I think economic imperialism and the exploitation of the third world has a lot to do with why this is happening. That and US support, economically and otherwise, of Israel. And I've gotta admit if I was a muslim that would piss me off.

Joe,
Why is it you claim to so easily see the propaganda of others but not that on yourself? Muslim countries bailed out on a number of agreements and proposed agreements with the US in the 1950's. Only in 1967 did the US become a strong military supporter of Israel. The number one exporters of weapons to Israel prior to that were France and the USSR. The Soviets supplied Israel in 1948. The French and British fought with Israel in 1956.
In fact, Muslim countries ditched on the US under the influences and promises of the Soviet Union and Nasser long before US military support of Israel.
What your claiming is just propaganda started by Nasser. It filled the radio airwaves in the Middle East. It has continued as a popular view to this day.
