Ex-CIA Agent: America creates its own enemies

Americans are in the crosshairs of terrorists worldwide purely due to Washington's policy in the Muslim world, not because there is an Islamic enemy whose only aim is to kill Americans for their freedoms and lifestyle, insists a former CIA officer. Historian Michael Scheuer, an author of "Through our enemies' eyes", who worked for the agency for over 20 years till 2004 and at one time was the chief of the CIA's 'Bin Laden unit', says America's greatest enemy -- radical Islam -- never existed: neither when Bin Laden was alive, nor now.

I am a Bosnian Serb. If you ever meet online someone from Croatia, Muslim part of Bosnia, from Serbia, Montenegro and Macedonia, ask him if it was better 70's and 80's or is better today. 99.99% of people claim that it is not at all comparable, and that it was golden age compared to today's misery. They (and I) have lived under communism in you in U.S. heard things about communism on TV ( propaganda). Either they have no idea (they lived under communism) or maybe TV is not telling the truth?
