| Americans need to get used to the idea that, | | | | religion'. According to them we are Satanists |
| no matter what The United States Of America | | | | for not following the 'one true God'. Since |
| does, the rest of the world will never like | | | | all of these governments control, in large |
| us.Ours is a unique society. We are made up | | | | part, the information sources in those |
| of people from almost every other nationality | | | | countries, the majority of the people of |
| in the world. We were originaly formed by | | | | those countries believe the lies and |
| immigrants seeking religious and other | | | | propaganda that are reported about us. |
| freedoms. Our ethics and moral codes were | | | | Notice, however, how when many, not all, of |
| formed mainly from Judeo-Christian ideals, | | | | those citizens make it into this country, |
| ie: The Old And New Testaments, The Ten | | | | they learn about us and they become, not only |
| Commandments and the teachings of Jesus | | | | good citizens but, assets to our country. |
| Christ. Our form of government is mainly | | | | Some of our most contributing citizens came |
| secular but our way of living, our body of | | | | from countries that hated or fought against |
| law and our way of thinking is, for the most | | | | us at one time or another.People that can |
| part, Judeo-Christian.Ours is not an insular | | | | recieve or hear news about our country, |
| society. All Americans, with the possible | | | | listen to our loudest and most strident |
| exception of Native American Indians, are | | | | voices. Voices from people like Howard Dean, |
| decended from immigrants. These immigrants | | | | Ted Kennedy, Nancy Pelosi, Alec Baldwin, |
| have come from all over the world. These | | | | Susan Sarandon, Jane Fonda, Whoopi Goldberg, |
| immigrants brought, with them, differing | | | | Al Sharpton, etc.. Since many people, in |
| ideas, customs and ways of doing things. Many | | | | other countries, don't understand the true |
| of these ideas, customs and ways of doing | | | | meaning of freedom of speech, they think that |
| things have been melded into our way of life. | | | | these people are speaking for all of us. They |
| The foregoing has made us completely | | | | think that all of us hate President Bush, |
| different than any other country in the world | | | | they think that our country is filled with |
| and people, due to the nature of humans, | | | | prejudice and hatred, they think that crime |
| don't always like other people who are | | | | is out of controll and they think that every |
| different.Ours is a wealthy country, not only | | | | one of us carries guns and shoot each other |
| in resources and land but also in our varied | | | | for no reason, they think that we all feel |
| citizenry and our freedoms. This makes other | | | | that the war in Iraq is immoral or already |
| people jealous or envious. They don't have | | | | lost, they think that all Republicans and |
| what we have, so they say that they don't | | | | most whites hate minorities and all non |
| like us or that they hate us. Some of those | | | | Jewish or Christian religions.These people in |
| same people, however, can't wait to immigrate | | | | other countries don't understand that the |
| to this country, in order to have what we | | | | voices that they are hearing come from a very |
| have.Our people, for the most part, are | | | | loud and vocal minority of hard line left |
| loving, caring and generous. This may very | | | | wing zealots and that those voices do not |
| well be one of our biggest problems. We want | | | | speak for all of us. These people also hear |
| to give to and help others. Many people think | | | | from a few loud and vocal far right wing |
| of our giving and help as pure interference | | | | zealots, however the right wing zealots are |
| while others feel that no one would give or | | | | not celebrities so these people don't pay as |
| help without expecting something in return. | | | | much attention to them. What the people in |
| No other country in the world is guided by | | | | other countries don't understand is that the |
| Judeo-Christain principles so no other | | | | majority of people in this country are |
| country in the world thinks or believes as we | | | | moderate to slightly left or right wing and |
| do. We can't understand how they think and | | | | don't really agree with either the far left |
| they can't understand how we think.We deal | | | | or the far right. The majority of people in |
| with other countries and their people as we | | | | this country are hard working, kind, caring |
| deal with each other. We don't understand | | | | and generous people. However, moderate views |
| that, in most parts of the world, fear and | | | | are not exciting and therefore do not sell a |
| hatered are more powerful than love, greed | | | | lot of newspapers or garner a lot of |
| and envy are more powerful than kindness and | | | | television viewers, so moderate views do not |
