They did not have their land taken away Now you are really confused with what is the so-called "their land". many of whom went to western universities So there goes the notion of how they hate America because they are jealous. What kind of jealousy that could be to give up your luxury life to go on your suicide mission? but it too often seems that this "love" doesn't get expressed in any positive way at least for 4 and maybe 3 at least not by the Arab governments Again I have to say this, not mean to be disrespect, but Americans just don't get it. People have different views of values, of the world. Americans talk more about individual values, the others don't. It's all because of their history, their past experiences, their tradition. Some people are more wary about the oppression by their own government, some are more wary about the foreigners, some are more wary about other religions. You got to understand not everybody think in America's way. Let me use an analogy here, just like a troublesome couple. They may hate each other for years, fighting like hell and one day you can't take it anymore so you step in. Well all the sudden they all turn their angry on you. It may not be the normal behaivor of Americans, but it could well be what the others do. See my point?
