i agree to all of you - at least partly !

the crime within america is soley based on the vital fact that there the rich become richer and the poor become poorer!
the same in europe!
recently we got the figures out that in germany e.g. crime almost doubled within 2 years.
that means by tax policies and unemployment rates a country creates its crime by just excluding big parts of its society from getting fractions of its wealth!
people struggle for a decent income but cannot sustain themselves by having a decent job. education the same: in germany the prospects for kids from wealthy families are much better than from poor families. as a result those kids won't have a real chance to sustain themselves when they are grown ups. it's just a vicious circle!
and if one hasn't got a chance to leave miserable lifestyle then what has he got to loose?

in the earlier days that was a kind of "american desease" because of that hire and fire policy in companies which leaves families insecure about their future, won't grant an income which supports a family .
but now this american way of life and employment has reached europe as well because european companies have taken over the goddess "shareholder value" and that's the only thing which counts. in the earlier days we had huge family owned companies (thyssen, bosch, AEG, siemans etc.) which had real values; they cared for their employees and their welfare. now in europe many people must have 2 or 3 jobs to sustaine their families but they are still struggeling!
and all this is done with the excues of "globalisation" which is absolutely rubbish but nothing else as an excuse for exploitation!
no wonder that more and more people have got the feeling they need alarm systems for their houses.......

regarding the US "enduring freedom" policy: it just creates more terrorism! we have learned that within the last 5 years the world has become much more instable especially because of terrorism. this is an immediate result of the wars which der bush adminitsration created!

in afghanistan or iraq: when the allies bomb a viilage or wedding party by accident and kill 100 iraqi people these iraqi families get 500 US$ compensation/per killed family member. for 3000 people killed in new york (of which a minority were americans!) the american government has killed so far hundreds of thousends of people.
taking this into consideration i think it's perfectly understandable that muslims have got the impression that their people are not as precious as americans or westerners!

regarding vote for parliament: as soon as they are in office they forget what they promised during campaigns.
