Maybe if we started bombing Israel they would like us more. That, and started wearing towels or table cloths on our heads.

I rather like the way we're reaching out and touching them now. It may not win their hearts but we will either decrease their population to irrelevant numbers or they will finally get the message not to srew with us. Either way is fine with me.

If 60% of the people in the Muslim world believe that Israel was behind the 9/11 attack, then they are either insane or deliberately ignorant, and there is no reasoning with them. I think a better solution is for the Moslem countries to search THEIR souls and figure out why Americans have such a low opinion of THEM.

Handle these fanatics the same as we did the Nazi and Imperial Japanese Fanatics during WWII. Not a single fanatic killed by us or our allies ever hurt another innocent victim. Not a single killed fanatic ever harmed an American or America again!

They have been programmed to hate us and want us dead for decades. They have been programmed that we are weak willed and will not fight to eradicate terrorism. We can't do anything about programmed minds. We can follow the examples of WWII in dealing with fanatics who want to kill us and destroy our country!

I spent all weekend practicing how to reach out to young Muslims, from 300 yards.

Seriously, there's not much we can do to reach out while the vast majority of them adhere to goofball conspiracy theories.

Why is it our job to fix their problems? They put those oppressive governments in power, they have to get them out.

U.S. must reach out to young Muslims

I agree, and here's the tool to do just that:

No, what we need to do is clearly state that we will not be suicide bombed into submission by Third World fanatics, and that if push comes to shove we can inflict horrors upon them that will make their current miserable existence seem like paradise on Earth in comparison.

Must?
Must?

What kind of arrogant, ignorant S.O.B. would presume to tell us what we must do?

What we must do is protect ourselves, our families, our community and our country.
If I need any help from the mentally deficient, I will ask for it thank you.
But don't call me, I'll call you.

The survey was only useful in demonstrating how well the gov't controlled press influences the subjects of the dictatorships they live in. The author seems to have learned the wrong lesson about "Lesson 1". The reason more free societies have less anti-American feelings is that are exposed to more facts, and less gov't propaganda.
