why do muslims hate the west since 9 11?

Answer 1

They may hate the west , but they like the Nike trainers, burberry clothes , BMW's , Mercedes and certainly western money!!!

Answer 2

cos since then the west has hated muslims. or maybe the 9/11 was the reason the west were looking 4 2 hate all muslims

Answer 3

Many Western countries gave Muslims, Hindus and others plenty of cause to hate them long before 9 11. Remember "The Indian Mutiny" anybody? If this hatred had not already existed, 9 11 would never have taken place.

If Britain was hated by some for its world domination, despite the fact that it took the moral responsibility of trying to administer an Empire, how much more will Americans be hated for achieving world economic domination and not having the moral courage to take responsibility for their actions? Although I do not agree with any form of terrorism, I must admit that the Twin Towers were highly symbolic of the US Economic Empire.

Do Americans know or care that "their right" to the standard of living they enjoy impacts directly on the lives of poverty stricken people around the world? Is there any nation on earth that causes more damage to the environment than the Americans?

Please consider whether the American doctrine of freedom is any more than an expression of the fact that Americans feel free to interfere militarily and economically in the lives of others if it is percieved as being in the American interest.

PS. I'm a Christian, not a Muslim.

Since posting this yesterday, I've just found a book, written by American academic and former Naval officer Chalmers Johnson called "Blowback."

Blowback is a term originally coined by the CIA to describe the unforeseen future consequences of its own illegal activities abroad.

The illegal aid given to Muslim rebels trying to overthrow the Afghan government six months BEFORE the Russian invasion, and in fact precipitating the Russian invasion directly led to the downfall and disintegration of the USSR. A perfect Cold War outcome. The blowback for the Afghan people was that their whole country got bombed flatter than Hiroshima and still has more landmines scattered around than anywhere else in the world. The West is only just beginning to reap the blowback for its role in financing, arming and training Osama bin Laden and others.

The problem for many of us in the West is that we are unaware of the activities our governments are carrying out "on our behalves." This is a variant of the Biblical precept that what you sow you will eventually reap. We are reaping the effects of our goverments sowing.

Answer 4

They love the west and all it has to offer. It's just that they want to take it away from us and keep it for themselves. The ones that live in the west would not wish to live anywhere else. They know what cesspools they come from. But when there's a 9-11 or 7-7 or Madrid subway bombing, you don't hear a lot of sympathy and condemnation from that community.

Answer 5

Muslims love west.That is why they did 9/11
