Well, the great boogie man Bin laden has said so himself, and because all of these groups follow his example, I'd say he is probably right.

These people, whom we call fundamentalists, simply and openly want to force Islam on the rest of the world. This has nothing to do with Israel.

These fundamentalists were no more than a mob of idiots with only very limited appeal even in their own countries until they were given a cause to hate certain Western countries.
How many Al Qaeda based attacks have there been in Brazil, Switzerland or Poland, or many of the other non Muslim countries. These are all Christian countries, yet they do not attract the Muslim terrorists that the USA does So it's not merely a religious thing, and why is the USA such a target? I think I can safely say that is because of their support of Israel, or more to the point lack of support for the Palestinians who are actually the wronged party here.
Similarly I think that most of the worlds military analysts would agree. It's not rocket science to look at the how terrorism is being used and against whom, to see this.
