Well maybe it has something to do with thats the one place in the world we routinely drop bombs on in the name of terrorism.

It's quite the chicken and egg scenario, we drop bombs on them because "terrorism", anger provokes further extremism which we use to justify dropping more bombs. and round we go.

If you're the average civilian in the middle east walking along a street when all of a sudden the house beside you blows up because there's a Isis target in there, would it feel all that different from terrorism to your family?

IMO these relentless drone strikes and bombing campaigns are not helping the way you think they would.
