You should care. The extreme negative attitudes (almost 99% in the
emirates in the gulf coast) will end up creating hundreds of
terrorists. Even the state department has said that the number of
terrorist incidents have increased four fold since Sept 11, 2001 as
compared to the three year period before hand. And as attitudes
towards this country get more hostile, the incidents of terrorist
attacks will increase, while those willing to help us decrease. So we
all have a vested interest in changing these attitudes.
