Of course the US is hated in the Middle East. Who isn't? And where isn't the US hated? Unfortunately, the US is strictly constrained in where it can obtain energy sources from within its borders, by environmental concerns -- if Kuwait were to be part of the US, there'd probably be little oil drilling there because of protests about ruining the desert environment.
"Alternative Energy" research has been going on for decades with no real positive result. Well, except for ADM raking in some profits on ethanol subsidies. The subsidies that the US government is putting into "alternative energy" are probably diverting researchers from research that might actually produce something useful.
