"The USA and the Arab World"

The Arabic World and the US

It seems as though most people in the Arabic world don't dislike the US people, but our politics. According to surveys.



Below is a link to a survey held by the Arab American Institute on November 30, 2017. It surveyed about 8,000 adults throughout the Arabic world and focuses on the attitudes towards conflicts throughout the Arabic world and various other developments.

Some topics included are;
Role in Syria
Role in Iraq
Concern for Yemen
U.S. Policies Under Trump
Israel/Palestine
Iran Deal
and more.


You can find a variety of polls covering different topics on this website.

Some of the reoccurring themes seem to be the Israel/Palestine issue and whether the US is more concerned about its own interests, such as acquiring oil and footholds across the middle east. The US can at times also be a bit hypocritical in its policies. Instilling dictators/funding them and getting rid of democracies if a power that the US does not approve of is elected.
