I'm an American from the US and I believe I've mentioned that before. My family has been here for generations and I'm from Irish decent. I'm as American as any of you and how dare you say I'm anti-American! That is far from the truth! I love my country more than anything in the world. I was posting the reason why THOSE people hate us. They obviously see things differently than we do, and may not understand our government's purposes. I don't think they hate us because of who we are. They just understand things our government does in the negative direction. Understand my posts before speaking. I was born American and will die American. Some of the troops fighting are my cousins you know. You should really know what you are talking about before you speak. Not all Americans support this war. In fact, many many don't.

Does the name Hitler ring a bell? I know people who hate others because of the color of their skin or their religion or where they were born. As for the U.S. having bases in other countries; lots of those countries asked us to be there to 'protect' them from invasion of by other countries.

How can you compare millions and millions of civilians to Hitler? They have something instilled in their minds that causes them to hate us. They don't understand us, and we don't understand them. Its as simple as that. They view us as terrorists, we view them as terrorists. We are both wrong and need to understand each other. The mass population of the US are wonderful people, and I'm sure its the same in other parts of the world. We just haven't been their and met those people ourselves. The media says they hate us, but how do we know how many of them really do? I think we all need to visit that part of the world to see before we make our judgements. I really hope I can go and see those people and how they really think sometime in my life.

Sandra, I'm laughing, I was thinking the same thing, I wondered why people did not put where they were from too. LOL Oh I'm sure we will hear a good reason, lol.

3. We are always concerned about our safety and how we feel and how our people feel, but we care little about the millions of people around the world that have been suffering for centuries, and many of them, because of us or because of nations we "harbor." (me included. I don't realize what they go through until it happens to us at home)


Do you watch the news or read newspapers? Have you heard what the Iraqi people have been going through, have you heard how many of our Brits and Americans have got killed trying to save these people? Have you read about the humanitarian efforts by our men and women in the service? Have you read they are giving the Iraqi's food when their own leader turned off their water and they are out of food? Where have you been?

You missed my point. You said you didn't think people would hate us because of who we are. Hitler hated people because they were Jewish (aka who they were). I wasn't compairing millions of people to Hitler. I was pointing out to you people do hate others because of who they are!

So please enlighten me on what you call people who fly planes into buildings and kill thousands of people because of who they are and what they represent because these people are the evil American infidels. These people aren't terrorists?

If you'd understand my post, I said that's how THEY see things. Even if we are there to save them, they "think" we are there to invade their land. Get the point?

[tatsxxx11]

I'll understand your position when you begin to write coherently. And I think you really need to hit the history books....momoffuzzyfaces was NOT comparing civilians to Hitler!

NOT civilians=Hitler
Saddam=Hitler

And just wondering, where in the U.S. are you from???

You people are great at twisting words and making up false statements that have nothing to do with what I said.

OF COURSE those !@#$%^&'s are terrorists! I was talking about the mass civilians in both parts of the world! Not the terrorists.

Never mind, you are making so little sense I'm not going to bother.

I was watching MSNBC and their journalist
is in Pakistan, reporting about the anti-war
demonstrations/riots. It has gotten to the point where
American's are being told they should leave
the country for their safety.
The journalist said that some news reports out
of Pakistan is spuring up so much anti-american sentiments/heated demonstrations. (putting his words lightly)
The journalist said one news account went as far
as to print that the US had dropped the automic
bomb on Iraq. When the journalist question the
source of the news report, asking where they got their information. The journalist was told,
"We have our sources"

(Now I realize this is far fetch, but you have
people who read and believe it)

Too bad their 'sources' are apparently brainless. If we dropped an atomic bomb on Iraq, the whole world would know it ... there would be little left ... just a big old hole where Iraq used to be ... no buildings, no animals, no people, no reporters.

[mugsy]

Not to mention that there would be world repercussions almost immediately.

[mugsy]

Ahhhh paranoia reigns supreme. For what reason would we want to bomb Pakistan? My only thought would be if bin Laden is being given refuge by somone in Pakistan that we would go in and get rid of him, but not the entire country. Oh yeah, I forgot that the American media lies about everything...how silly of me.

What are you guys talking about??? I live IN Pakistan and I watch the news and read our papers here EVERYDAY. If there any report like that, I would have knew before any of you. Your msnbc is probably the one that is lying.

No matter how much we helped you, no matter how good "friends" we were, you are going to find some reason to bomb us some day. We know that. We know that well. You are not true friends. Just using us and disposing us. Only our stupid president doesn't know that.

Anyway, bye bye. I'm off to bedtime.

golly, you shouldn't go to sleep with so irritated, not good for your digestion and your skin.

dropping a nuke anywhere would not be beneficial to anyone.

there used to be a bumper sticker here in the "lying" US that said.

One nuclear bomb can ruin your whole day.


dropping one halfway thru the workweek is kinda counter productive. I get paid on Friday and want to relax this weekend.

If you like you can come over to the US and talk about 'our'
stupid president......everyone else is.


sweet dreams.
