For All the Cindy Sheehan Haters!

Let's not even acknowledge the palaces that were being built or the millions wasted on Sadam, yeah they had nothing to do with peoples hardship. I think that bugs me the most is how the same people who rant about America are the first to forget what their own leaders have done to them.   It's all America's fault!!! CIA and MASSOUD is causing all the problems in the world!!! (had to say this because I'm tired of not fitting in on this board)   Edit: Wonder how many books she will sell while over there. Peace, Why do you feel you don't "fit" at this board OPs. If you feel that way, what keeps you coming here? There must be some reason, think about it...

Because I don't blindly support militants and I don't hate with a passion every American and Israeli in this world. I know and CAN acknowledge their are good people on all sides, we just all have idiots in charge of our countries who can't seem to pull their head out from  their back side to do what is best for the nation instead of their own private agenda.

What keeps me coming back? Whisper and all that hate he has. When he acknowledges he doesn't know as much as he claims he does about America I may move on.

Really though, I like knowing other peoples opinions of the world and places like this have people from all over the world so I think that is the main reason for me coming back. Sorry I just can't sit back and read some of the dribble that is posted sometimes without making a reply. I'm sure when the mods think I have gone to far I will be banned but that hasn't happened yet and I hope it doesn't. I also don't go around questioning peoples faith and religion, I don't even post in those forums as I know it's not my place but in the general, current events and world events forums they seem to be for everyone and so those are the three I stick too.

I am really honoured, the fact remains that I hold no hate for the Americans, just simple sheer pity for their failure to stop their admin from butchering people every day of the week.

I was galncing at a book about US and peoples' view of themselves and the rest of the world. It was a worldwide poll.  And it fact the US is not looked very kindly around the world these days is solely due to the current administration's policies. Though it could be argued that it also happens to be partially attributed to world-wide media access is greater. We see the effects of the US foreign policy. To think that we have helped three countries (Afganistan, Iraq and Lebenon) get attacked in the last 5 years is indefensible. They are of course predominantly Moslem. We are known to have supported rather rotten people such as the Shah in Iran and Saddam himself. We say we support "democracy" but do not follow it up with our actions.

At least Cindy S is speaking out. Somebody ought to. And maybe she does have some mental issues. Who really knows. Better that then sitting on one's hands with the mouth closed as thousands of people continue to die needlessly.

The US has admitted its involvement in false flag operations in Iran to cause popular hate for the democratically elected Prime Minister Dr. Mohammed Mossadegh (Operation Ajax) as a way to put in the late Shah. And Americans think the current government is beyond recent false flag operations. It is all terrorism!

Not really. Raving endlessly with incoherent left wing rhetoric is worse than doing nothing. Now any opposing view to the right wing is scene as nothing more than a left wing lunatic frindge, and serious discourse is tainted. I do not blame OPS for having his attitude, with the Cindy Sheehans and MIchael Moors of the left wing come forth make fools of themselves. Everytime I try and have a conversation with neocons, they jump off the deep end and begin verbally assaulting me as if I am on the left.

The left/right fighting just keeps people busy while those who truly hold power can remove our liberties. Cindy Sheehan is simply a good diversion from the reality of the world.
