Hatred for America in the Muslem World!

from JoeUser Forums


Over the last several weeks, the level of demonstrations directed against the United States throughout the Muslim world has increased. We have seen tens of thousands demonstrate against us in Indonesian, Afghanistan, Iran, Iraq and Pakistan. In the past, we have seen schools in the Muslem world preaching anti-American sentiment.

The incident with Laura Bush on Sunday should make it crystal clear to almost anyone how fundamental the hatred is in the Muslim world toward the United States. Mrs. Bush is quoted as saying “As we all know, this is a place of very high tensions and high emotions”. Why the Bush administration thought they could improve the atmosphere in the Muslim world by sending Laura Bush into that area demonstrates their refusal to accept the fact that we are hated by millions of Muslims and they just want us to leave them alone. We are fortunate that Mrs. Bush’s visit did not result in a much more difficult incident. Her visit has capped several weeks of demonstrations that show the depth and breadth of the hatred felt by Muslims toward Americans. I know there are some who will claim that the little children come up to our military in Iraq and I am sure there are Muslems who accept Americans. That does not change the fact that millions hold pure hatred toward Americans. The administration should read the book, “Imperial Hubris” by the former CIA bin Laden section chief to get a better idea of what these people really think of Americans and WHY they hate us so much! . We have a much more dangerous problem with Muslem hatred then most Americans understand!

"This is the site that touched off four years of KILLING when Ariel Sharon visited that site."

People still believe this? It was a bad decision, no doubt. But people who think that that act cauused almost five years of violence don't understand the situation.

We won WWII and do not occupy Germany, Italy or Japan.


Now? No. But we did.

It's also worth noting that After the Six Day War, Israel offered the Palestinians (at that time Jordanians and Egyptians) their own state, in exchange for recognition and a peace treaty. They rejected it, likely fearing that they would be outcasts from the Arab world.

Well....

When it comes to the Muslim world there are 3 problems:
) The lack of freedom and oppertunity
) The Clerics control and want to keep control. the best way to do that is to control information
) American politicies toward Iraq (1980 Iran/Iraq war), Saudi Arabia (which many believe has a non-ligitimate rulers in place supported by America) and Isreal (which expanded its borders beyond the 1967 treaty and continues to do so even to this day)


Honestly, they take it 'in the ass' every day for decades and they are feed up with America doing it this way for the betterment of everybody (Iran/Iraq war bankrupted USSR, if Saudi Arabia falls, the world economy falls with it, and Isreal being a home after WWII mass murder)


A lot of this was not fair to them even if it actually is better. People, in general, do not like their lives interfered into like this and Muslims are no different. Some feel (whether right or wrong) that if America allowed Saudi Arabia to just 'be' whatever it is or not support Isreal even though it really does abuse thr 1967 borders (if its just for defence, why do people live there?).


The reality is that these things are forming a grave wedge. Wheather right or wrong, poor people tend to fight when they feel they have no hope or nothing to loose. Muslims are amonst the worlds poor.

The Iraq situation might help, but that is 10 years down the line. A long time to wait.

What of Iran? North Korea?

We are headed toward WWIII (Not the one Bill O'Rielly keeps talking about) where millions will die. Once that happens and evryone is tired of loosing loved ones, maybe then we will have peace.

How do you define a terrorist?


People flying planes into building comes to mind. Taking a school hostage would count also.
