In this world Americans have been very tolerant to all cultures around the world.
But seems like there has been very little tolerance of Americans.
Can they be tolerant of us?
It seems we are very tolerant towards cultures, violence, and attacks
A few quotes below:
Quote:
Every time a Muslim terrorist is caught trying to kill Americans in the name of Islam, the media and the politicians immediately go on full alert over the threat of an “Islamophobic backlash” against Muslims.
Quote:
So far Muslims have murdered thousands of Americans. And a single American filmmaker killed his Muslim partner when the latter expressed support for Al Qaeda right after 9/11. That was 9 years ago.
As of now the domestic murder scoreboard reads, “Muslims 3,000 – Americans 1”. Anyone trained in the arcane arts of basic addition and subtraction can’t help but look at that score and wonder if it’s perhaps the people who have a kill count in the thousands who need to be taught tolerance, more than the schlubs who were just barely tolerant enough to score a 1.
The muslims have no tolerance for us. Just as I have no tolerance for them. It is a religion of hate and terrorism and anyone trying to deny that is wrong.

Perhaps if you'd take an objective look at our policies towards majority Muslim nations, you might see why some Muslims have little tolerance for Americans. They don't hate us for our "freedoms" as many idiots would have you believe. The Muslims didn't trip across a copy of our Constitution in a cave somewhere and get pi**ed off.
This is not to say that the Muslims are always correct in their assessment of us and many of our actions have been well meaning. But to think that we've been tolerant of them and that we've always been evenhanded in our approach and dealings with the Muslim world is just not true.

The war in Iraq is just the latest example.
You are comparing civilian and military.
Muslims has no tolerance of Americans.
We are very tolerant of them even though they killed 3000 Americans.

We have different policies toward different Muslim nations. The people that are against us are also against some of our Muslim friends. It's not because they're focused on a nation, many don't even claim a nation. They don't like the presence of "infidels" on what they consider to be Muslim land, which crosses many national borders, despite the fact that we are there by the permission of the host nation.
Maybe Muslims are holding Americans responsible for what the American government does.
Well, someone has to do it!
The appropriate apology to the Muslims would be to hang Bush and friends.
That apology would have meaning.
Yes, because Bush and friends are the ones who created and gave arms to Israel, decided to build military bases in Islamic countries, and started the whole policy of tromping around the middle east, telling people what to do.

True.
However, often times we confuse the desires of the host nations government with the desires of their populations at large. We may be quite popular with the Saudi Royal Family and their lackeys.... but that doesn't have a damn thing to do with the Saudi on the street. These governments and their populations clearly have different interests.
If an overwhelming majority of the population in ANY nation (not just Muslim nations) are anti-American despite the position of their government, that should be taken in very serious consideration.
In the case of the Arabian Peninsula for example, i'd bet that in very strong majority numbers, the overriding sentiment is that U.S. troops should not be stationed within those borders. If that's the case, i don't really care WHY they don't want us there....that's not my business. If it's because they think we're infidels, fine. But no matter how nebulous the reason may be, i don't want to be somewhere that i'm not wanted.
