You left out Carter.
He's the one that started it.

Since Clinton refused to bring in Bin Laden, obviously he would be the most popular with the Middle East.
See:
Losing bin Laden: How Bill Clinton’s Failure Unleashed Global Terror and Shadow War: The Untold Story of How Bush Is Winning the War on Terror by Richard Miniter, a fellow at the Hudson Institute.

The Soviet Union.
The mess down there is a result of proxy wars mixed with 12th Century Islamic Zealotry.

None of them, Carter and Clinton caused more strife thru pure ignorance of the situation.

Dwight D Eisenhower! I said Dwight Eisenhower because of Operation Ajax, where the US CIA involved itself in a coup against a democratically elected government in Iran for a percentage of Iranian oil. That worked until 1979 when the Islamic Revolution took place and they took 62 Americans hostage for 444 days.

Clinton!
Probably because he had the chance to catch Bin Laden but chose Monica's company instead.
Then, when Bush 2 got into office he had a LOT to clean up of Clintons mess!

I think the biggest problem is that some middle eastern regimes use propaganda to get their citizens to hate the USA & Israel. I have read where Saudi Arabian schoolbooks are very anti US for example. Combine government efforts like this with radical Islam preachers and it is no wonder that some of them turn to extreme measures and terrorism.

Reagan got the ball rolling, Bush 2 cemented the GOP's place in history as the party of war, torture, and lies.

hmmmm lets see...
Reagan supplied Iranian terrorist with weapons.
Reagan authorized microbes that could be weaponized to be sent to Saddam.
Reagan sold "dual purpose" farm chemicals and airplanes that delivered them as chemical weapons to Iraq despite sanctions, and Iranian complaints of chemical warfare.
The terrorists of today were Reagan's freedom fighters, so he definitely armed and funded them.
So I guess I would have to go with Reagan.
