PRINCETON, New Jersey (CNN) --Residents of nine Muslim countries called the United States "ruthless and arrogant" in a new poll, with most describing themselves as "resentful" of the superpower.

The Gallup poll found that by a 2-to-1 margin, residents in these nations express an unfavorable opinion of the United States, and a majority also indicated their displeasure with President Bush.

Who cares what they think. I want to see a poll conducted in the US about how we feel about the Muslim countries. Their feelings don't interest me. What do they have to contribute for my consideration? Murder, mayhem? I already know that.

On Bush, 58 percent of those surveyed had unfavorable opinions, compared with 11 percent who had favorable views

Sounds like the American Democrat Party.

Golly, do you think Gallup will ever do a survey and ask Americans, "Do you believe Islam is a garbage religion?" Or "Do you believe that a Muslim can be trusted? In a 100 years? In a thousand years?" How about, "If the Muslims continue to assault Israel, do you think the Israels's first nuclear target should be Mecca or Medina?" Who cares what the rag heads think. Round up the Muslims who are in the US illegally and deport them.

If you'd like to read how ruthless they are, you'd be interested in The Islamic Ruling on the Permissibility of Executing Prisoners of War.

It's quite revealing of Islamist thought.

Sure..you neve hear of Islam criticising Europe ,Canada or Great Britian,why..because they are socialist entities and all have one thing in common.
Christianity is just a little social club network,,a powerless structure...timid and afraid.
Judaism would fall in the same category too in all the above named nations.
Result..Islam is overtaking these realms..and carries way more political clout.
Islam hates America for this..that She is a nation lofted upon Christian principles..and allows Judaism politcal access to Her system.
For this reason..America will allways be the ultimate AL-HARB for Islam..allways be.."The house of War"

Let'see...in the past week or so mobs of Muslims at an airport attacked and killed an Afghan official who was delaying their flight to Mecca.......a mob of Muslims in India surrounded, stoned and burned a train full of Hindus, killing a least 50 and injuring many more.........and why is it we are supposed to care whether these animals "like us"????????

I couldn't care less what they think. However, they do sound a lot like the left wing in this country.

That's because they've adopted the anti-American and anti-Western discourses and jargon created by the identity left in our countries. Edward Said, Chomsky-like stuff, it's all imbibed as truth since it is self-affirming and deflective. In Osama's video propaganda he almost sounds like one, focusing on Iraq and Israel, their pet peeves. But he throws in Saudi Arabia and his written stuff and later speeches listed his worldwide pastiche of gripes, so that sort of undercut lefty legitimacy for him. As for the Arabs, their intellectuals are lost in the mentalities of deconstruction - a disaster for them. Even Marxism provided at least an urge to build a factory or two.

But it doesn't stop them from sending their kids here for an education.

I used to think that too.
Now I'm not so sure.

I'm with most of the above posters; I could not care less what they think. Most Muslims don't believe that Muslims attacked America; they think the Mossad or some other group of Jews did it (LMAO!). With such separation from reality plus bombing the Israelis every day of the week, believe me, Islamic world, we don't hold charitable views of your nasty rear-ends either!!!

Not ruthless enough. Yet. I'm afraid that will only change when the Musli terrorists set off a weapon of mass destruction in the USA.
