He's probably trying to teach the world what Islam is, or should I say what he wants Islam to be because that hadeeth is restricted to Muslims.
And verily for everything that a slave loses there is a substitute, but the one who loses Allah will never find anything to replace Him.” [Related by Ibn al-Qayyim in ad-Dâ' wad-Dawâ Fasl 49]
He is probably just trying to attain great countries attention,such as Saudia Arabia for oil,which could improve USA's economy. We cannot fully judge his intention but Allah will at the Day Of Judgement insha'Allah where he will have to give a reasoning for this.
Apparently he really is so naive to believe Muslims wish for their fellow human beings what they wish for themselves?
Do you not think that all Muslims wish the best for their Muslim and non-Muslim brothers and sisters?? I always pray for Muslims and non Muslims alike.
Also, I don't know the story surrounding this hadith, whilst I have heard it many times. There is another lecture I remember from a scholar, who said that regardless of your neighbours religion or belief you should still treat them the same. That is to say in a respectful and loving manner.
Whos to say we can't wish for our (non Muslim) brothers and sisters what we wish for ourselves??

I was being a bit sarcastic, I apologize. I was responding to:
dont he realise the hadith is reffering to Muslim 'brothers'
and
We cannot fully judge his intention but Allah will at the Day Of Judgement insha'Allah where he will have to give a reasoning for this.
and
that hadeeth is restricted to Muslims
I mean, the guy tries to say something nice about Islam and yet some people here try to undermine that message. I just found it a bit weird .

The hadith is relating to brother in humainty - according to the 40 hadiths of Imam an-Nawwi thats what the footnote says.

Do you think the pious don't sin?
They merely:
Veiled themselves and didn't flaunt it
Sought forgiveness and didn't persist
Took ownership of it and don't justify it
And acted with excellence after they had erred - Ibn al-Qayyim
