How to Favorably Impress the Muslim World

Desert the Jews and then hand over your wallets.

SPIEGEL ONLINE: Would a clear increase of US pressure on the Israeli government lead to a rise in approval ratings (for Obama in the Islamic world) again?

Mogahed: There are several things that people have told us would improve their opinion of the US. In the Arab world, the Israeli-Palestinian conflict is a very important issue. But in other parts of the world it may be things like technology transfer or humanitarian aid. It depends a lot on the region.

Hey, I've got a better idea. Why don't we just sign trade agreements where we buy high-tech goods from the Muslim countries? I mean, they've got a lot of it, right? After all, like they've been telling us in all those lovely beheading and Palestinian riot videos, theirs is the superior way, isn't it?
