“Americans are the world's worst terrorists”, “Bush = Hitler”, bla bla bla... These are common themes that are continually exalted by Peace Protesters. Its really powerful propaganda, but doesn’t it all sound a little familiar? Hmmm... try to think of where you may have heard similar slogans. Ahhhh... at anti-Israeli protests! Just substitute Israelis for Americans and Sharon for Bush.
Before the battles began, Hussein, bin Laden and Mullah Omar could count on a huge support base against the US from not only Socialist sympathizers, but from a homegrown source. The root of anti-Americanism in the Muslim world begins with anti-Semitism. A worldwide network that has kept Israel from full membership rights in the UN. This anti-Israeli sentiment dominates the UN so much that out of 131 resolutions passed by the Security Council 88 of them criticized or opposed Israel. Never mind Pol Pot's Cambodia, the Soviet Union, Pinoche's Chile, Saddam Hussein or any mass murdering regime of the last 50+ years. A tiny country fighting for its existence against terrorists and blood thirsty neighbors is the focus of seemingly universal condemnation.
For almost a century the Islamic world has been in a state of war with Israel. Thanks to the Middle East Media Research Institute, transcripts that were translated from Arabic and Farsi detail the Islamic world's media campaign against the Jews. Islamic media sources routinely dish out a steady diet of anti-Semitism. Take for instance the Palestinian Authority’s weekly televised sermons. Here are some quotes:
March 19, 2004 - “The Jews today – there is no doubt – are avenging their ancient forefathers, the sons of apes and pigs.”

September 25, 2001 - “…revisionist [historians] have proven that this crime [the Holocaust], carried out against some of the Jews, was planned by the Jews’ leaders, and was part of their policy…”
October 14, 2000 - “Wherever you are kill those Jews and those Americans…”
You can also read or watch stories of Jews that slaughter non-Jews so that they make bread and pastries with the blood, how Jews plan to economically take over the world, watch children encourage other children to become martyrs (praising suicide bombers is quite popular) and lots more. Incitement to violence is the rule in the Muslim media, not the exception.
So in predominately Muslim countries there has existed a mindset that has forever poisoned Muslim relations with the Jews. Not vice-a-versa. This mobilized propaganda machine was greased to confront the US long before the Iraq crisis.
Maybe its time to say that Islamist Terrorists are the world’s worst terrorists. Or is that too inflammatory? If you think so then just visit the MEMRI website so you can see what real inflammatory statements look like. What is happening is that you are suffering from Stockholm Syndrome.
