I claimed earlier:
** No way, most opinion polls view any "Jihadddi" like Osama as a real hero.**

Samantha disputed:
<< Please present the data. I think you are mistaken.>>

I now respond with the following from Tanzeem Al Islami. The underlining is
my own.
http://www.tanzeem.org/resources/articles/articles/abidullah-misconceiving.htm

"... We fail to understand that although the "New US War" is waged under the
banner of terrorism but it is absolutely not against terrorism alone. No
matter what the US may claim to the contrary, the main objective is to bring
an end to all the hopes of Islamic revival and establishment of an Islamic
government anywhere in the world.
Jim Hoagland of the Washington Post (September 15) testifies to this fact in
clear words: "This is not a war between nations, religions or classes. It is
a broad conflict that pits moderates against extremists within Islam." Very
few among the Muslims have been trying in vain to explain that there is no
"liberal," "moderate" or "fundamental" classification of Islam. However, the
western media kept on pumping these ideas and as a result, opinion makers
like Jim Hoagland now advise the US that exploiting these "dichotomies is the
great challenge, and the great opportunity, for the United States now."
The widely propagated myth is that Islamic "fundamentalists" are in minority.
Algeria and Egypt are reaping the wrath of this misconception. Treading the
same line, although General Musharraf said that only 15 percent of the
Pakistanis opposed his support for the US anti- terrorism efforts, Reuters
reported that nearly two out of three Pakistanis questioned in a Gallup Poll
said they opposed Pakistan's joining any US-led coalition. It means, 66 per
cent of the population is being considered as a "minority." It also means
that at least this 66 per cent of the population is being perceived as
militants while the rest is law-abiding citizens..."

This is straight from the Islamic press, Sam. Please read the article from
the link.

"To gauge Arab opinion, the Gallup organisation conducted interviews with
almost 10,000 people in nine Islamic countries during December and January.
The found that just over half of the people surveyed in Saudi Arabia, Iran,
Pakistan, Indonesia, Turkey, Lebanon, Kuwait, Jordan and Morocco had a poor
opinion of the United States and of the US president, George Bush.

The poll found that although 67% of people believed the September 11 attacks
were morally unjustifiable, 61% did not believe western news reports that
Arabs had been the hijackers.

USA Today quoted Gallup's editor-in-chief, Frank Newport, as saying
respondents found the US "ruthless, aggressive, conceited, arrogant, easily
provoked, biased. The people of Islamic countries have significant grievances
with the west in general and with the United States in particular."

CNN reported that those polled found American values materialist and secular
and believed American culture was a corrupting influence on their societies.

Gallup, which funded and designed the study, said it had gone ahead because
"accurate information about how Muslims abroad view the west has previously
not been available".

And:

"It is true that USA has been tring its utmost to eradicate Muslims from the
face of the earth one way or another. Now the question of WTC is merely a
reason under the umbrella of which it is embarking upon a highly secret
strategy to through with the Taliban and thereafter the muslims of other
countries. The question might be that why would USA do such thing? well the
answer is very simple. They are afraid of the Taliban government because they
are operating according to the Islamic Principles. USA wants the whole world
to be following its way of living and follow its orders like the other
morally scrupled countries. But its have forgotten one thing that is Muslim's
way of living and governance varies from their. Muslims cannot follow the
ideas of that of a non-muslim country and its government. USA have been
embarking upon many anti-muslim policies since the taking over of this
government..."

The evidence is abundent, their motivations various, and their goal unified,
based on what is perceived by the Muslims as success. They seem to know what
they want, and its surely past-time for Americans to know also.
