Regardless of who is in office, everybody would still hate the US.  So lets put away the Bush card, it's a useless arguement. 

Say 9/11 took place 5 years earlier, during the clinton years.  Everybody would hate clinton, and he would be the reason my milk goes bad and everything else thats wrong. 

Let me rephrase my entire question:

What has the United States done to Islam that would call for this kind of hatred?

Can a real muslim come onto these forums and answer that question for me?

Bit simplistic but in general I think that would improve things.

No seriously, Israel isn't going anywhere. The US is going to cleanup the Middle East whether it likes it or not.

Hilarious. I know Israel ain't going anywhere but what's funny is your line about the US cleaning up the middle east. The closest the US will get to 'cleaning up the middle east' would be if it was to break out the bleach and mops cos the US army is currently making things worse there and there seems to be no end in sight, only further deterioration.

So, enough of the bantering posts...I, for one, am really getting sick of them in this section.  If you want to fire potshots of stupidity at a subject, go for in the Not BF2, Not BF2S section.

Anyways, let's see...

Pull out of Iraq and let them deal with instituting a democracy and military system.

Pull back into ourselves and open up the idea of isolationism again in order to cover our worldly expenses.  Taxes will have to be increased in order to offset the deficit and pay for reparations in Iraq without having to sacrifice our own social programs.

Start funneling money into National programs other than Defense, plus drop the tax breaks on the wealthiest portion of the nation in order to slow the progression of the income gap.

Open up the discussion of social healthcare reform in order to create a strong healthcare system in this country that isn't built around private companies and constant price wars.

Impeaching Bush won't solve anything, as then we'd have to deal with President Cheney, then Hastert, then that jackass Ted Stevens, and so on and so forth.  What can happen is force the Republicans lose 13 seats in Congress in order to stop the uni-cameral control that is currently present in the House and Senate.  By killing their control, you can effectively shut Bush into a lame-duck president scenario, where he and his party won't be able to do much in the way of legislation until he is out in 2009.

Have you lived under a fucking rock all your life? How about crime number one - unflinchingly supporting the terrorist state of Israel, the arch nemesis of all muslims, despite near unanimous condemnation is just the tip of the iceberg. Seriously, educate yourself on the middle east.

We don't know, that didn't happen.  Clinton completed two successful periods at the office.  The only people who hate him are some Americans.  I have a great respect for president Clinton.  I can't say the same of Bush.  And the key card here is Bush, why do you want to put that card away?? 
America problems will not be arranged in this administration.  Bush will leave the office and American soldiers will still be in Iraq, people from N.O. will be rebuilding their homes, the deficit will be greater than it is now, so next president will have a lot of work.  He will have to thank Bush.

What has the United States done to islam?  You think Muslims hate America, but that's a minority.  You may say that Muslims hate Bush, almost all of them.  The hate towards Bush will end in two years, the hate towards America it's up to next president.  This one, won't change that.

No, they flew planes into WTC coz you support the acts of terrorism of Israel.  They shouldn't do that, but when you push too hard...

Cameron, face it, its them vs. us If you wanna stand on the sidelines go ahead. That doesn't mean they wont take your head either. I don't neeed to read your anti-Israeli articles. I believe in God and the Bible. That is enough for me to feel the way I do about Islam. Your not religious, fine. But when the leaders of Islam say, death to the west, thats a problem. I don't care that the common muslim wants peace and a normal life. The problem is that they are not in charge, it's the extremist that rule the countries and make the decisions.

Puppet regimes?  like Syria?  Thats a puppet regime, a very dangerous one imo.  Puppet regimes are sometimes necessary to get a real regime going.  Including the current Afghanistan regime, that's a puppet regime, but a necessary one imo.  Sure it has business deals written all over it, but what did you think was gonna happen?  Somebody is gonna make money off of those natural resources one way or another.

"stop interfering in the politics of sovereign nations", this is a great point but just doesn't float in the real world.  Sure, in fantasy land where all nations control their armies and citizens, it wouldn't be necessary if we lived in such a world.  But we dont live in that world, so sometimes it needs to be done.  Some countries are too weak to do so themselves. 

My opinion of Israel is this.  They do what they feel they need to do to ensure their survival. 

What sets them apart from the arabs is that they're not publicly stating to the world that they want to destroy any arab nation.  They could if they wanted to you know, and YES with the weapons WE gave them.  They need nukes more than anybody.

It's because of Bush that there's so much discrimination towards muslims, then you want them to come defend themselves and tell you a bunch things that the U.S has done to Islam? It's Bush, always has been.
