They are terrified of your ingenuity and hospitality, they want you to hate so much of this earth that you hate yourselves enough to kill yourselves for them.
Show the haters that you're more than bombs, bullets and death, not too long ago I thought the same but I've now realized that you want freedom as much as every other human on this planet.
Godspeed.

A violent Islamic Theocracy is easy to rally up opposition against. The Israelis don't want to see the Muslims become likable in the eyes of the general public of other western countries because it would cost them billions of dollars per year in "military aid".
I assume you're American: what gives you the right to tell these people what to do with their lives?
Your country has been fucking them over for a generation now.
Just let them sort it out for themselves, and get out of the way.
I dont think it was a negative question.. i rather have people ask than assuming... ;)
I'd still be interested.
I could have phrased it this way, which doesn't sound any more polite:
Are you an American?
If so, what gives you the right to tell these people what to do with their lives?
Just as rude as the first one, really!
ummm.. me? no i am not.. I am an Arab/Muslim myself.
Oh, OK, thanks.
I just realized that you're not the OP.
Carry on.
Did I say that we should intervene?
Some basic reading comprehension would do wonders for you.

what the west should know too that Arabs and Muslims do not want to be associated with these insane radicals that think they represent us.
We look at them as a cult.. a break-away religion that wants to use our name but we refuse to allow them.
Unfortunately, the media likes to protray them as how Muslims are.
remember how other extremist from other religions try to use the name of religion too.
The numbers though are not on our sides, we have 1.5 billion Muslim worldwide. and the handful that commits crimes are the ones that make it to the TV...
now an honest questioin to all of you out there.
What would YOU do if someone insist in speaking in your name when committing a crime?
You're absolutely right.
Where are you from originally?
Lebanese Canadian... lived in Canada most of my life
