Maybe he 'hates our freedoms.'
If the intention of the United States (and its allies) is to bring freedom to the middle-east, then they should first topple the monarchy in Saudi Arabia. The Saudis are not only oppressing their own citizens, but they are also funding terrorism all over the world including Syria and other middle-eastern nations.
The suggestion that the United States give two fucks about 'freedom', 'peace', and 'democracy' in the Middle East, or in almost any other part of the world is a sick joke to anyone who is paying even a little bit of attention. Unless, of course, they only pay attention to certified kosher U.S. media outlets.
This is not to say that any other major power is any better. The Soviet Union made the U.S. look like angels back in the cold war days, and it's probably one of the main reasons we won the cold war. Also, we probably were slightly better back in those days than we are now. Not a lot however.
As an American it really is unfortunate to have to say this stuff, but I'm not going to close my eyes to the reality of the situation. The U.S. foreign policy does seem to me to be about as close to pure evil as one can get. Even in Vietnam where we sent psychos over to rape and murder, we also sent decent people who tried to limit the damage. The My Lai massacre was a good case-in-point. Now we just flood an area with pure psychos like ISIS. Thanks Obama (Nobel peace prize winner) and Hillary Clinton.
