Why do they hate us ?

It seems that we have a lot of troubles to understand why many people in Islamic countries hate us, and especially why Bin Laden hates us. Help to find out why Bin Laden hates us and why 9-11 happened.
Why, do you think, does Bin Laden hate the US?
Because we are so rich
Because we have so much freedom
Because we are so smart
Because we support a nondemocratic, supressive regime in his home country
Because we support the Palestinian Holocaust
Because we support dictators all over the world
Because we bombed a medical factory in Sudan
Because we terrorize other governments
Because we do anything for oil
Because the US is the worst rogue state in the world
Because we have such tremendous double standarts
Because as the most powerful country we have become very arrogant
In return, why do you think we hate Bin Laden so much?
Because he tries to free his country from the US backed, repressive Saudi regime
Because he is against the Palestinian Holocaust
Because he is religious
Because he has the guts to face the wold strongest power
Because he fights for his people
Because he ridicules US double standarts
Because he is so rich
Because he is so smart
Because he is so free
Do you think it is a good idea to use violence in order to reach one's goals? Indicate where you think violence is (or was) approriate.
to get US indepence from the Brittain empire
to liberate the Saudi people from their suppressive, US backed dictator regime
to liberate the victims of the nazi Holocaust
to liberate the victims of Israel's Holocaust in Palestinia
to overthrow government that do not follow US rules
to counter terror acts from US government
to counter terror acts from non-US governments
to counter all terror acts equally
Considering that US-backed terror acts have killed many more people than the Bin Laden terror act in NY, what should be done?
Bin Laden should be put to court, as should all US officials involved with terror acts
Only Bin Laden should be put to court
US officials involved in older terror should be tried before Bin Laden's recent
Put yourself in Bin Laden's situation. Assume a foreign power is backing a dictator regime in the US, no elections would be allowed, the media would be heavily censured, political opponents would be either imprisoned or forced to leave the country. You would know that in order to get rid of the dictatorship you would first have to stop its backing by the foreign power. Would you consider violance to get freedom?
Yes, I would become a freedom fighter or terrorist, how ever you want to call it
Yes, but only after having tried any other means
No, I am against terrorism
