protip: 9/11 was a reaction to US intervention in the middle east. so was the orlando shooting. so was etc etc etc...
actually, a good amount of terror attacks are... so why don't we just stop intervening in the middle east?
This 100%
During the vietnam war, sometimes we would attack civilian villages just because we suspect them of helping the viet cong. That kind of suspicion, which was entirely baseless and false, leads to civilian lives to be lost, and the survivors, who are now homeless and struggling to live, would turn towards more radical means in order to stay alive.
If you attack people who don't deserve it, you lose their trust and their resources. Not only that, but you help the enemies, as they now have a fresh new wave of recruits coming in- the exact civilians you tried to bomb.
