This attitude isn't limited to Arabs. Anyone with open eyes and ears can see and sense this feeling against the USA all around the world and sadly right here in our own country as well.
Many of our citizens are envious and jealous of what others have achieved through hard work and sacrifice. If they don't have these achievements shared with them ( various welfare, subsidy, empowerment, quota programs), they would rather destroy everything (riots such as Watts etc.) than to have anyone else enjoy the fruits of their own labor. Additionally, we have highly elected officials (BLackCaucus & Democratic Socoialists of America etc.)and others of national prominence (Jackson, Farakhan, Sharpton et al) that are agitating unrest and engaging in fiscal extortion.
True enough. Yet certain Arabs have taken it upon themselves to refute our perceived "arrogance" with extreme prejudice. They will be countered with a force they have yet to know. The others resort, by and large, to words and actions that can be countered by reason (e.g. Rush) and law enforcement.
At any rate, if these Arabs do not want the West in any way, whether its prosperity or its culture, I see no reason, in the end, not to allow them their caves and depravity. But what is Osama doing with a Satallite phone and computer if he so badly hates the West?
