Show moreWhile tension is growing in the Middle East towards the United States due to American foreign policies, hate and anger is rising, and Middle Easterners feel threatened by the United States. It is with such a context in mind that the animosity of consumers in the Middle East is examined and whether that animosity affects the willingness to buy.

In addition, the goal is to go a step further and to investigate whether animosity is expressed across different religious groups.
