sorry, but this
IS patriotic bullshit, direct from
your president's speech writers. The US is a target because
of their overbearing foreign policy and disregard for the
rest of the world. Pull out of the Kyoto treaty. Supply
guns to rebels in various countries to maintain civil wars
that are beneficial to the USA. Force your culture on
everyone, telling them that their own culture is worthless.
Hoard and waste 90% of the world's resources, leaving
millions to starve. Use bombs when your diplomacy fails.
Preach how you are the premiere symbol for everything. And
you wonder why there is anti-USA sentiment?
chalst: Hear hear!
chakie: If we didn't have the USA this
would never have happened. What's your point?
fxn: Agreed. The terrorists didn't have
to land, or do anything more complex than throttle down(the
big level between the pilot's seats) and steer using the
yoke(the big steering-wheel type thing). A monkey could do it.
A
reply to a friend who wanted retribution. Yes, we have
idiots in Canada too.
