You may be correct from the point of the foot soldiers view for their holy war. But in all reality it goes way back to Bin Lad in not wanting American forces on holy soil in Saudi Arabia. He is a Saudi national,and his family are among the those who rule that nation.

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.
