Why Do Liberals Think The U.S. Is A Terrorist Nation?

Question

One liberal wrote: "FACT: USA IS A TERRORIST NATION
That dropped atomic weapons on civilian population centers and killed hundreds of thousands of people.

Any American that attempts to hold the morale high ground is a joke. ", written by ny_soupnazi ( http://profiles.yahoo.com/ny_soupnazi/ )

Answer 1

Liberals live in a strange fantasy world where no one ever wishes anyone wrong and all we have to do is from committees and talk and all problems will magically go away. To them, anyone who takes any kind of action is automatically a terrorist themselves. If we had left it to liberals, we would be wearing Nazi uniforms and speaking German right now.

Answer 2

Liberals believe that the U.S. is the source of the world's problems, not a source of solutions.

No matter how hard the U.S. tries to be kind, generous, and helpful, we can never do enough in the eyes of the Liberal who seems to suffer some heightened sense of guilt, hence the often heard term "Liberal guilt".

In the eyes of the Liberal, the U.S. can't do anything right. If we intervene in a country to save them from a bunch of tyrannical religious zealots who beat women for accidentally showing an exposed ankle, we are somehow at fault for something, but if we don't intervene in a full blown civil war like Darfur, the Liberal blames the U.S. for that too.

The Liberal mindset reminds me of an old MAD Magazine cartoon. A guy is walking down the street, sees an elderly man dressed in a suit and tie walking to work. He bitterly remarks, "Why can't the older generation just move aside and let the younger people have more opportunities?"

A minute later he passes by a retirement home, and sees a group of elderly people rocking on the front porch. This time he says, "Look how useless old people are. They just sit there, being a burden on society."

See? This is exactly the Liberal mind. No matter what the U.S. does or refrains from doing, we are at fault. We should have done more, or less. We should have done something quicker, or waited and proceeded with more caution. We should have intervened, or kept our nose out of their business.

Liberals don't understand the difference between legitimate and illegitimate governments. We LIBERATED Afghanistan and Iraq from tyranny, and that is a noble cause. However, Liberals never use the word, "liberated". We "invaded".

Typical Lib mentality.

Answer 3

Beirut, Lebanon, Friday, March 8, 1985, an Islamic Sabbath -- In Bir El-Abed, an impoverished, crowded Shiite quarter in the southern reaches of the Lebanese capital, Muhammad Husain Fadlallah stops on the street to speak to an elderly woman; and so, the revered 51 year-old cleric, delayed momentarily, will not be home at the usual time when a car bomb explodes at his apartment doorstep with a force felt miles away in the Chouf Mountains and well out in the Mediterranean.



"Even by local standards," reported the New York Times from car-bomb and shell-shocked Beirut, the explosion "was massive." Eighty-one people were killed -- men, women, and children -- and more than two hundred wounded. Fadlallah, the target of the attack, was unhurt. The next day, a notice hung over the devastated area where grief-stricken families were still digging the bodies of loved ones out of the rubble. It read: "Made in the USA."



The sign was more apt than even its furious makers knew. The terrorist strike on Bir El-Abed was a classic product of American covert policy. Behind the bombing lay a convoluted secret history and, beyond that, a longer legacy of power wantonly uninformed by "intelligence."



Agreeing, as usual, with the proposals of CIA Director William Casey, President Ronald Reagan sanctioned the Bir attack to avenge a devastating truck-bombing of the U.S. Marine barracks at the Beirut Airport in October 1983 -- itself a bloody reprisal for earlier American acts of intervention and diplomatic betrayal in Lebanon's civil war that had cost hundreds of Lebanese and Palestinian lives. The barracks attack slaughtered 241 Marines, part of an international peacekeeping force sent to Lebanon in the wake of the 1982 Israeli invasion of the country.

Answer 4

Just because one liberal wrote it doesn't mean that all liberals think it. Unlike right wingers liberals don't all sing from the same song sheet. The US isn't a terrorist nation. I don't think the US is a squeeky clean and pure as most right wingers believe but terrorist no. But hey, I think that gay people should have the same rights as everyone else so what do I know?

Answer 5

The USA is NOT a terrorist nation. We just happen to have a terrorist in federal office. Bush sympathizes with other terrorist groups while "pretending" to be fighting terrorists. He and his "cronies" greed is beyond any I have ever seen in my 50 years of life. He just makes the USA look very bad. AND, so do people like you you who like to spread "conservative", (and I use that term very loosely), propaganda. It's what the Bush type do. Good day!

Answer 6

For starters: Thanks to President George W Bush, the US performed a pre-emptive strike on Iraq. He proclaimed that they had "weapons of mass distruction." They did not Iraq had nothing to do with 9/11.

Now, that country has been totally distroyed, hundreds of thousands of its people killed by American bombs, and they have no water. Their utilities have been shut off by all of the bombs. It is "Terrorism" of the worst sort.

Answer 7

They are wraught with what is called 'White Guilt', that America and it's predominantly white government are evil, greedy, capitalist, warmongering pigs that destroy 3rd world nations to gain a profit! It's really sad that they think this way. I don't understand how one can hate and overlook all the greatness of this country. How we have so many freedoms and liberties, how everyone has an equal opportunity to become successful, how we hold the individual in higher regard than the common good of the group, how we have freedom of speech, religion and expression, and how we give billions of dollars every year in foreign aid for humanitarian causes that help impoverished nations. The left wingers have a great PR machine that slams America and make us look like the bad guys. Unfortunately, a lot of stupid people buy into this left wing propaganda garbage.

Answer 8

I'm a conservative liberal independent who loves this country. I fear my government. I thank God that I was lucky enough to be born here in the USA and not born in Iraq, Vietnam, Afghanistan, or anywhere else where we decided to stick our nose into business where it didn't belong. Why do you conservatives undermine anyone who doesn't believe as you do?

Answer 9

You are generalizing, which shows that you are ignorant. There have been liberals who have stated that, like Rosie. They do not represent the majority. They are a disgrace. There are also idiot conservatives who say idiotic things (ex. the above question), but anyone with half a brain can differentiate between the extreme and the norm. Unfortunately, this excludes you. Leave the thinking to the grown-ups and you can go play with a ball.
