I don't know, I'm not an Arab :)

Seriously, how woould you feel if you saw arab forces and bases in your own country?

Ask the Germans, British, Italians, Japanese, Koreans, etc. They all manage to deal with it without hijacking planes and sending them into buildings.

How would you feel if your gowernment was in the Jordanian backpocket?

A lot of Muslim countries used to be in the Soviets back pockets some years ago. No one was having hissy fits over that.

The question is not about who defeated them. The question is about being proud and being humiliated at the same time.

However, I see no valid reason for anyone feeling humiliated. It's in their own sick minds.
