According to a new global poll, 80% of Arabs hate the United States (“Arabs Hate US,” May 19).

Did anyone poll Americans about what we think?

After 9/11, the shoe bomber, the attempted Christmas plane and Times Square bombings, the Fort Dix attacks, the protection of Osama bin Laden by Pakistan and the recent arrest of two Muslims plotting to bomb the Empire State Building, do you think Americans are handing Arabs keys to the city?

I would also like to read about what Americans think of Jordan, Egypt, Palestinian territories and Turkey.
