Why is this such a shock and surprise?
Our government as a habit raids, carpet bombs, and terrorizes other countries as an act of 'global policing'.
Don't be surprised that other countries strike back.
Sure we're all comfortable behind our TV's, nice cars, and gaming setups, but what we have done to other countries to 'solve their problems' (Can we say Kosovo?) has probably lead to this very action.
I don't condone terrorism (it's disgusting and terrible) but I can see a lot more of this happening if we don't stop policing the world.
Wake up America, we need to stop getting involved in global situations. Aim the nukes and solve our own domestic problems - there are plenty of them.
