    Not a shock to be honest. Israel is fairly self-explanatory as well as the United States has been for a while. Though it is pretty sad how low of a figure that is for Israel considering the sample countries. None of those except maybe and France (maybe) have a lower than normal view, 17 percent positive seems very low.

    I am personally wondering whether people dislike israel because of their actions (bombing, being idiots, not giving back land to palestine), or because of anti-semetism. It's a valid concern. If they are disliked, it should be because of their behavior not because of some random hatred for an ethnicity.

    I would guess anti-semitism or at least anti-Israel is a big factor for the poll, as they rank as one of the least liked in most areas of the world.

    No surprise at all that Israel came first.

    No surprise at all that you popped up in this thread either:D

    Don't believe BBC they are full of propaganda i think gworld, AGS or the thread starter stated this in the past on this forum, i don't know which one exactly as they all sound the same but they are the same ones who will support this thread.

    Government lies everything, no read this thread!!!!:)

    My friend if you are unable to read or just plain dumb I will give you a pass. But that fact that you talk in for and against in only black and whites show your little knowledge outside the that box that holds your entire reality.

    For or against......Calling me John Kerry....LOL You do not have a clue. I am starting to almost feel sorry for you.

    You have no moral authority to give anyone anything, let alone talk about being dumb ;)

    Just because you don't like Jews doesn't mean everyone does. Just because you avoid every question, doesn't mean we don't see the truth.

    And you do not have any basis for this statement other than your own misguided assumptions and ludicrous conclusions. So if you can point to one post of mine that says I do not like Jews or where I put Jews in a bad light....please share.

    You on the other hand show your complete hatred and disdain for every Muslim and Arabs in general in just about every word you write here and every post you make and respond to. Your prejudices are clear and very apparent. But to your ilk, an Arabs life means nothing when compared to an Israeli. And anyone that will try and show the true nature of the ME conflict, someone even that is an Israeli citizen and a Jew like Bathsheba Ratzkoff, becomes a "Islamic apologist". You I would guess are not an Israeli so your reality of the conflict is what has been spoon fed to you in the media. One side and one side only. That is apparently all you want to know.

    I would almost peg you for a misguided rapture believing Christian that think they need a escalation in the ME conflict to bring their rapture day to light. Are you in this category, or are you being influenced by someone in this category? Are you under the belief that the enemy of Israel are the Muslims and when the rise up to destroy them God will wisk you up into the heavens forever? This would explain a lot of your postings.

    So I ask you are you hoping for this bloodshed for your own selfish misguided beliefs?

    so what was the makeup of the people surveyed? What what their race? What religion? What sex? All of those are important if you really want to have weight behind your answer to a survey...

    Your posts so understandable and correct that I don't even need to post here :p

    Sure I do. I read your posts. Oddly enough, you don't deny it either. Rather, you are so sure you've covered every step, you challenge me to find a specfic post with specific text.

    Again, I know your game better than you do. Let's play ball :)

    I don't know exactly, but you didn't know that either but you quickly jumped into launching accusations towards the muslims. What causes you to hate those people so much?

    Why would I need to deny anything. It is your accusation which you have no basis for. You know it, I know it, and everyone here knows it.

    Might be true but then again everyone is biased in a smaller or larger proportion. I don't think there's a single news channel that isn't biased when it comes to certain subjects

    I just made a fair statement...all you have to do is watch any news channel and you will see how it seems many muslim influenced country's don't like Israel...Iran, Syria, Lebanon, Palestinians, etc....what is interesting is that the same people also hate the USA and GB...However, I don't personally know of other countries that hate israel...can you name some that are not muslim influenced countries?

    Good, so you'll be a little more careful in the future since apparently you don't want people to know. Eyes are watching.
