How many terrorist attacks have there been in the US since we invaded iraq? ...ha, just kidding.
I would say that hardly any of the "fighters" are worried about colonialism. Some are religious extremists (foreign and otherwise), some are Sunnis that want their power back, and some are paid merceneries.
And yes, politicians are liars. Thats how the system works.
