Maybe so, Thomas, but I'll bet they'd notice a lot less if we weren't funding 
both the Israeli weapons programs AND most of the Muslim dictatorships. In 
fact, we're lucky that most people around the world don't think too hard about 
the US Aid To Dependent Dictators programs. Then they'd be REALLY mad:

And as far as Bin Laden goes, who put him into the guerrilla warfare 
business? Not Muslims. That was our very own geniuses from the CIA.

The bottom line is that the US isn't going to get to Mars by marching back 
and forth in the Middle East trying to reconquer the Holy Lands. That meme bit 
Europe once before, and it's time we became immune to it.
