Of course the arabs will use our support for Isreal against us to but the fact that places like Saudi arabia which practices the most extreme form of Islam is a US ally because of our protection of them and our buying their oil shows the whole "arabs hate us because of Isreal" falls way down the totem pole.

Your grasp of the middle east is amusing if not frightening. Right wing propaganda By Reagan and two bushes has created this line of thinking that is completely oblivious to rational thought.

You do realize that the US needs the Saudis at this point in time more than the Saudis need the US.
