Are we morons to let our present governments represent us and create so much controversy, hate and mistrust?

Question

The reason so many people hate Americans is the governments position on many things, who they make friends with and who they say are enemies. Do you even know someone from Iran or Afghanistan and yet many common people there shout Death to America! I don't know anyone there so how can they hate me?

Answer 1

Don't care what the rest of the world thinks... they are only a bunch of losers anyway. As are you. And, by the way, get some of news from somewhere other than the mainstream media... they hate America more than the rest of the world put together.

Answer 2

yes, it has gone too far.
everyone is blaming the wrong people for the wrong reasons.
your friends' son would still be alive if it wasn't for that clownmonkey Bush. it was Bush's decision to send troops into Iraq and soon enough, more young son's of America will die there because they are fighting a war that cannot be won by conventional weapons.
you are fighting an enemy who does not fight fair and does not care about innocent children. they will kill all who get in their way.

Bush is going to call upon more young men in America to fight for this war that is truely meaningless. Why do I say that?
because it will help nobody but his own buddies. All the contracts to rebuild Iraq will go to his golfing buddies and friends of **** Cheney.

All your friend's mother will get for her son's death is a letter from Donald Rumsfeld saying how great her son was and it won't even be signed by him..it's a copy of his signature!!!

what an insult!

seriously, Bush is the problem.
those protesters are wrong for slamming the military..the military are just doing their job.
Bush is the problem because he's telling the military to go fight for something that doesn't make any sense whatsoever.
and what's worse is what's still to come.
Bush will draft more young men to fight in Iran in the next month or so when that war will begin.

Answer 3

One good way to find out how much we REALLY are "hated"....? The next disaster in the world, we send "NOT ONE DIME" of assistance. If that doesn't bring up the ire of the world, then try this, (and this won't happen either..) Don't travel to ANY foreign country, or buy any foreign products. Period. You will hear no louder scream of "Where are the Americans? We need you! We really do love you! Come back!!!"
Finally, (another thing that won't happen!) lock the borders, absolutely no immigration, legal or otherwise.
If everybody "hates" us, they should be more than thrilled not to be allowed into this country! They should be more than thrilled to not have us visit their country, or buy their product. And they should be pleased beyond belief that when they have a national disaster, they don't have to put up with our people, money, services, equipment, oh, the burden that must be for them!!!
Trust me, they don't "hate" us, they, the minority, may publicly say they do, but, they don't, in fact the envy us. They might not care for all the policies of our administration, but we don't care for all of them as well. And collectively, as a country, we never have, and never will.
So what the hell do we care what they think of us???

Answer 4

No way a civil warfare. Bush has been a loser so some distance as a president is going....... it fairly is now the final consensus. in spite of the undeniable fact that it would want to take some distance extra for human beings the following contained in the U.S. to initiate affirming warfare on the country. a minimum of it really is what i trust. i don't have a crystal-ball and may want to't see into the minds of everybody else, yet i imagine it would want to take a lot more effective than some idiots operating the U.S. for some words to reason that to ensue. What ever harm they have finished can in basic terms as fairly be undone even as the bozo's are lengthy previous. Revolution or civil warfare in the present day over those topics might want to spoil each and every thing sturdy about our lifestyle. i'd not, and that i do not imagine that almost all of human beings contained in the U.S. might want to bypass for such action. We on occasion ought to submit with little junior Hitlers and their little Gestapo approaches. Now if it got here to a defense force take over or dictatorship being placed into position...... then the answer is certain. i might want to be prepared to kick some a**. yet not when we've a gadget in position to envision that style of difficulty from transforming into an difficulty. relax....... take a breather. Curious George and organization are on their way out. staying power is a distinctive feature.

Answer 5

Unlike you, who has an infinite amount of information at your fingertips to form your own opinion, all those people who 'hate' America get their ideas from only one source. Their government. And, unlike you, they cannot question the reasoning behind it.
Of course, exporting hollywood movies filled with sex and violence doesn't help. They believe that is how all Americans live daily.

Answer 6

So what is the alternative? Anarchy? Dictatorship, Communism, matriarchs, kings, empires, serfdoms, and plutocracy or aristocracy?

Answer 7

The government is supposed to be run by the people. Our representatives are supposed to work for us. I don't care what party it is.
