What If Foreigners See the United States as an "Exporter of
Terrorism"? (Secret//No Foreigners)

Much attention has been paid recently to the increasing occurrence of
American-grown Islamic terrorists conducting attacks against US targets,
primarily in the homeland. Less attention has been paid to homegrown
terrorism, not exclusively Muslim terrorists, exported overseas to target non-
US persons. This report examines the implications of what it would mean for
the US to be seen increasingly as an incubator and "exporter of terrorism."
(S//NF)
Contrary to common belief, the American export of terrorism or terrorists is not a recent
phenomenon, nor has it been associated only with Islamic radicals or people of Middle
Eastern, African or South Asian ethnic origin. This dynamic belies the American belief that
our free, open and integrated multicultural society lessens the allure of radicalism and
terrorism for US citizens.

And we have a history of supporting Osama bin Laden in his early efforts with Al Qeada in Afghanistan, and we hoisted Saddam Hussein into power in Iraq. Not to mention the many dictators elsewhere in the world we've supported in their terrorist activities, because it was good for US businesses.

The USA is one of the biggest and most prolific exporters of terrorism in the world. It would do much for peace in the world if they stayed home and kept their own house in order and developed genuine friendships with nations and people. Call me old fashioned...

Magda, you're old fashioned Wink Our new [and old] export is terror [but always for money, power, control]. Post 911 we really cranked it up...but never have we been slack on that since America was formed.....with periodic upspurts, in modern times after WWII, and again after the coup that killed JFK. Now, with 911 and the 'War on terror'.... We have met the enemy, and the enemy is us! The USA is not the only current nor certainly historical net exporter of terror, war, imperialism, injustice, poverty, etc....but we certainly are the current 'leader' in this 'field'.
