If USA was good with muslims issues, would they hate Americans?

Muslims don't hate Americans.  They hate the American government.  Given what's been happening in Iraq, I'm not sure I can blame them.

In my opinion it is not the Americans who blame Muslims its the US administration who does it for some political and strategical reasons. To make this point clear, before 9-11 the US couldn't enter the Mid East and does what ever it wants claiming that they are chasing terrorists. Fighting terrorism might be truth, but terrorism is not fought by killing every body there. So many people were killed during the American air strikes on Iraq. Some of them might be criminals but the majority was not. Children and woman were killed brutally. I will not go through all of this but one thing that I can say is that the US is not fighting terror, they are aiming for something other than terror and I'll leave it for you to figure out.\n\nWe should not generalize if we see some thing bad. Most of the American people are good, friendly and always seeking the truth and right thing. I am saying that even if I am a Muslim!\nYou shouldn't say that all Muslims are bad and terrorists. If any body is mature enough he knows that people differ between good and bad even if they are in the same religion.\n\nEven if all Muslims are bad you shouldn't judge their religion until you read it and understand it. You don't have to convert, only do it for your own knowledge.

the u.s. doesn't hate the islamic world.  that generalization is like saying that all the islamic world hates the united states  we have idiots who hate on both sides and who make the rest of us look like we are all evil.  if you truly believe in god than you know that hate and killing in His name is wrong on both sides.  don't believe that we all agree w/ the bush propaganda of hate against islam.  if there is anything left of the world in 3 years you will see that we will vote in a prez who has compassion for all people and isn't against our islamic friends.

While there are American people that heat or hate all Muslims, most don't.  Making that generalization is the same as saying that all Muslims are terrorists.  It implies racism at worst and ignorance at the least.

For me, living in the US as a muslim, I think it's pretty easy. In all my 15 years of living here, I honestly haven't met one person who discriminates, hates, or just doesn't like me because I am muslim. It's just the media and a couple of uninformed people that try to scare you about us muslims. Yes, there are some bad people out there that do bad things and call themselves muslims, but every religion has it's goods and bads. Take christianity for example, priests molesting children, Jews bombing Palestinians, Muslims flying planes into buildings, theres just good and bad in EVERY religion. Oh boy, I've gone off topic again, haven't I?

I don't think americans hate muslims. Muslim has been anew word in this culture moreso because of 9/11. Extremist came into veiw with muslim at that time. I don't practice religion. Most people are of Christian decent in the US. Muslims are good people that practice a religion that teaches them values to live by. Just as Christians do. Maybe Christians aren't involved in a large bombing, but they have done alot of things that probably add up to as much death and destruction as any Islamic group. There are many people that claim to be modern-day-muslim Them I know are nice people. Remember these; James Jones Waco,Tx Jim Baker & Adolf Hitler

I think you may find that recent usa activity in the middle east is at least questionable in some countries.\nAnd this Iran thing now... \nYou could only hear muslims (don't get me wrong here) before, talking bad about america, now it's a global discussion...\nNo conclusion. Just thinking...\n\nI don't dislike americans. Have to go there and see what is this "new world" deal all about. lol.\nWhat's the best way to contact you? email me.

HATE is a very strong word, but along such negative sentiments, perhaps it's because the U.S. has a very aggressive foreign policy that involves itself in the affairs of other nations, often times for its own interests above those of those countries. According to the President's last State of the Union address, this progressive and competitive edge is what affords Americans a certain lifestyle which, often times, is unavailable in those "hateful" countries. The U.S. comes across as "arrogance" at times and in many cases, just "ignorant' of other countries.\n\nOf course, there are religious assumptions as well. And what exactly you mean by "Americans"... in general?

As with all things, some Americans support it totally, some oppose it totally, a bunch are somewhere in between, and some have no knowledge or opinion about it.\n\nThere are obvious logical problems with an "innocent-until-proven-guitly" nation running a Guantanamo.  The article probably does not pick the best example to illustrate the problem, though, since the particular prisoner did sound like a nut.\n\nYour narrow definition of "defense" probably does not make a lot of sense in today's world; it sounds like form over substance.\n\nI don't think you should feel pity for American civilians.  Like people in most countries (but maybe more so), most do not spend a large amount of their lives and time studying and thinking about politics.    \n\nIronically, so many people still see the USA as a "dream country" that there is a big immigration and border control controversy lately.\n\nI don't think Muslims are a "different breed" of people.  Most Muslims are probably a lot like most Christians and Jews.  Extremist Muslims are probably somewhat like extremist Christians and extremist Jews.  The groups could trade places, and I think little would change.  All the groups are just people who get angry about things, and a segment within each group expresses anger in violence.

