My wife is a Lebanese Christian who is also half Palistinian. I can assure you she was never taught to hate America; in fact, she loves it here in Georgia and has found it very easy to relate to Southern Culture. She is a better Christian than any bible thumper around here because she has maintained her belief in God in the face of death. She has no love for either Israel or the Muslims, and carries a very special dislike for Syria. In fact, she doesn't care for the Phalangests either. They have all committed evil acts. These people are not monolithic in their beliefs, my friend.
