Yes, there is a tendency for many in the Middle East in particular to explain an awful lot of European and American behavior as a war on Islam. There was an interesting article in the Washington Post on how Saudi Arabia is using this to parry Swedish criticism of its human rights record. A lot of clips from the west talking about how awful Islam is as a religion don't really help the cause. |
Might have something to do with the nearly a millennium of calls for and attempts to reclaim the holy land from Muslims as well. |
