It's not about religion; it's about politics. Most Muslims live in countries where either the entire population is poor or where society is sharply divided between the ultra wealthy and the poor. When the United Staes, a relatively wealthy country with a very high standard of living, interferes in Middle Eastern politics, many of the policy decisions we make often appear to be aligned with the wealthier or more privileged contingencies, such as the Saudi Arabian royalty or the Israeli goverment, and opposed or at the very least unhelpful to less privileged contingencies, such as Palestinians or Kurds. To most Arab Muslims, it appears that the U.S. government is just another one of the oppressors, and that all our talk about democracy and Christianity is purely rhetoric aimed at rationalizing and covering our self-serving and hypocritical interests.\n\nBut most Muslims do not hate Americans although they do resent or mistrust the U.S. government. It just appears that they all hate us because our news coverage of course covers events which portray hatred and hostility rather than peace or cooperation. It's just the nature of the news.

Interesting question:\n\nI will add this to your question:\n\nWestern media is considered bias and untrusted by most Muslims.\nEven when it shows Western mistakes and wrongdoings...\nThen Muslims who always say that Muslim media are lies...\nUses the Mistakes and Wrongdoings that come from suddenly "tursted" media to say how bad the West and non Muslim world is....\n\nI never see here posted:\n\nMuslims who comment about Darfour\nMuslims who defend human rights\nMuslims who address issues of mistreatment of women and honor killings\nMuslims who recognized that Non-Muslim do not have the same and fair treatment in muslim countries...\n\nWhy ??? Exactly because of their sources of informations for one...\n\nI deal with refugees... And I can tell you that recently there is now refugees of Christiand denomination Palestinians who talk about unfair treatment not of Israelies but of Muslims Palestinian Radicals...\n\nI deal with Muslim women who have been either survived death or are threatened to be killed because they dishonor their families...\n\nThese subjects of HUMAN RIGHTS are NEVER addressed by Muslims in general... I personally know of Muslim who deal with these issues and have death threat because of it... And these are not isolated cases...\n\nNo comment from Muslims about DArfour\nNo comment of Muslims about Northen Nigeria\nNo comment of Muslims about Armenian Genocide\n\nNot only no comments, but we hear in their and Western Media that there are now conferences to prove that the Holocaust did not exist... No demonstration nor solid critics by muslim media to counter these lies, no Muslims on Yahoo will inquire about this new layer of blatant constant denial of the Reality...\n\nSouth America had just as much Pressure from US interest as Arabo muslim countries... they have taken tehir destiny in their own hands and changed from dictatorships to democracies... Why ? Because they are not in denial !\n\nYou regularly see massive demonstration for HUMAN RIGHTS and JUSTICE in South America... Universal, not just for a certain group...

Quite an easy answer really.\n\nIt's because Islam butt's their noses in everyone elses business first.\n\nIf they kept themselves to themselves and didn't do stupid things like blow up buses and hijack airplanes, then we'd be very happy to leave you all alone to yourselves.

They are taught to hate from a very early age.\nEverything western is decadent\nEverything except islam is to be destroyed \nAnd anyone who isnt sympathetic to their cause is their enemy.

this is just bullshit,no religion teaches terrorism,it's the ppl who modify everything according to them,and only if these things are happening it's because blokes like u,who have all the hatred in ur heart for muslims n  think  they are out there to throw a bomb on every single person,it is attitude such as urs that makes them think enough is enough,,don't forget contributions of many indians like irfan pathan n APJ Kalam,they don't think they're muslims,just true INDIANS first,nways US military terrorises innocent ppl openly in countries such as Iraq so this is what gives rise to ppl such as Osama.                And KORAN in no ways teaches terrorism others are just bluffing for a God damned reason

I think it's because people like to be ignorant. Being ignorant feels like a free pass to hate and spread lies whenever they want. Even if people don't realize how ignorant they are, they feel entitled to hate because they honestly believe that the US is some sort of super state, where everyone is free and happy.\n\nOne of my least favorite complaints about Islam is that "Women in the Middle East (especially Saudi Arabia) are second class citizens." The assumption here is that women in the West (and especially the US) are liberated and considered full citizens. I have so many things to say in response to questions like those, but they are never received correctly because of stubbornness and ignorance. (First of all, women in Saudi Arabia think women in the US are considered 2nd class citizens. Secondly, the separation of the genders actually creates jobs for women because they are not allowed to interact with men. Even the argument that women are not allowed to drive in Saudi Arabia "so they are oppressed" is debunked, because laws like that are not regulated in rural areas, where farm women drive tractors, etc., and women in urban areas don't need to drive!)\n\nThe fact is, most Westerners (and non-Muslims, in general) are exposed only to extremist Islam, like the Taliban & Al-Qaeda. Most of them have neve read the Qur'an, and some of them continue to spread hate messaged about Islam simply because they do not know the context in which the Qur'an was written, or the reformist struggles going on with Islam. Many people think of Islam as monolithic and unchanging. \n\nThere's also another group of people who spread hate about Islam, and those are the self-righteous Atheists who believe all organized religion is a bunch of voodoo whoodoo. NOT ALL ATHEISTS believe this!! (again, NOT ALL ATHEISTS BELIEVE THIS OR BEHAVE IN SUCH A WAY), but many of them spread hate messages and are demaning to anyone who is religious, not just Muslims...\n\nAnyway, I know many, many Christians, Atheists, Jews, etc. who are not hateful whatsoever towards Islam. They are our allies and we will need them to speak up about their beliefs some day soon in the future. Right now, the anti-Islam people are too loud.\n\nPeace be upon you.

