Living in Asia ...


Living in Asia, I am constantly amazed by American attitudes. They constantly talk only to one another, as if 'foreigners' do not exist. Some human rights advocates may mention us as collateral damage to prove a political point. The Americans kill 15,000 Iraqis per month, while Saddam rarely topped 1,500 for example.
The consensus among Iraqis is the Americans should clear out of Asia as quickly as possible. Nobody here wants to suffer radioactive fall out from a preemptive nuclear strike against Iran. The Iraqis are like everyone else who wants to control his oil production.
Aside from the parent Global Voices itself, Voices without Votes gives westerners a first look at the Asian culture and outlook.
I prefer reading about people to bombing them.
