many of these terrorist organizations target the Europeans and US as the cause for their misery.

If we didn't see the military as the answer to every problem, and spend endlessly on a war footing, maybe we wouldn't be creating the next generation of terrorists.

A cause is not an excuse, but it's a reason to change the way the US acts as a country.
