Depending on where they come out on that question , their solutions inevitably encompass more destruction of American liberty and privacy , such as with gun control , immigration controls , or surveillance schemes . There is one big problem with their analysis , however : The terrorism problem America has been facing even before 9/11 is nβt due to Islam , Muslims , or the Koran . Instead , the anti - American terrorism problem is rooted in U.S. interventionism in the Middle East and Afghanistan , specifically the ongoing death and destruction that the U.S. military death machine has been wreaking in those parts of the world on an ongoing basis for the past 25 years .", "event": []}
