Why does USA see Hezbollah as Terrorists and not as the defenders of Lebanon which they are?
Answer 1
Because the policy of USA is hijacked by Zionists and Zionists hate Shia Islam too much and so being terrorist is only an excuse to destroy Shia Islam in the world. Hezbollah is not seeking power in Lebanon and is a good group and not aggressive but defensive.
Answer 2
The question as written makes a major assumption about the nature of Hezbollah, namely that it is a defender of the Lebanese people. While this is certainly a message that Hezbollah espouses, it is quite incorrect.
Hezbollah is a belligerent militant organization whose primary goal is to create a Shiite Theocracy in Lebanon. There are vast numbers of Lebanese who would be directly harmed or threatened should such an eventuality occur, namely Maronite Christians, Sunni Muslims, and other minorities, who would lose rights or station. Secondly, and more importantly, Hezbollah does not actually secure any benefits for the Lebanese people in terms of protecting them from foreign enemies. Hezbollah killed numerous Lebanese people in the Lebanese Civil War while fighting alongside the Syrian Army. They also fired the first shots in the 2006 Israel-Hezbollah War by kidnapping two Israeli soldiers. During that war, Hezbollah further increased civilian casualties by drawing Israeli soldiers into small villages, resulting in a high level of urban warfare and a high level of civilian casualties. Blame for this direction of the war also lies squarely at Hezbollah's feet. Finally, Hezbollah opposes the will of the Lebanese people. In 2009, when Hezbollah did not form part of the Lebanese Government (instead being part of the Opposition), they brought tanks into Central Beirut and demanded concessions. This violates the principles of democracy that the Lebanese people have agreed to follow and is directly opposed to their wishes.
Hezbollah endangers civilians, has a violent ideology, and discusses the murder of foreign civilians almost daily. That in combination with its thousands of soldiers and its use of violence to terrorize its enemies, has resulted in the USA and many European countries' quite reasonable naming of Hezbollah as a terrorist militant organization.

Was the September 11Th act a domestic or international terrorism?
It was an international act, perpetrated by Osama Bin Laden and Al Qaeda, and carried out by terrorists who came mainly from Saudi Arabia (fifteeen of them), plus several from Egypt and the United Arab Emerates. Contrary to some internet myths, there is no credible evidence that "9/11 was an inside job" even though certain conspiracy theorists continue to believe that.
Answer 1
Islam is not a violent religion. Refer to related questions below.
- Islam is not a violent religion. Some think that because a faction of extremist terrorists act in the name of Islam that this religion is a violent one. In fact, it is actually a peaceful religion. Small numbers of violent extremists make the religion look bad. Terrorists don't have the right idea of Islam.
- No, Islam is not a violent religion as a whole. The Qur'an teaches that all human life is sacred and although you should try to bring peoplethe message of Islam, you should do it in a non-violent way. Islam is derived from the Arabic root "salema": peace, purity, submission and obedience.
- Islam may not be a violent religion per se; however it is breeding terrorist extremism through the teachings of some of its respected clerics. The frequent claims that it is "just a few" or that "these people do not represent true followers of Islam" does not lift responsibility from the religion. Islam has bred this serious and deadly misconception by one means or another and must take a strong role in ending terrorism in its teachings. It will happen in the end, but could happen a whole lot sooner with direct intervention from the Islamic community worldwide.[Hint on this paragraph: There are terrorists of other religion followers and even more than Islam followers. however, no one says that their relevant religions are responsible of their actions. Recall the massacres that happened to Muslims by Christians in Spain and Jerusalem in early history. Recall the massacres that happened to Muslims by Christians in Bosnia. Recall the Massacres that happened to Muslims in Chechen by Russians and in Gaza (Palestine territories) by Israelis and in other parts of the world. It is the media and politicians that exaggerating these issues against Islam to get control of Islamic countries and to execute their political Agendas. Is there any Muslim army in any non Muslim Country? compare with how many non Muslim armies in Islamic countries and judge honestly what they doing].

Of all things a person can find in this world Religion is the worst......
