Aren't Americans more at risk of terrorist attack because we are a superpower?
People say that our bloated military makes them feel secure. Not me. If we had a more peaceful and less imperialistic foreign policy - like say Brazil - we would save money, be less threatened with terrorism, and be just as safe in our borders. Americans are more at risk because of our religious beliefs? What religion is that?

No, though to some extent I'm sure it has to do with the way we use our "bloated military".

We're at risk because of our continued support of Israel. Cut them off completely and our terrorism problem would be gone.
