"They" is metaphorical, and is meant to apply to all of the people who
support the sentiments quoted by me and expressed by Abul Abbas.
Presumably, there are at least two such people (including the
honorable Mr. Abbas).

I do not believe that all Arabs hate the US, nor do I believe that all
Arabs hate Israel.  Unfortunately, the Arabs in the Middle East that
don't at least appear to hate Israel often end up getting killed by
those who do.  I could tell you how many Arabs have been killed by
Arabs for "collaborating", and I will if you remind me when I'm at
work (all of my sources are at work, not at home, and that number is
in one of my sources).

Take a look at the number of Israelis who have been killed by other
Israelis for talking about peaceful solutions to the West Bank crisis.
For that matter, compare the number of Israelis publicly talking peace
to the number of Arabs doing so.