Answer 3
Islam is violent because it has verses calling for violence in the Qur'an. The peaceful verses are abrogated by the more violent verses in the Qur'an. Therefore if you are told that Islam is a peaceful religion it is false!. If you read the Qur'an, Hadiths, and Sunnah you will see that Mohammad called for all the Jews to be exterminated and non believers to be killed if they did not accept Islam. Apostasy is a deadly sin in Islam and carries that death penalty by stoning IAW hadiths. Read and you will understand. Some Qur'anic verses have been provided below for more context:
"And kill them wherever you overtake them and expel them from wherever they have expelled you, and fitnah is worse than killing. And do not fight them at al-Masjid al- Haram until they fight you there. But if they fight you, then kill them. Such is the recompense of the disbelievers." -- 2:191
"O you who have believed, fight those adjacent to you of the disbelievers and let them find in you harshness. And know that Allah is with the righteous." -- 9:123
"And when the sacred months have passed, then kill the polytheists wherever you find them and capture them and besiege them and sit in wait for them at every place of ambush. But if they should repent, establish prayer, and give zakah, let them [go] on their way. Indeed, Allah is Forgiving and Merciful." -- 9:5
"Any religion other than Islam is not acceptable." Koran 3:85
"The Jews and the Christians are perverts; fight them."... Koran 9:30
"Maim and crucify the infidels if they criticize Islam" Koran 5:33
"Punish the unbelievers with garments of fire, hooked iron rods, boiling water; melt their skin and bellies." Koran 22:19
"The unbelievers are stupid; urge the Muslims to fight them." Koran 8:65
"Muslims must not take the infidels as friends." Koran 3:28
"Terrorize and behead those who believe in scriptures other than the Qur'an." Koran 8:12
"Muslims must muster all weapons to terrorize the infidels." Koran 8:60
9:112 "The Believers fight in Allah's cause; they slay and are slain, kill and are killed."
8:39 "So fight them until there is no more Fitnah (disbelief [non-Muslims]) and all submit to the religion of Allah alone (in the whole world)."
8:65 "O Prophet, urge the faithful to fight. If there are twenty among you with determination they will vanquish two hundred; if there are a hundred then they will slaughter a thousand unbelievers, for the infidels are a people devoid of understanding."
9:38 "Believers, what is the matter with you, that when you are asked to go forth and fight in Allah's Cause you cling to the earth? Do you prefer the life of this world to the Hereafter? Unless you go forth, He will afflict and punish you with a painful doom, and put others in your place."
47:4 "When you clash with the unbelieving Infidels in battle (fighting Jihad in Allah's Cause), smite their necks until you overpower them, killing and wounding many of them. At length, when you have thoroughly subdued them, bind them firmly, making (them) captives. Thereafter, either generosity or ransom (them based upon what benefits Islam) until the war lays down its burdens. Thus are you commanded by Allah to continue carrying out Jihad against the unbelieving infidels until they submit to Islam."
Answer 4
All closed religions have violent histories on the part of some followers (closed religions are those who lay proprietary claim to one God; open religions recognize and accept other religious beliefs as valid, so are perhaps less prone to proselytize by the sword. Hence, for example, Islam and Christianity are closed; Buddhism is open). Christians have had millenia of experience killing non-Christians, and even their own in the name of the Holy Trinity. No one religion has a monopoly on violence. Conversely, all such religions have followers who do not espouse violence, so the question is not phrased well. It's important to understand that neither side constitutes a complete definition of the religion. Are there violent elements in the followers of Islam? Yes. Are there peace-loving Muslims? Yes. The same is true of of Christianity and Christians. The fact of being "closed" is in itself an invitation to argument ("My god is bigger than your god, and no, they are not the same"), and the argument tends to be engaged by the most intense adherents, so violence from some quarter is an inevitable consequence of the marriage between that kind of religious dogma and our baser human nature.
Answer 5
No. Peace Love Islamic. In fact Islam is really a peaceful religion but those who accuse it of violence are either liars or ignorant of its beautiful truth.
