I can't believe you mean what you write! America's ego-trip and its terrorism is one of the worst on the planet. You make everyone else feel un-safe, and wonder why people don't like you. American politics to me is full of disgusting intrigue. Has been so for many decades. Whenever there is a terrorist act, one can be pretty sure your CIA is involved in some way or the other, because war and terror pays, and the US is involved in this type type income big way.

President Obama is a brilliant man who has a heart. I'm not so cynical as to think that no one really wants to do the right thing. There are politicians who are sincere. Bernie Sanders, Russ Feingold, Barbara Boxer and a host of others have proven that they really want to see all Americans succeed. Obama has only been President for a little over 2 months. The problems he has to tackle were decades in the making. He needs our support. Give him a chance before you pass judgment.

Do you really think the USA is more secure? All they have done since 9/11 is impose more rules that control society. I can give MANY examples such as the Patriot Act,Bush Doctrine (gives President ability to declare Marshall law and go to war without congress, basically dictator). Obama is the biggest puppet of off time. He is making it mandatory that all people 16-25 MUST do 3 months of Civilian Core (gotta keep an eye out for terrorists). So there are also gonna be 3,000,000 civil spies to go along with mandatory bill tests, thumb prints, and mass vaccines. Remember how he said he would pull troops out right away? Now he said he will be gradually starting in 23 months. The USA is a joke. I am so happy I am not American nor do I live there. I could go on and on. Not too mention he said no Wall Street insiders in his advisor group and promised change. Yet he hired 33 former Clinton advisors and the rest were all members af the Trilateral Commission and Bilderberg Group.

How can you expect people to value your opinion when your statements are illiterate and ungrammatical? Learn to speak this country's language before you attack its policies.

I have to agree with you,I believe Mr. Bush was just trying to get even with the attempted assassinate on his father.After all not one person that attacked those towers was from Iraq

I agree with you. In fact, the iraq war was illegal, and the neo-cons should pay for the damage they did. Bush & Co. should never get away with it. If one lets them free, there is no saying what future atrocities US politicians will be up to. And the world will continue to be an un-safe place for all countries who don't support US politics.

EVERY WAR this century was based on lies! In WW1 (which Germany did not start BTW) the Germans posted a huge ad in the NEW YORK TIMES saying that if any ship was caught in those waters flying a British or Ally of British they would be considered hostile and sunk. The Americans then sent the Lusitania out to Ireland in those exact same waters with very little protecting in way of escorts. WW2 there were 3-4 mini Japanesse submarines sunk just off thge coast of Hawaii and actually one was beached. this all 1.5hr -45 min before the attack at Pearl Harbor. The whole plan for attack was to take out the only 3-4 aircraft carriers that USA had in the Pacific. BUT THEY MAGICALLY WERE ON PATROL ALL AT ONCE. Which never happens. The Japanesse were working East thru the Islands and it was obvious Hawaii was coming up. That and the fact that the Americans could not find one of the Carriers and thought it was no big deal. Vietnam. The Gulf of Tonkin incident never happened. the US government now admits to that. It was all drummed up to get support for war. Now the US trades with Vietnam and are friendly. Desert Storm. The USA gave Saddam Hussein the chemical weapons in 1984 he used to gas the Kurds. he was a valuable ally when the USA had problems with Iran. They also gave him the go ahead to invade Kuwait in first place. Iraqi Freedom. LOL. I think we all know that one. AFtganistan ,Granada, Panama, War on Terror was all brought about by the USA own horrible foreign policy. I still get a kick out of Americans that think they are being attacked by Muslims because they are free. no they attack America because you have been meddling in their business for last 50 years.

I agree the War in Iraq is a mess and that there are many reasons to dislike or distrust America.I think that all through history, there is not one civilization that hasn't comitted war against others for profit.Your lands have more flints for making fire than our lands, come on! Human nature hasn't changed and won't until we give up the ideas surrounding profit for nothing or using others to get killed for easy gain. What country has never been guilty of this? America is the new kid on the block(200+ years old) with all the big guns.I don't like it either but where do we really start? Is any other super power or government innocent in this game of power grab? Do any of you really think that some of your leaders are not secretly in the good old boys club?I am teacher that wants his students to become independent thinkers, not a bunch of followers that believe everything in the media is gospel truth. You change the world by improving education for all.Then the students can straighten out the messes that all of our leaders today have created when they become the leaders of tomorrow.A mirror can be useful when pointing fingers at others.