It is simply because they have a different culture and social background. For example, they might find the relations between a man and a woman outside marrige is unacceptable while in the Western Culture it is. So it's not a matter of hatred but a matter of being different. The best thing to do is to respect each other culture and accept diversity.\n\nIf Islam anti-western then no one in the Islamic world will welcome some of the western civics or mordernisation.

It's not just Muslims they react to this way, it's any religion that is not like theirs. Christians beleive their religion is the only one that counts, the only true way, and they respond with hatred and violence towards what they don't understand, because what they don't understand scares them...think of them like a scared animal that has been cornered. Oh, and when so called Christians are responding to what they don't understand with hatred and violence, what kind of message do they think they are sending out to others? What kind of religion condones hatred and violence? And where does it say in the Bible that it is ok to hurt other people just because their beleifs are different than your own? This is especially true of them in the south, the bible belt, where they have no tolerance of other religions that is not the same as their own! If you think they hate muslims, you should see how they react to Wiccans!!!!\nAnd for FORETRNITY: Don't you remember when Christians spread their religion at the point of a sword and tried to stamp out all other religions? And if you have any doubts about the way Christians judge and condemn others, just bring it up and ask them what they think about other religions...ANY other religion, and you will get more than you bargained for...they'll give you a sermon on why theirs is the only true way, and why they beleive everyone who is not Christian is going to HELL.

I am sure it is in their religious book, The Koran (sometimes spelled the Q'uran).  You can probably check out a copy at your library and skim through it to see what they believe.  Muslims also hate Christians and Jews.  They consider Jews the lowest and have refered to them as apes and pigs.

Not all of us hate the Saudi people. There's a "backlash" effect from the 9/11 tragedy. It's sadly, the result of ignorance about the Islamic faith. Most don't realize that terrorists are to muslims as the KKK is to christianity.

As in all religions there are some that believe certain things and others that see it a different way. Islam is not a hate oriented religion at all, they just have some hateful offspring.  Same goes with all the other religions.

I cant agree more with you.You are so right,i dont think any muslim or jew can hate each other forget about killing,i've studied almost all the religion quite vividly and have understood that none encourages killing of innocent people or any people unless you have to defend your family or religion(say mosques,synagogues,temples etc holy places)To me hate is contigeous,no matter who you are if you have hate for something particular you'll see that at the end you'll be hating almost everything that you have around you and maybe you'll start hating yourself too.Hate is a big word..one might not like something with all his heart but he/she shouldnt hate it.Patience i believe is the best way to deal with stuff like this.Just because i've a jewish name or a muslim name doesnt make me a jew or a muslim....he/she is a jew or a muslim is someone who obeys everything in the religion or atleast tries to and completely avoid wut is forgiven.None of the religions in the world say that hate other religion,it's the lack of knowledge about their religion that they have grown into such beasts that they use their name of their religion to get benefit out of it.I'm a Muslim and i dont hate any jews or any christians or any human being.I practise Islam as a way of my life,not just as a religion and Alhamdulillah i try to enforce Islam in my life in every way i can.I dont feel any hatred towards anyone?why is that,is it because i am not a good muslim?I dont think so....i know a lot of people who r like me and thinks like me too.To me most of these killings r for political reasons and trying to gain benefits for some very few powerful individuals who influences these poor jews and muslims all around the world to pursue something they want to achieve in any way they can.Wa'salaam.May Allah bless you all.And Allah(God) knows best.

I hate that this has been my experience, but I can only tell you what I have experienced.  I don't know many Muslims in my everyday life, but the ones I know are good people, and I can't even imagine that they would hate Jewish people, or hate anyone.  But, like I say, I don't know many Muslims.  I am interested in religion, and I sometimes go to various religious chatrooms.  Almost ANY time I have ever gone to a Muslim chatroom, I have found people expressing intense hatred of Jewish people.  Of course, chatrooms do not tend to bring out the best people, for whatever reason.  So I'm hoping that this is just some sort of abnormal thing.\n\nBut quite honestly, I HAVE seen a lot of Islamic websites that have insults about Jewish people.  As you point out, these are not following the way of Islam.  Ok, and one last little tidbit is that there was a locally well-known doctor's office in my area where there was a Muslim doctor and a Jewish doctor who worked together.  They absolutely hated each other and this was plain to see.  I'm sure it was over some differences in medicine or something, but people just make assumptions.

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.

I've been living in Egypt, which is an Islamic country, for 19 years now. Muslims are very friendly just like any other people on earth. I never heard that Qur'an instigates them to occupy oether peoples' lands. If you look around you will find that it is the other way around: Muslims are occupied in all cases by nonmuslims and are trying to get their lands freed

mmmm I guess because everyone that isn't an arab or muslim is an enemy to them?? Kind of narrows the available resources don't you think?
