For those of us who cannot speak or understand Arabic, MEMRI TV provides an invaluable service. MEMRI records Arabic television then provides English translation across the bottom of the screen. Here are some examples of the hate-filled stuff being seen in the Arab world.

The examples you posted all come from state-sponsored media outlets in regions with overtly anti-Semitic and anti-American policies - Hamas, the Palestinian Authority, and Iran. There are numerous other media outlets, both government owned and private, which offer something closer to Western standards of journalism.
*Note, since I seem to be mis-read as a bleeding-heart liberal sometimes: I agree that the clips you posted are representative of the opinions of many in the Middle East. I merely offer my counter-post in the name of balance.
