Adam Livix was arrested in November for the possession of explosives planning a terrorist attack. He was taken into custody with various types of ammunition and he had admitted under interrogation he made preliminary surveys of targets. Livix had come into the region in 2013 where he was suspected and wanted for drug felonies. He lived on the West Bank, and claims he is a Christian. He then moved into Israel, spending a year there illegally. He falsely claimed that he was a Navy Seal and he solved unauthorized crimes. He admitted that he wanted to bomb Muslim Holy Sites.,
I think that America has overdone the portrayal of the image of the Middle Eastern people. The majority of us has viewed all of them as terrorists, even though not all of them are. In the end, the calculations come out to be, that the American government has killed more people in the Middle East than the terrorist attacks that happened her in the United States. Don't get me wrong, it is horrible that 9/11 happened and all of the other attacks, but if we are going to stoop to a level as low as them and kill their people as revenge, I think that that is inhumane.

True! The fighting won't end if we just continue it.. The sad cycle of violence is hard to escape, however, and we can only do so much to fight against it.. Good job for looking at the situation from the 'other' perspective, and being realistic about the situation instead of all for one side!
