That's like how we thought about our Native Americans in the 19th Century and just stole the land they lived on for maybe thousands of years in North America.
Many years ago I was in the Middle East and went shopping in Muslim owned stores and could not be treated better. In many stores I received a free coffee and the owners were very nice. Propaganda is very ugly no where it is spewed.
Intolerance about others will always be trumped by cooperation and understanding.
I am sure that a lot of this anti-Americanism is started in Muslim Schools at a very early age and what these students are receiving very huge amounts of distorted facts. We were forced fed this same type of stuff about the Japanese Americans right after Pearl Harbor.
