Imperial
Hubris by Michael Scheuer, 2004, Excerpts
The United States is
hated across the Islamic world because of specific U.S. government policies and
actions. That hatred is concrete not abstract, martial not intellectual, and it
will grow for the foreseeable future. America is hated and attacked because
Muslims believe they know precisely what the United States is doing in the
Islamic world because of the tangible reality of U.S. policy.
None of the reasons
have anything to do with our freedom, liberty, and democracy, but have
everything to do with U.S. policies and actions in the Muslim world. Keep in
mind how easy it is for Muslims to see, hear, experience, and hate the U.S.
policies repeatedly referred to as anti-Muslim.
- U.S. support for Israel that keeps
Palestinians in the Israeli’s thrall.
- U.S. and other Western troops on the
Arabian Peninsula.
- U.S. occupation of Iraq and
Afghanistan.
- U.S. support for Russia, India and
China against their Muslim militants.
- U.S. pressure on Arab energy
producers to keep oil prices low.
- U.S support for apostate, corrupt,
and tyrannical Muslim governments.
