description: "Islam versus Terrorism" provides an intimate view of understanding the culture of the Middle East and Islam, a faith that dictates the lives of 1.6 billion followers. It highlights the importance of cultural differences in making foreign policies. It also gives perspective on why our foreign relations have gone wrong while describing the Middle East and its problems. The tragic, well-planned terrorist attack on America on 9/11/2001 proved that we are not untouchable and cannot ignore the unhappy world across the ocean. The heinous act contained a message to be wary of interfering in other countries' affairs if we wish not to be a party to their problem. Dictating to other nations, especially Islamic, who have been vocal in expressing their opposition to us, could result in more serious consequences. Playing a meaningful role in the world requires that America reevaluate its foreign policy in an effort to be a valuable friend rather than a "big bully." Islam does not promote terror, desperation does.
