The reason there hasn't been much discussion is because the state controls the parameters of discussion through heavy use of propaganda and intimidation, and they don't like the questions that get asked when we ask why.

The truth is they don't want to kill us at large. Not even the most militant groups have ever taken issue directly with the American people as a whole, in fact many of them quite the opposite. Their issue is with the American government and its allied state actors who are the chief executors of its foreign policy. However when one side has disproportionate strength, and the political outlets to change are closed to you, and you are systematically disenfranchised, guerrilla warfare (aka terrorism) becomes the only way to strike back at your tormentors.

The state actors do not want their foreign policy and their violence (direct and indirect) to become the subject of the discussion. So instead they spin narratives about how the enemy is pure evil, how his hatred is irrational and fanatical and cannot be reasoned with or understood, and because of that, we have no choice but to kill as many of them as possible all the time because otherwise they would leave their relatively impoverished lands thousands of miles away and come here to kill us. Does it sound ridiculous? That's because it is.

Rather than condense hours of Noam Chomsky lectures that go in great detail about this subject, I will paraphrase his conclusion: The best way to stop terrorism domestically is to stop carrying out acts of terrorism overseas. But the American government has no intention of stopping so unfortunately you will be kept in the Orwellian state of fear they are orchestrating.
