9/11 didn't shame America into seeing the Middle East's point of view, it not only solidified nationalism and prejudice but created prejudices that Americans didn't really feel yet since they didn't see Muslims as a "clear and present danger" yet. The thing that started any kind of change in perception was the lack of any subsequent threat from Islamists at home and seeing American soldiers coming home in body bags. And even that hasn't really engendered sympathy for the Middle East, just a weariness for continued conflict. The vast majority still don't give a **** what happens to Muslims, we're just tired of neverending war.
