I don't think you have thought this through. What do you think life in the US would be like if we were occupied by a Muslim nation that was bent on changing our 'regime'...to what??

What question are you trying to ask? "to what" isn't relevant. You really can't do it, can you? You can't put yourself in the other person's shoes and understand how it might look from their perspective.

The point is that people who feel powerless lash out in irrational ways. That doesn't make it right, but refusing to recognize that, refusing to understand that provoking desperate people will only make things worse, is idiotic.
