Why Do They Hate Us?

Let's play why do they hate us, again.

You remember the June 2nd bombing of the Danish embassy in Pakistan?

Well, those responsible are vowing to keep killing the Danes:

"As for my final message to the worshippers of the cross in Denmark, I tell them, Allah permitting, this isn't the first nor the last retaliation," al-Makki says. "We will wipe you from the face of the Earth."

The June 2 blast killed six people, including a Danish citizen. Al-Qaida claimed responsibility, saying it was carrying out Osama bin Laden's promise to exact revenge for the 2006 publication by Danish newspapers of a dozen cartoons showing the Prophet Muhammad.


So, liberating the Iraqis from Saddam's cruel grip or publishing objectionable cartoons are both reasons to kill Westerners.

Just so we're all clear on why they hate us and want to murder us in large numbers.

So which of our policies do we need to change to satisfy our jihadi enemies?
