In the Middle East, only Israel can claim to be a real democracy with real private industry. As such, in these horrible nations, the government controls everything and the people know no different. Therefore they think that when an American does something like publish a video, it must have been made by the US Government as that's how things work over there.(heard this in an interview this week)
Also, if you watch Middle Eastern tv(the supposed friendly ones too), which is completely controlled by the theocratic fascists and/or dictators; America, Israel and to a lesser extent, Britain, are portayed as the villians whenever ANYTHING goes wrong. Seriously, everything is blamed on these 3 nations. It's a great way to brush away any self made problems at home by directing the blame towards the easy targets; us kafirs.
