Absolutely. Muslims are humiliated. There was an article in the Foreign Affairs a couple of months back which described America as being in the age of fear, Asia (China, S. Korea and co...) in the age of hope and the Middle East as being in the age of humiliation.
Bush's ongoing war on terror is being launched in Muslim countries (all rich in natural resources, in case of Afghanistan, the oil Pipelines & its geostrategy). In the Middle East, it is percieved as them "killing Muslims."
In the US, racism towards Arabs & hatred towards Muslims are more tolerated than other minority groups. People tend to forget that Muslims are dying everyday in Iraq & that there are American Muslims serving in Iraq.
Instead of singling out a religion & blaming it for the actions of the few, Bush should have sought friendship with the majority of Muslims. Please keep in mind that there 1.3 bil Muslims in the world & it is the fastest growing religion.
Peace & Love

Absolutely not. The people that intentionally misrepresent what his policies and beliefs are do though. We are not fighting Islam and in fact have asked for aid from Muslims in fighting a radical variation of Islam who happen to hate the average moderate Muslim as much as they hate us. The Islamists actually started their war by attacking leaders of moderate Muslim countries such as Egypt some 30 yrs ago then they came to the conclusion that they must defeat the "infidels" that back those moderates before they can be successful at removing the moderates from power and influence. These radical Islamists are not average everyday Muslims but they do scare the daylights out of the moderates-you should be thankful you live in a country in which you dont have to be fearful of someone or some group on that level

once you become attentive to that there is a topic, yet don't understand the actual nature of the undertaking, yet bypass stunning forward and consider out to remedy th subject besides, the outcomes are hardly helpful. while it includes fixing the themes in Iraq, Bush's coverage and the ensuing hatred is the predicted effects.

Muslims and Terrorists have been killing people since the beggining of their exhistance. They should feel lucky America doesnt think as they do about wiping them off the face of the earth. It would be done by now.
Bush has nothing to do with the death and destruction they reap upon their own people and upon other people in the world. Their fanatic religious beliefs are the culprit.
Of course, if your a Bush hater, it is convenient to try and pawn it off on him rather than see it for what it really is, and what it has been for so long.

It's not Bush or America. There is a strong resentment of Muslims in the EU, Australia, Asia and Africa.
Muslims have brought this on themselves, by imposing their radical views on the non-Muslim world. To get a better understanding of the problem, watch this CNN video; Gingrich: I'm deeply worried

I don't think you can pin it on one thing. Its created alot of prejudice towards Muslims. But Muslims have contributed towards that also. If Muslims want to convert more people, how does threatening their safety work. Bullying people into supporting Islam will never work. Why not try a different approach

He claims to have nothing against Muslims, just as he has nothing against democrats. But the truth is that his administration uses fear, in all its forms and against anyone he sees as a threat to HIMSELF, to drive his policies, objectives and survival. And FEAR inevitably morphs into HATE.

I'm a firm believer that crazy Muslims cause plenty of hatred all on their own.
What a concept huh?

Bush has said on numerous occasions that he has nothing against Islam. He has stated publicly that "Islam is good".
What he and many others have an issue with are those who have basically hijacked the religion for the purpose of terrorism. Even moderates in the Arab world are afraid of the extremism that is being forced upon them by this violent faction.
