Who are the real terrorists?

Are they the middle eastern Muslims or are they the government officials that try to scare us with false reports of potential terror attacks, just so they can make a profit from their investments in the military industrial complex?

Update:

If you don't know who is in the military industrial complex, here is a list of companies: http://www.militaryindustrialcomplex.com/companies...

    terrorists: a system of government by terror; intimidation to impress with terror to domineer over by means of terror. terror is fear that dominates the mind and body; dread alarm ; cause of fear

    Any country or people that use the above methods to get what they want would be considered Terrorists. Didn't seem to work here in the states though, Did it?

    We have been attacked numerous times and it seems to have the opposite effect on Americans as other countries,

    ie: the original tea party, The Alamo, Pearl Harbor, 9/11 I am sure there are many more!

    As in the last line of the anthem " In the land of the free and the Home of the brave"

    Any person who attacks any culture, for the sake of striking fear in its people, is a terrorist. Our government officials have not attacked us physically and cannot be compared to the radical muslims (not all middle eastern muslims are radical) who caused the events on September 11th in an attempt to scare the nation into lives of fear.

    I liked Rude Blogger's answer! But I am with you it is a travesty that we the American people have allowed our government to do this. Corporations seem to be ruling the US.
