Candygram from Mubarak: Arabs Hate Us a Lot

The “president” of Egypt says we’ve done it now. Israel has killed two major Arab heroes/mass murderers, and the Arab Street™ is really, really angry, full of hate, and burning for revenge: Mubarak: Arabs Hate U.S. More Than Ever.

PARIS (Reuters) - Arabs in the Middle East hate the United States more than ever following the invasion of Iraq and Israel’s assassination of two Hamas leaders, Egyptian President Hosni Mubarak said in comments published Tuesday.

Mubarak, who visited the United States last week, told French newspaper Le Monde that Washington’s actions had caused despair, frustration and a sense of injustice in the Arab world.

“Today there is hatred of the Americans like never before in the region,” he said in an interview given during a stay in France, where he met President Jacques Chirac Monday.

He blamed the hostility partly on U.S. support for Israel, which assassinated Hamas leader Abdel-Aziz al-Rantissi in a missile strike in the Gaza Strip Saturday weeks after killing his predecessor, Sheikh Ahmed Yassin.

“At the start some considered the Americans were helping them. There was no hatred of the Americans. After what has happened in Iraq, there is unprecedented hatred and the Americans know it,” Mubarak said.

Funny, though; Egypt doesn’t seem to hate that $2 billion in foreign aid they get from us.
