Isn't that strange? Consider how the US always has helped the Arab, Mexican, and Vietnamese people... To be other than an expression of prejudice, a statement that Arabs, Mexicans and Vietnamese think differently from Americans would have to say what they think differently about and which groups among them think differently. Per Abraham's reply is just wishful thinking; he supposes they think like American leftists, or at least that their difference in thinking is primarily determined by their interactions with America. A rather America-centered point of view.
