America doesn't deserve to be online.

Uhh... I figured you'd know who Broken is already.. Guess post count isn't the best indication of experience around here.


Bush lied, cheated, and stole from the US.
Clinton lied, cheated, and stole from the US.
The difference? Bush took his lying, cheating, and stealing to Iraq, and brought the whole damned country along for the ride. He's a worthless piece of shit for a president, and anyone who believes he's God's gift to the US needs to stop humpi- err, I mean THUMPING the Bible and take a look at a little thing called "reality".
 
This is based on my personal experience with Arabs.Besides as you've noticed I'm not a US citizen and I don't live in the USA, so I really can't see how the presumable propaganda of your government can affect me.
 
Pandur, in the age of global telecommunications and up-to-the-minute world news, your claim of "I'm not in America so your government propaganda can't affect me" is bullshit. Total bullshit.
 
Sure, Americans are loud-assed prideful people but why is it that everyone has to focus on America? For fuck sake I live in the U.S., and I'm tired of hearing all this flaming bullshit about us. I didn't do anything, so why do you hate me because I'm an American? I mean I barely have a say in what my government does, I can't even vote yet. So stop blaming the U.S. as a whole if you want to bitch about it.

Secondly, I think Bush is a dolt.
 
Well, to sum up your question of "Why do people hate America so much?" I'm going to try to explain as quickly as possible, using global politics as much as possible.

c1915 (WWI) - Woodrow Wilson is president, progressive, with many "idealistic" programs such as the League of Nations. The world (especially the allied world at the time) views America as an important global partner, and America views the world as the same. (This explains why America would NOT interfere with English blockade of German ships during WWI, even though it went against our policy of neutrality.)

c1945 (WWII) - FDR/Truman is president, the (allied) world still views America as an important global partner, but America is beginning to see herself as the leader of the Western world.

c1970 (Vietnam War) - Backed by Lyndon B. Johnson's increase in troops in Vietnam (to 500,000 from JFK's 50,000), America now takes it upon herself to create the change she wishes to see in the world. As part of the Cold War, it was America's first venture into imperialism.

c1980s (Arms/Space Race) - Ronald Reagan created a 1 trillion dollar deficit en route to dismantling the USSR, and essentially effectively defeating Communism. It solidified America's position as the number 1 superpower in the world - no ifs ands or buts about it now. The world, perhaps, begins to get jealous.

c1991 (Desert Storm) - America now begins to assert herself as the world's number 1 superpower by no longer using domestic means to outdo other nations (such as the arms race), but is now venturing into other countries to maintain superpower status.

cGeorge Bush - Following his fathers mishandling (that is a debatable issue) of Desert Storm, Bush Jr leads what is now considered by a thoroughly offended council of nations a "warmongering"-type of nation. Europe is angry about the lack of WMD, also that Bush proceeded without UN support. The USA currently has about 50,000 soldiers that REMAIN on the Korean border, 50 someodd years after the Korean War is over. Any foriegn conflict since 1990 that you can think of, America has had a say in it somehow. Perhaps our constant eye, our goverments wish to instill democracy in EVERY nation, is what leads to this dislike of the USA.
 
you know IMO that's the whole deal in a nutshell, i had a medical for immigration purposes when i got here (usa).. eveyone has to.. it stated quite clearly that i would have a psychiatric evaluation, the only question i was asked was "why do you think 9.11 happened?" i answered, "because they were jealous of america."
that got me a green card.. :thumbsup:

and as for the UN, the 'left behind' stories claim the head of the UN is/will be the antichrist.. very scary that so many people are buying into that bullshit..
