Fuck the USA! Wow what a strong statement. Especially coming from an American citizen.

No personally I don't feel that. It's not a personal statement of mine. I am one of the "strongest" supporters of this country. Despite the fact I have been jailed under false pretenses. Despite the fact I know "MANY" foreigners (with good intentions) mis-treated here. I sure as hell am not against the USA, but I sure as hell am against some of what the government does.

Listen, I would "die" for this country in a second. I don't say that in "jest", I mean it! The "United States" (at one time) was looked at like the "savior" of the world. We were actually. Lately, we are just "arrogant" assholes to the rest of the world. People in other countries don't look at us like "we are cool". They feel we are more the "cause" of problems, then the help. In many senses, I feel that is correct. Most I don't.

I know American people. In general, I feel "world wise" we do want the best. For us, and the world. Our policy has changed however. We won't go to a "hurting country" to help (think about Dafur), but we got no problem invading Iraq. We became the "agressors", not the helpers. In my opinion, one of the "dumbest" mistakes this country ever made (Thank you Bush). What we REALLY need to do "AS A COUNTRY" is show how "GOOD" we can be. Not invade, help where we know it's needed. Even our own people would be a good start. What the world needs to see "FIRST"!! is America is for helping. Not hurting. Hell to me, spending a few bucks to help some "piss ant" country isn't a big deal. Most of these little ones can be taken care of (helped) quick. Iran, Iraq, North Korea.. different deals. Bush choose the "easy one" of those to fuck with, but made far more problems then we can deal with. Don't underestimate "Sand Niggers". Doesn't matter what "Arab" country we mess with.. we mess with them all. Like Prison really... nobody in Prison likes eachother really. But if you spit on an Arab... every other Arab will back them. Even those they hated eachother first,,, lol. All Bush did, was make the entire Arab world against us.

If the USA took the policy (again) to help other countries. Not always for our "financial good", but just to be "GOOD". I feel it would be great overall for us all. I feel it would gather world support.. and get us "politically" aligned with many. In other words, being "GOOD", just may give us all we wanted in the first place.

The rest of the world is saying now...
FUCK THE USA!
I think we can change that. But we gotta move from "agression" to helpers..
