Why do they hate us? That's a question many Americans have been asking about radical Muslims ever since al-Qaeda terrorists hijacked four jetliners and attacked our nation nine years ago.

Lawrence Wright, a staff writer for The New Yorker, often asked that same question while researching his book, The Looming Tower: al-Qaeda and the Road to 9/11. The book alone, which won a Pulitzer Prize is informative enough and goes a long way toward providing some answers (we'll never have them all). But Wright took things a step further by turning his material into a critically-acclaimed one-man play, My Trip to al-Qaeda. And now his material shows up in yet another form of media—a movie by the same title which features snippets from Wright's stage play, interviews, documentary footage, photographs, and more.

  • in the usa most is runned by Jews some ppl arent all bad but yes I do see ur concerns in this The reason most politician support Israel is b/c of GREED POWER HERE IN STATES wrongly I know & I also feel this Pres Obama is some what different wont go to war b/c of them in fact some how he is trying to keep some type of peace we shouldnt be in war with middle east or try to change things there

  • @TheCoco524724, It is very apparant that the Jews in US have done all they can for Israel even though it was the worst thing they can do & US has paid dearly for this support. It is not just Jews that are greedy if the rest of the politicians & western nations that are greedy for power & wealth they would not be manipulated to do the same.

    Obama has enough of war that is bankrupting US, first time in US history that wars are bankrupting it.

  • My heart is with u believe me I think u misunderstood me my thoughts I know what has happened I disagree with it I agree with u on many topics but I also understand why things happened here on 9/11 my country caused it

  • @TheCoco524724, Sorry if I have misunderstood you, I try not to do that. Well you have to understand that US wanted to help Israel & they would not stop forcing US to get involved, it is a habit they have gotten into & not realize the consequence decades ago & now they are like spoiled children always getting the big brother in trouble to bail them out of trouble. If you ask me Israel is the one that setup 9/11

  • mine is from an arab also & the quran & i'm christian

  • @TheCoco, Then as a Christian you should know how people in the Middle East & North Africa were forced to convert out of Christianity & how they have lived as third class citizens next to Muslims & why so little remains & they are all running from Muslim cruelty.
