Saudi schools that teach nothing but hate toward the west. What kind of ally is that?

Hmmmm, wasn't there a history in which Americans learned about the evil of communism? Or the evil of everybody who doesn't agree with the USA? Or about black's being inferior? It's the same everywhere.

Bin Laden hates ALL countries that do not conform to their religion.

Yes, because they can potentially be terrorists.  Is not that they dont embrace western culture but actively seek to destroy it.  Take for instance France and England, where they are not allowed to display religious symbols in fear of offending the Muslims.

First of all, don't assume that all Muslims hate our guts or that all Muslims are intent upon murdering unbelievers. That's a ridiculous overgeneralization.\n\nSecond, the truth is that you have to judge the response according to the situation. It's always best to have a many-layered approach to political problems abroad: ongoing diplomacy whenever possible, force only in the most extreme cases, and a carefully designed foreign policy that will not exacerbate the problem by giving them an excuse to hate us in the first place.

It is the paranoia of Americans and the West itself. \nOur Muslim brothers are very well-educated and overwhelming majority of them have stood against violence and hatred incited by others.\nSuch great thinkers as Avicenna (founder of modern medicine), Alfraganus (whose astronomic works were laid as foundation for Dante Alighieri's Divina Commedia), Al-Horezmi(whose works are the basis of today's algoritm and IT at all) and many more thousands have studied in madrassa. Are they terrorists? \nHow many of Western people have memorized at least one chapter of Bible, how many Christians read Bible AT ALL? How many of them follow the Ten Commandments by Moses or teachings of Jesus? Unlike those many people who have tried to answer the question above without even being to madrassa or knowing their graduates, I would state that it would be a grave mistake for Western people to ascribe violent characteristics to religious schools - madrassas. \nRegarding shutting down all of them - let's shut down Catholic schools in Northern Ireland, who are preaching for killing protestants or American sects who are preaching for American heartland and etc.\nAgain, my dear Western friends, I would recommend You to look more deeply into matter before simply typing something for gaining points in this Yahoo! Answers.\nIthink this has been created for people would share some knowledge, based on facts and objective analysis.\nPeace be upon You.

I totally agree with the last thing you typed.  The difference between Muslim and Western world to ME is the Governments, what gets taught in schools and the Religions.  Other than that, we are all people and I for one would love to see all the BS stop and have PEACE ON EARTH.

Just in case you are not fluent in the history, the Arabs have always had a hatred for Jews. Clear back in Biblical times they were taken prisoners and taken to the conquerors country as slaves... Babylonia, Egypt, a couple others I can't recall. The US backs Israel, making us also get on the hate list... but there are apparently other countries on the list also..Mostly of the western civilization.. not restricted to it however.. they are now taking over (or attempting to) countries and governments..

I understand your question, but, unfortunately the answer isn't an easy one.  Apparently you disagree with the type cast or stereotype.  But, look around the world.  That is the choice that their culture has made.  SInce the early seventies I have spent several months in the middle east nations for a variety of reasons.  And yes, I have met some very wonderful people.  However, throughout that part of the world there is a constant undercurrent of hatred for the west... the devil... the evil of democratic western countries and that list is topped by the U.S.  Which leaves us in a precarious position as a society.  We don't understand why they hate us, but they do.  So it is natural as culture to hate back.  So goes the viscious cycle.

Ignorance is the base of all hate. Many Americans are unwilling to learn about the culture of their neighbors, mainly becausse of our egocentrism. We (in general...) believe that America and the American way IS THE WAY so what is the point of educating ourselves about a culture or people that "don't matter"? This is called willed ignorance. An unwillingness to learn. And this ignorance leads to misunderstanding which leads to hate. The only thing one can do to stop this is to not hate...stop the cycle...eventually all the old bastards will die off. (ha).

Why would anyone want to start a native american school in Saudi Arabia??

It is simply because they have a different culture and social background. For example, they might find the relations between a man and a woman outside marrige is unacceptable while in the Western Culture it is. So it's not a matter of hatred but a matter of being different. The best thing to do is to respect each other culture and accept diversity.\n\nIf Islam anti-western then no one in the Islamic world will welcome some of the western civics or mordernisation.

