You should really study up on our history. If it were about religion then ALL Muslims would hate us. They do not.
Terrorists are able to influence young, impressionable minds NOT because of religion, but because of our actions in the region. For numerous examples of this, read ANY comment made by OBL. He repeatedly states why he does what he does.
You can believe it is about religion....but OBL wasn't all that religious. He was more of an ideologue who believed that the West was disenfranchising the Muslim world with our global policies.
I cant really gove you an answer,but what I can give you is a way to a solution, that is you have to find the anglde that you relate to or peaks your interest. A good paper is one that people get drawn into because it reaches them ln some way.As for me WW11 to me, I think of the holocaust and the effect it had on the survivors, their families and those who stood by and did nothing until it was too late.
