Remember, our balance of trade with these nations despite the oil sales have historically been in the black. Bush of course has ruined all that.
Why can't some of you see that you are being brainwashed?
Saudi Arabia and Egypt have always had a simmering dislike of all things American, but we offer them more aid under this wicked administration.

Iran isn't an enemy yet, but it will be before this administration is turned out of office.
Neither Iran nor Iraq has attacked us, or has any plans to attack us. We're the ones who launched an unprovoked war on Iraq, and are likely to do the same against Iran before much longer.
If you ever take the time to compare US news media with its counterparts abroad, you'll find just how shockingly bad the spin is here in the US. And I'm not just referring to Fox News.

did you forget the Iranian hostage crisis years ago ?
The Iran hostage crisis was a 444-day period (about 14 months), during which student proxies of the new Iranian regime held hostage 66 diplomats and citizens of the United States inside the U.S. embassy in Tehran. The standoff lasted from November 4, 1979 until January 20, 1981. During the crisis, some hostages were released, but 52 were held until the end. The United States launched a rescue operation, Operation Eagle Claw, which failed and caused the deaths of eight servicemen. Historians consider the crisis to have been a primary reason for United States President Jimmy Carter's loss in his re-election bid for the presidency in 1980. The crisis also punctuated the first Islamic revolution of modern times.

This Administration is not wicked. But the middle east has always had a simmering dislike of all things American. I don't have a problem with the Iranian people, I actually feel sorry for them. They have a nut job for a leader.

Far from being brainwashed. Where did you do your research? If you remember Iraq voted for the first time in a matter of years. Are you trying to take U.S. Military personnel deaths in vain? If that's the case then you disagree with the Revolutionary War. Your typical left wing liberal propaganda!

Mmmeh. I stick to British remote places coverage to 3 degree, and that i watch BBC various nights a weel. I delight in a honest quantity of British television entertainment, so I even have some clues, yet to be trustworthy, i'm no longer that into it. For the checklist, i do no longer pay dissimilar interest to "Southern" custom in the U. S., or "New England" custom, the two.

Like, are you one of those "for-real" terrorist that is trying to brain wash Americans? You have a lot of activity here on Yahoo. Is this your job to turn Americans against our government?
Surely you know that the Iranians have been against Western influence since the 1980s. Your current president in Iran was one of the students who held our diplomats.
Please, go elsewhere with your propaganda? Its not wanted here.

It's the governments/leadership of the countries that cause the trouble. We the people of the US have no say over who/what/when/why we enter a war, nor when we end it. We are just forced to accept the consequences of our presidents actions.
I wish there was somehow that I could become independent of any one country and call me self "Human" and as long as I have a clean criminal record and am able to provide for myself, I see nothing wrong with that.

Lil! see how many people have answered, assuming of course, or acting loonies again, how the Iran would love to kill them and convert them to Islam. How far fetched their minds have become. Such toddler like mentality doesn't wash with us non-Americans and it only certifies our right to call you Americans names. Because you are worth it!
