So lay it out for me. How is the US at fault for this terrorist attack in Lyon? Better question would be, what would possibly absolve France from responsibility? Please answer both, not just the first question. Thanks.
The French interior minister had long ago boasted about providing documents for terrorists and criminals to transit to Syria to fight in the war on behalf of NATO. They have the papers to come back.
The French also have exposure to terrorists they've recruited and trained in Libya, Algeria, and Mali as well as others.
In England, it was exposed that some of the radical clerics recruiting the fighters going to Syria were working for MI6. It is probably the same all over Western Europe and the Balkans which were the main source of Europeans in the war against Syria.
Let's try and stay focused here. The only person responsible for this bombing is the guy who placed the bomb and his co-conspirators if he had any.
It's actually very rare for terrorists to have been touched personally in their lives (or the lives of their families) by the actions of the larger powers or their citizens, that are the victims of their attacks.
One notable example would have been the Chechen Black Widows a couple of decades ago, many of whom had their husbands, fathers or brothers killed by the Russians.
Aside from that and a few other exceptions, most terrorists are mentally unstable whackjobs who latched onto a cause to give some (twisted) meaning do their mundane lives.

Many reasons. Ichi layed out some material. I'm not going to try to educate anybody on this, there's such a thing as willful ignorance and you will find truck loads of that on this subject.
If you want an answer go look into the breath of a butterfly in Africa spawning a hurricane which devastates the Carribean basin.

Amen to that.
