Yes, but their common hatred of Israel is a great unifying force.

Your point being?

Most citizens that are instructed to "hate" a country from birth by a controlled media will hate it. So?

For example, most Americans disapprove of communism in Cuba, even though most of us don't know squat about Cuba's social system. We were told by our media/government to have that view, so we do.

So?

re: Yes, but their common hatred of Israel is a great unifying force

That is not really true. Israel is a scape goat here. Problems existed long before Israel came to existance.

Remember:
"From the Halls of Montezuma,
To the Shores of Tripoli;
We fight our country's battles
In the air, on land, and sea;
First to fight for right and freedom
And to keep our honor clean;
We are proud to claim the title
Of UNITED STATES MARINES.....
