You make no allowance for culture and upbringing then? Everyone has to behave exactly like you? Go tell that to the Catholics in Northern Ireland then. Everyone's view is tainted by their environment but you should rise above that and read what is being said and not what you like to think is being said.
The reason that 'so many dislike folks in the Mid-East' as you put it is not perhaps so many as you might perceive, being brought up in America in a culture full of hate for all things Middle Eastern. You might also perhaps be offended to learn that so many folk dislike America for exactly the same reason and their aggressive and opinionated takeover of the world.
You need to step outside of your environment and try to take a more balanced view of the world.

Haha, we are literally down from them.
If I point at Iran I have to point downwards at the ground at whatever angle from my vantage point.
If you want to see what Satan is just read about Muhammad, all that raping, pillaging, converting by the sword, pedophilia, lying, stealing (and stealing other men's wives), warring.

Tough calling the U.S. "the great Satan". We're not run by a religion that publically or even privately stones women to death for adultery. Nor do we oppress women, and force them to dress up where the sun can't shine on them like this:
Nor do we have any goals of establishing world wide sharia law at the expense of other people's freedoms of choice. If you want to see what Satan is just read about Muhammad, all that raping, pillaging, converting by the sword, pedophilia, lying, stealing (and stealing other men's wives), warring.

The way the OP starts the whole thread would be a good example, in my opinion, for why so many dislike folks in the Mid-East. This hostility is all we see in many cases.
Personally, I only hate people who hate me first, with a precious few exceptions.
Again , you take your self very seriously.
Like you are your govt.
You are just a tool that they use you when it is election time. That is democracy.
We hate tyranny , invasion and destruction.
Are you supporting these ?

Yeah, the Catholics who are so prevalent in America are so much better with no blood on their hands.
Seems to me there was a time in the US when showing an ankle was whorish.
Not World wide Sharia law...just World wide US agendas and "Do as we say or we'll change your leadership and Govt."
Yup, no similarities at all.
Peace

With all the good aspects of religion , it is only bigotry that you inherit. It is not hard to understand.
You neglect the facts in your religion , which I respect, and then you attack on others belief.
I suggest you look at the picture of your religion as wide as you look at mine.
Then may your comprehension be near to justice.
Otherwise it is a reflection of bigotry.

Le's play "what if".
What if; Saddam hadn't invaded Kuwait?
There would have been no Gulf War I.
What if; the Twin Towers hadn't been destroyed by 19 mideastern terrorists?
There would have been no Gulf War II.
It's easy and "chic" to blame America for all the ills in the world. But, without the introduction of islamic extremists, there wouldn't be much to complain about.
My humble opinion.
