America is not the only target of jihadists. I don't think terrorists necessarily care who they kill, just as long as they can cause a lot of terror with a little bit of resources. If they hit Americans, so much the better.
At the risk of being too political and bustin' an Omni-cap in you -

What imperialist agenda did Afghanistan, Somalia and the Sudan have? What's their relation to Israel? Because they've been there fighting for some time now.....

I think excuses are all that's needed, myself. And their avowed things the US can do to "make it all stop" doesn't stop at leaving Saudi Arabia (done), leave Iraq (not yet) and stop supporting Israel (not ever, probably). The list of what we need to do it much, much larger.
