The fact is that you DO demonize anyone who does not share the same opinions as you. I mean i have sat through some pretty vile insults to my religion, ethnicity and background.
Let's look at what i said though. My basic contention is that American foreign policy has made the US more unpopular, more unsafe for it's citizens and the US less relevant in international politics.
The US unilateralism in Iraq showed the world that it doesn't matter what anybody else thinks, nor is the evidence at all important. The US does at it pleases with complete disregard for world opinion. Not many like that.
US support for some dictators while it condemns others, smacks of hypocrisy. Not many like that.
Us denial of nuclear technology to Iraq while it keeps stockpiling weapons is also hypocritical.
The Iraq invasion.
Unconditional support for Israel.
Above things are something the US gov has been doing which has created MORE TERRORISTS in the world than any dictatorial regime in the world could do.
Antipathy to the US is not propaganda.. It's a direct result of US actions. It really helps AQ recruit LOTS of people.
The US is it's own worst enemy in the struggle for world peace. That is what i have been saying. It doesn't need evidence. It's a cold hard fact. But if you watch fox you will never know what for instance the Pakistani society thinks of America. | The link I provided for you is fact. You are the one who has stated repeatedly Saddam had no links to terrorism. I have given a link that states he did. That is not rhetoric. That is not my opinion. You may refute it at any time with your own link and facts and we can go back and forth. That is called debate.
We support people who are not a threat to us. We don't support people who are a threat to us. That is not hypocrisy. That is common sense. We don't care what Pakistani society thinks of us. Why would we? We live in America. Like I told you a while back, you've got enough problems where you are to fix before you try to tell us how to think and live. You're country is infested with terrorists and it's not our fault pal. It's the fault of your clerics who run those schools of hatred brainwashing children to hate the west, Jews, and Christians. You might want to work on that if you want to make a better world. Your priorities are skewed.
