No - We are hated because we are infidels and are not muslims. This seems to be what the West is finally, hopefully becoming aware of. Good points.

"No - We are hated because we are infidels and are not muslims."
I would add that we, Americans, are especially hated because we are the only thing that prevents the Muslim world from destroying Israel. These whackjobs would even take Israeli nukes if they thought they would win in the end.
It's really that simple. We could give up oil, convert to Islam, and totally withdraw our influence around the world where it interferes with Muslim countries -- but if we still defended Israel they would hate us with all their being.
