We will not stop either

As Americans, we do tend to see the world in a matter that protects our personal security. I understand that some muslims may feel oppressed, but what I do not understand is how we are at fault. Why are we looked down upon by muslims because of how our culture has evolved? Why do muslims feel as though we have done so much evil abroad?

And honestly this is not directed at all muslims but how is violence going to force us to comply and listen to your demands, The U.S. will not bow out at the face of violence and killing innocent people we will just continue to fight, I guess because of your religion you believe that you will win, but beyond our military forces there are more concerned Americans who will not let terror win and we never accept defeat, so why not stop the violence and accept peace because if you do not stop, we will not stop, and that's not good.
