Why do terrorists do what they do? Why do they hate the United States so much? What makes them justify killing innocent civilians? I'm not bashing anyone, but i just want to know the mindset of these people.

They believe they are doing the right thing and that it will take them to heaven. Something like that.

Don't make fun of me From Terrorist point of view: Why are Americans so damn stupid, ignorant, unwilling, and greedy?

Someone effectively persuaded them that committing suicide will give you 72 virgins in heaven.

You should've watched Harold and Kumar: Escape from Guantanamo Bay. They have a brief scene when they explain why they are terrorists, or "heros".

Everyone have their different definition of the perfect world. The US want terrorist to die, the terrorist want the US to die.
