We responded with a "War on Terror". A flawed war to fight in the first place that isn't winnable. We've sacrificed our freedoms for more protection. And that's exactly why they're winning.

Face it guys, ever since 9/11 things haven't been the same.

In exchange for "protection", we've said goodbye to some of our very own freedoms.

Racial profiling, the Patriot Act -- just two prime examples.

This is what they wanted -- Osama knew he couldn't break this country down in terms of population as a whole and even challenge our military. But ever since 9/11, we've had to trade in some of our own freedoms that they've hated and despised more then anything.

And here we are now.

The war is still going on with not much progress being made.

People are dying.

We still haven't captured Osama.

Racial profiling hasn't gone away.

They're winning.
While I agree with your basic premiss, they don't hate us because of our freedom, they hate us because of our foreign policy. Until that changes it doesn't matter how many terrorists we kill, two more will fight to take each of their places.
