I agree with TW's reply. I gather that we are much more popular in Indonesia than other Muslim countries because of our aid after the Tsunami.
People are not fools all over the planet. We are not only surviving better than the rest of the world, we are throwing huge amounts of resources on various bonfires of pleasure: NASCAR, jetskies, RVs, where to stop? Some of those resources are virtually seized from local residents in various regions much poorer than us.
