You make an interesting point...not to nit pick, but...

The Israelis might be wrong about which country is the most hated, but that has nothing to do with the following statement...

we were already the biggest target of the radical groups...remember Sept 11th, the USS Cole, the original WTC bombing etc etc etc ?

The question is not who is the most hated. The question is who has suffered the most from documented terrorist attacks? The references to the USS Cole and the WTC seem to narrow the assertion to actual terrorist attacks.

What country in the world is the most hated is another question altogether. Your guess is as good as mine.

But I do think that slider's assertion was faulty. We may be the "biggest target" but we have not been the most targeted....as he seemed to imply.

Up until the present it would appear that Israel has suffered the most acts of terrorism....I feel most Israelis would agree.

My comment had nothing to do with any country's relative popularity.
