The United States and the Arab World

What can the United States do currently to improve our relationship with the Arab World? Rather than thinking of the Arab world as a "region", we should recognize it comprises different countries, often with divergent cultural and political values. We need to have strong country teams to interact successfully with specific countries. Using television and radio to deal with an entire region is ineffective. A country-by-country approach based on the values of the people there is absolutely critical.