| generosity, wanting to win is more powerful | | | | get much coverage here or in any of the free |
| than a sense of fair play and that all of the | | | | or fairly free foriegn press.Finally, most of |
| foregoing are considered by many people to be | | | | the people in the world don't like each |
| weaknesses.When France helped us during the | | | | other, many Chinese consider anyone not |
| Revolutionary War, the facts that the were | | | | Chinese to be a barbarian and less than |
| already at war with England in the Caribbean, | | | | human, Indians and Pakastanis hate each |
| that we had to pay them for their help and | | | | other, Russia and all of the old Soviet Union |
| that they did not come to our assistance | | | | members fight or feud with each other, many |
| untill they were sure that we had already won | | | | Muslims hate Jews and Christians, most Arab |
| the war, did not stop us from being grateful. | | | | countries seem to hate Isreal, Muslim sects |
| When During the Civil War and The War of 1812 | | | | hate and kill each other, the French think |
| a few French helped the Union, again for pay | | | | that everyone else is beneath them, some |
| and again after they believed that the Union | | | | Irish hate the British, in Ireland Catholics |
| had won or would win the war, we were | | | | and Protestants fight each other, many |
| grateful. We we helped the French during | | | | Chinese and Koreans hate the Japanese and |
| their Civil War and in the First and Second | | | | many Japanese hate the Chinese and the |
| World Wars, a few French were grateful but | | | | Koreans, Africans hate and kill other |
| many more hated us. After all, we had | | | | Africans, Argentines feel superior to |
| humiliated them by helping them. We had shown | | | | citizens of other South American contries, |
| them that they could not succeed with out our | | | | etc, etc.. If so many people in the world |
| assistance. When the French believed that, | | | | hate or dislike each other, how can we expect |
| Saddam Hussein did have weapons of mass | | | | them to like or love us?Isn't it about time |
| destruction and was a threat to the world, | | | | that we quite worrying about being liked and |
| they refused to help us or to join with us | | | | instead started worrying about being |
| because their profits were more important | | | | respected or even a little feared. Fear |
| than the live's of others. They believed that | | | | usually generates a certain amount of |
| they were safe because they were trading | | | | respect. I'm not suggesting that we become |
| partners with Hussein. In addition, they feel | | | | another Soviet Union or a China. I am saying |
| that we have too much power so, they oppose | | | | that perhaps we should stop worrying what the |
| us every chance they get (Don't tell me about | | | | world thinks of us and instead stand up for |
| Desert Storm, the French did and contributed | | | | ourselves. Use our financial clout, sacrifice |
| very little. The main thing they did was to | | | | a little, or a lot by not buying oil and |
| help talk us out of going into Bagdad and | | | | goods from our enemies, cancell free trade |
| ending the problem in Iraq, thereby saving | | | | agreements with our detractors, etc.. Sure |
| their trading partner Saddam Hussein.). On | | | | many things will cost us more, but aren't our |
| the other hand, they want our money from | | | | way of life and our dignity worth something. |
| tourism and trade so they invite our citizens | | | | And, if we do need to use military force, |
| to visit and to buy their goods. The French | | | | maybe we should use it without first trying |
| do not do anything unless it is in their own | | | | to get everyone else's permission. Help from |
| best intrest (By the way, I hate to admit | | | | countries like France, Germany, Russia and |
| this, but I have been told that, much to my | | | | China would cost us more than it would help |
| regret, I am part French.). I know that the | | | | us. Help from the United Nations always seems |
| foregoing paragraph makes it sound as if I am | | | | to cost us more, in money and problems, than |
| a biggot. I am not a biggot, I just do not | | | | it helps us. There are a few countries, |
| like being used, abused and lied to and I | | | | Australia, England, Israel, Taipei and a few |
| feel that that is what has been happening | | | | others that usually stick by us, however, we |
| ever since the French Indian War or as it is | | | | may not always be able to count on them. Even |
| also called, The Seven Years War, which took | | | | now many people in England are trying to have |
| place before we were even a country.Russia | | | | Tony Blair removed from office and if we |
| hates us for causing the breakup of the | | | | don't start doing a better job of helping our |
| Soviet Union. The governments of Russia, | | | | friend and ally Israel, they may, someday, |
