Why The World Hates America
« on: July 22, 2004, 01:24:44 AM »
From what I have read on the BB's magazines and anything else, here is what I came up with.
- Britain seems to be neuteral
- France hates the US because we did not enter WW1 until Russia left. And when we did enter, we had a sense of we will end the war fast. Then in WW2 we beat them to Hitler's hideout up on the mountain.
- Eastern Europe (Former soviet block) because we are playing cops and trying to keep the peace, trying to keep warlords down (Bornio).
- Russia is mostly neuteral, but there is still some cold war propoganda left in a few people.
- Middle East/Africa (countries with Muslim majority) because the UN created Isreal, then defended it when it was invaded.
- Africa; Again we played cop and tried to keep the peace, refuse to use diamonds that warlords force people to mine for (treated like slaves)
- Asia; We tried to stop the spread of Communism, most of Asia is Communist.
- Canada; not quite sure.... but I know a friend that moved to canada, use to talk to her on MSN and her and all of her friends in Canada would try comparing the US with Canada, trying to compete with how Canada was better. I guess this started with a hockey game and Canada has been competative with the US ever since?
- Cuba; playing police, against the Dictatorship

Personally I dont care what other contries think, I think we are going in the right direction. I may not support EVERY decision, but Ill support my country. I am proud to be an American.

While Im at it I might as well say I think going after saddam in Iraq was a step in the right direction. I think it will help ease tentions in that part of the world and help lead to more Democracies in the middle east.

Most of those are quite wrong.

Because half a dozen eskimos and a few tired old draft dogger hippies dont make much noise in the world?

You can have your opinions, but they are wrong factually.

For example most of asia is defintely not communist. Even going strictly by China's huge population its still not half while NK and Vietnam and Laos dont add very much - maybe another 100 million or so. Also Vietnam doesnt seem to hate the USA any more.

Caligula once said: Let them Hate so long as they fear.

Too bad he was talking about the Roman Empire.
