I assume that you mean most Muslims in general........am I right?
If so, I had heard the same thing from from the same sources but after serving in an Airborne combat Unit &, then, later, in a Rapid Deployment Team for the Mid East where higher security clearance levels were required. I learned the degree to which U.S. media & many officials in US Government lie to build support for disastrous, immoral and counterproductive. Military Operations.
I decided to go to the Mid East & find out for myself & spent 10 - 11 months in Iraq, Iran, Syria, Lebanon, Lebanon etc. until the '73 War broke out I didn't have a single hostile encounter the whole time but only experienced generous hospitality & a friendly curiosity about American people, music, cars, etc etc.
The question I was asked most frequently was: "Why do Americans suddenly hate us?" I tried to explain the toxic influence of AIPAC etc & a blatantly bias pro-Israel media but they still couldn't understand how so many Americans so easily duped into hating people whom they had never met.
The Iraq War & lies leading up to attacking Iraq (an earlier "Ally") is a chilling example that too many people have forgotten. Leading up to the Iraq War, over 80% of Americans were easily duped into a War with a country that 10% of Americans couldn't find on a map.
The real cost to America of that & other, ongoing Military misadventures is not just the wasted $ Trillions but countless, "lucky", mutilated, burned, traumatized & dismembered fellow combat Vets lingering in underfunded V.A. hospitals with whom I spend much of my time.
Meanwhile, Netanyahu & US "Sofa Soldiers" are beating the War drums ....
But:
“Quietly lobbying Congress to approve the use of force in Iraq was one of AIPAC’s successes over the past year”