First there are many Americans who are Muslim and of the Muslim Faith- so the hate that you refer to is more directed to us from a nation or country or extremist groups-not Muslims themselves-the Muslim Faith is a very peaceful faith.\n\nI think most reasons the Americans are hated is the lack of understanding or ability to respect other cultures.\nand \nThe desire to control and manipulate the trade market.\nThe desire of America to monopolize.\n\nIt is a shame that these attacks and acts of hatred are directed at American Citizens themselves when it is the big corporations and government that are the culprits not the people.  WE are now in a state of Corporations running the country and not people.\n\nI do feel support of Israel plays a factor too and the fact that are war prescience in Iraq is more a hindrance than a benefit.\n\nI do not feel Islam is Terrorism and that attitude creates more enemies than allies.  Terrorists are deviations from the just cause and harbor the Hate.  Not Islam not Muslims.

Not all of us hate the Saudi people. There's a "backlash" effect from the 9/11 tragedy. It's sadly, the result of ignorance about the Islamic faith. Most don't realize that terrorists are to muslims as the KKK is to christianity.

As long as people from the middle east continue to put their children in these draconian madrassas that indoctrinate youth to the ways of terror, there will never be a solution beyond every Christian dying or every Muslim dying. These barbaric schools bastardize the Quran into their sick, twisted interpretations of the holy word and pound it into the heads of children as young as three years old. Three, four and five year old are shown videotapes of "freedom fighters" dragging American bodies through the street de-sensitizing of any humanity that remains. They learn nothing but vile hatred and are taught that the surest way to Allah is to kill Americans and their allies.\n\nNow, don't get me wrong. The vast majority of Muslims are peace loving and want only what most people want - a fair shot at a decent life. But, much like here in America, the radicalized factions of society grab the most attention and seem like they are the majority. I currently live in metro Detroit, and we have the largest Muslim population in the US. What goes on with radical Islam sickens most of them, and they are good, hard-working, decent people.\n\nUntil an answer is found to deal with the madrassas, however, nothing can be done. It will take generations and generations.

As a Saudi I must say, that you are being rude and disrespectuful, as you SHOW GREAT IGNORANCE..\n\nAnd about the "Saudi text" which you were refferring to.. well\nWe believe Judaism and Christianity are deviant religions, since Jews REJECTED AND HATED AND STILL ACTUALLY hate Jesus Christ.. as we also believe Christianity is also deviant because Jesus never TAUGHT ANY TRINITY, and for more insight, please check my answer to a questioner asking "Can anyone give me PROOF against Christianity?" go to my personal page and u'll find it there, JACKa$$\n\nand about the apes, are jews.. etc..\n\nWELL, AS A MATTER OF FACT THIS IS TAKEN FROM A STORY MENTIONED IN THE QURAN TALKING ABOUT SOME JEWS WHO USED TO BREAK THE SHABBAT, WE BELIEVE GOD TURNED THEM INTO APES AS A PUNISHMENT FOR THEM AND A LESSON TO BE LEARNT FOR THOSE WHO DIDN'T BREAK IT, SO THEY KEEP BEING PIOUS AND SIN NOT.. SO.... THAT SENTANCE DID NOT MEAN THAT JEWS ARE ALL APES.. RATHER, THOSE WHO BROKE THE SHABBAT WERE THE ONES TURNED TO APES..\n\nRead: \n\nQuran 2:63. And (O Children of Israel, remember) when We took your covenant and We raised above you the Mount (saying): "Hold fast to that which We have given you, and remember that which is therein so that you may become Al-Muttaqûn (the pious - See V.2:2).\n\n2:64. Then after that you turned away. Had it not been for the Grace and Mercy of Allâh upon you, indeed you would have been among the losers.\n\n2:65. And indeed you knew those amongst you who transgressed in the matter of the Sabbath (i.e. Saturday). We said to them: "Be you monkeys, despised and rejected."\n\n2:66. So We made this punishment an example to their own and to succeeding generations and a lesson to those who are Al-Muttaqûn (the pious).\n\nand FINALLY, BRING YOUR EVIDENCES THAT SUPPORT THE CLAIM WHICH YOU MADE.. WHEN YOU SAID: "while the swine are the Christians, the infidels of the communion of Jesus.”\n\nWHERE DOES IT SAY THAT IN THE QURAN?!\n\n\nI'm done you f****t

First of all, the West does not hate Arabs and the ones that do, hate because they sterotype an entire group of people based on the actions of some (kind of like you did by assuming the entire US hates Arabs)

I think the government is corrupt and supports terrorist but I don't blame the people in general. The exact same thing can be said of america. I'm no more responsible for nor do I support my countries actions any more than most of the saudi citizens. So in other words come on over brother.