I don't think that all Egyptians hate Americans but we are rather unpopular in many places. Most of it has to do with the fact that America is a super power and there are a lot of misconceptions about us, just as there many misconceptions about Muslims and Middle Easterners in general. Ignorance is persons worst enemy because it breeds misunderstanding and misunderstanding breeds fear. If we would all take the time to learn about each other's cultures then it would go a long way in the world peace process. Try to familiarize yourself with people and issues before you make a judgment. You'll be a much more intelligent and wise person if you do.

Al Qaeda and Osama Bin Laden hated Israel and its supporters because they are anti-Islam which is their religion.  Thus, America as the number one supporter of US is always a target of terrorism.

As an American I speak only for myself but, IMO our country has done a VERY BAD job of dealing with situations involving extremist recently "last 5 years", "terrorist is a stupid word so I will lean away from it". Different sets of extremist hate us on many different levels for many different reasons. They hate us for any / one or all of the following.\n\n(1) Democracy & Freedom\nSome people live in societies where for hundreds of years oppression, stereotyping, and women being of a lower class are normal. This has been the way for so long "thousands of years" that "they" think it is the right and final way. We as americans seek to stop this way of thinking and open things up. Although mostly in America this is done for open market trade, moreoverly money; under the guise of freedom, "HAHA to think we are free, we as americans no more have freedom than the chinese have free speach." Democracy is a joke we are not a democracy we are a capatialistic totalitarian dictatorship in the dress of a democracy. But our leaders have managed to make it look pretty good. This openness of religion, speech, etc makes some secular groups very angry. We have also in years past mistreated many others from some groups over and over again. As we continue to do at abu graib or guantanamo or any of the secret cia camps "watch road to guantanamo", this info is shielded from us americans but not from others and this is also fuel to the extremist fire.\n\n(2) Capitalism (encouraging personal hardwork, productivity & reward)\nI am a lazy american bastard cant speak for us all but most I know are also. lol no offense \n\n(3) Free market economy\nWe use our free markey economy as a political tool, being the power that america is we can break a country if we cut off trade and make markets flounder just by raising an import tax etc. We are soon to use this against iran by threatening countrys that still trade with them; saying that we will cut them off, since we personally do not trade with iran.\n\n(4) Technology\nDont really think pong makes anyone too pissed lol. But our massive monetary wealth puts a larger portion of americans above the poverty line and makes americans looks like unconcerned yuppies, who do whatever the good BUSH tells us.\n\n(5) Aesthetic value\nProbably hate us for this along with the rest\n\n(6) Order & Accountability\nWe cover everything we do up and try to not even admit it when caught. We are the king of pawning off problems on others. Shoot we invented it.\n\n(7) Love for Mankind (America meaning "lovely"\nWhere you been bubba Bush is trying to milk oil from our nature preserves right now. We have hospitals in new york that throw old people in alleys so they can die with the homeless cause they cant pay.  America seems to hate mankind IMO.\n\n(8) Support for Israel\nYes they hate us for this but you would have to hate many others than just us if it was for this alone.\n\n(9) Superiority of war arsenal\nIt pisses everyone off thats why we have it and why its so superior lol\n\n(10) Others\nThink of something about america something stereotypical   chances are that it is in at least some way true. Those things you just thought of those are more reasons they hate us.

It amazes me it really does that the USA. \nAs you say in your question, It is hated by the whole world. \nB'Shit. \nNow explain to me why so many people want to go and live in the United States if they are hated by so many. \nWhat your question is really stating is that the ones who hate the USA. \nAre the ones that fear the USA, for their not sitting back and taking it no more. \nlook no further than to the countries who have the most to lose by the USA going on the Offensive. IRAN, SYRIA, They are the ones who hate the USA.\nNo more Terror attacks on US soil. \nSince the USA, Has Got active and started taking the fight to the Terrorists rather than let them come to the USA. Europe are the biggest load of backstabbing countries, Their people are so shit scared to do anything about Terrorism, because of so many of their Inhabitants are mostly from the countries that the Terrorists belong. \nI personally hope when all this is sorted out. And in the future when some hitherto unknown dictator, pops up threatening to do all sorts of Mischief. \nThe USA will just sit back and let the other shit hole countries deal with it. \nThis is my opinion and i am from the UK. \nFcuk the rest, America is best.
