Do you feel that U.S. policies increase the threat of terrorism?

I am honestly thinking about the increased threats of terrorism just today four men were arrested in a plot to blow up the jet fuel supply for Kennedy Airport here in Queens NY. Many of the businesses here are owned by people we claim to suspect and these businesses cater to our food and energy supplies. We are so hypnotized by the color of money that we don't realize what's going on before our eyes. Yes the added fees and income to tax is great but is it worth the threat of even more terrorism? Don't get me wrong there are many innocent people here who deserve to have an honest opportunity and just happen to be of the same bloodline as many terrorist but what I'm getting at is if the policies concerning the entry of these people here in this country and their ability to start businesses without being actual citizens were not so easy then maybe it would be easier to weed out the trouble makers. It's hard to limit someone when they have the money to make things appear as they really are not. Many of these businesses sell guns under the table and are open 24 hours a day selling drugs to our young people. When they do get caught for illegal activities they open up a few days later under a new name of someone else who is not a citizen and then just recycle identities. How much more are we gonna be able to take learning that many of these people come and learn right here in the U.S. to use the information to destroy, hurt or harm us is scaring me. What about you? Do you find yourself concerned about this? Do you see the groups of young people hanging around the 24 hour stores where you live? How many of them are owned by American citizens? Or am I being paranoid?

I do not think that any of our polocies will stop them from killing. I dont think that us being in iraq has anything to do with it. The cells were here and the plans go way back. I think that that some people have a false impression that there are some kind of negotiations or special terms that will make thewm stop. They are terrorists....and they will always be out to hurt and to destroy Americans....
