Hi Amazing
Americans, like me, do this in defense of what seems like attacks on our nation.
And rightly so. This WAS an attack, and so is the Anthrax stuff. I don't deny that at all, and I do absolutely NOT say that the US should not answer to an attack like this.
seven006 as usual, doesn't understand nothing about what I said. I don't know if he simply wants to misunderstand me, or if he really is that stupid, and I really don't care either. But facts are I feel things are getting better after September 11. Reasons?
I said: "You know, when I hear some people speaking about all the good the US have done around the world, how the US helped this and that government - it reminds me of the Muslims screaming in the streets on Islamabad!"
Obviously some dimwit "understood" this to mean something I never intended. The reason people show all the hatred in "Islamabad" is ignorance, among other things - let's forget US policy just for a while. They have been TOLD how the US really is like, and they HATE the US as a result. Their religious and political leaders has TOLD them the truth, and radio and TV contains the sitting regimes official views - and that's that.
When I say the US reactions reminds me of this, it's because many Americans are just as ignorant to what happens other places in the world. Since I went online, I regurarly get mails telling me how wonderful the US is, and how they "helped out" a lot of places.
Yes, the US has helped out, but they have also been following their own agenda. The US has not only supported drug-barons, they've helped them. The CIA has organized drug smuggling big scale, both inside Asia and to the US. The US has done political assassinations all over the world, supported "revolutions", and supported people like Bin Laden. In fact, it was CIA who trained Bin Laden, and gave him his weapons!
CIA trained Saddam Hussein, the Brittish trained Idi Amin. The story goes on and on, and it's always what the "super-powers" have done TO TAKE CARE OF THEIR OWN INTERESTS!
Because the facts are the western countries never cared much about the so called 3. world, development countries. WE give aid, Norway too, and we're supposed to be of the best in the class. But facts are 99% of such development programs under direction of the UN has been to disadvantage of the country they were supposed to help!
Much of this help is more designed to help the giver-countrys own industry, and the pay-back is cheep raw materials - for a fraction of the price. We - included Norway - could buy goods from these countries, buy agricultural goods, as one example. But we don't. We have import restrictions, because we want to keep our own subsidized shit running.
There is a lot of politics and mecanisms running this show - and I'm not sure the average American knows so much more about what happens and have been happening in Kashmir, Bangladesh, Palestine, Afghanistan and other places than the people rallying the streets protesting against the US know about the general American and the US.
And, seven006, keep on the way you started. You are an example of why some people think Americans are some arrogant assholes. Some feel they should make planes fall out of the sky and send them Anthrax in envelopes. I just laugh at people like you. So arrogant, and so ignorant to the world around you.
How many percent in the world do you think agree with me - and then with you?
I never said the US should not defend itself, and I added a support link for the US on the Watchtower Observer as soon as these were available. Being ignorant to word affairs has nothing to do with intelligence - but what information you get.
In your case - THAT has something to do with intelligence.
