I thought that this was a pretty good read:
Why Westerners Are Never Told Why They're Attacked
Islamic terrorism is the bitter fruit of a century of failed Western intervention in the Middle East

Why Westerners Are Never Told Why They're Attacked - The Duran
So why won’t Western officials and corporate media take the jihadists’ statements of intent at face value? Why won’t they really tell their citizens why they are attacked?
It seems to be an effort to cover up a long and ever more intense history of Western military and political intervention in the Middle East and the violent reactions it provokes, reactions that put innocent Western lives at risk. Indirect Western culpability in these terrorist acts is routinely suppressed, let alone evidence of direct Western involvement with terrorism.
