You'd be wrong there.* The Muslim world doesn't like our lax sexual morals, but as long as we stay on our side of the pond it's not something they'll get that worked up about. What angers them are legitimate moral grievances: exploitative "inherited from kings and politicians" capitalism, and political undermining of their states.
In no way am I condoning their actions - but it is a desire for freedom, not a hatred of it, which drives them.
I'm currently involved in editing a book on the matter, www.tremblethedevil.com if you're interested.

He's an interenet-friend of mine, used to work for the CIA doing information-analysis. My agent's met him in person, and given the body of work he's presented I have no reason to suspect him of dishonesty.
Particularly with that fact - his site is full of brilliant analysis on contemporary event, I don't see him having the need to make up one story when the rest is factually based.
