Why is it, that Australians (by that I mean the general population, not their gov't) hold so much anger towards Americans (many of this coming in forms of inappropriate racism) and blame the American population for voting in a government that supports a ridiculous war in Iraq, yet completely ignore the fact that the Howard government is also committed to this 'war on terror' (and yes I am aware there are only 1500 Australian troops in Iraq). Too often, I hear complaints of 'stupid Americans' who are fighting this war! Why don't Australians admit that they too, support and voted for a government that supports this war and quit passing the blame to an all too easy target. Although I understand this war would not be fought without US troops and money, the war on terror is still supported by others whether by troops or by ideologies.... By the way, I am not an American.....just sick of the bad rap they are getting here in Australia!
