Why do they hate us? part 1

A question often and repeatedly asked by Americans, who just don’t know, or can’t grasp how despicable and loathsome their country’s foreign policies really are.

As far as Americans are concerned, the rest of the world is either a big nuisance, or just plain hostile. That maybe true as far as they’re concerned but what are the reasons behind it?

Your average American actually believes the bull that his media and politicians spew out, and thinks the answer to the above question is simply “because they hate our freedom and values, or they’re jealous of our prosperity”. That, aside from being childish and naive, highlights the serious disparity between the American people, and their political system, and that my friends is the core of the issue.

Most American people, are just like any other people in any other country in the world, they abhor and detest the bad things in life….cruelty, injustice, torture, oppression, violence, intimidation, war, poverty…..you name it, they hate it….just like us, just like everyone else….It’s a crying shame therefore, that their country is responsible for a lot of the “bad things in life” on a global scale, and throughout modern history. But of course, any “patriotic” American will deny that won’t he? All the above is just a baseless and misinformed attack against his country which is just looking out for it’s own, and doing what’s in it’s best interest…..all the countless invasions, wars, sanction, coups, vetoes and arm twisting are just legitimate acts of statehood and sovereignty. Given the Machiavellian self serving nature of modern politics, can you really blame the average American for believing all that crap? I dunno, can you blame someone for not stopping a crime that’s taking place in front of them? can you blame someone for not speaking out about a crime? The term “murder accessory ” springs to mind, and that’s just how the American people are being used by their government, as accessories to murder. Murder taking place everyday in their name…..the murder of Afghanis, Iraqis and Palestinians, and the odd Lebanese every now and again. Murder taking place in the name of the American nation, founded on the basic human instinct to resist oppression and tyranny, and champion of the cause of freedom and human rights……well, maybe it was once, but no longer. That dreamy romantic image of the great American nation has long since vanished and is now confined to the pages of history books which speak of a glorious past and of founding fathers and constitution writing and independence.

Arabs of course, have born the brunt of this Jekyll-Hyde transformation. We’ve always been on the wrong end of the stick. True, it wasn’t always the Americans holding it, but they did a nice job taking it over from the imperial English and French. They also did a nice job adopting Europe’s illegitimate child, born of centuries of guilt and given birth to by a bloody labor on the doorsteps of Palestine. Never again will the mistresses’ child want for anything, the stick is to be used solely for the whipping of the “old” children.

This whip has been brandished so often, that it’s really lost its sting. The Arabs are no longer fearful of the pain it inflicts, no longer intimidated by all the shouting and threats. They are resisting, they are rising up and speaking out…..hence 9/11 hence all the bombings hence all the “terrorism”…..Oh, of course not sorry I forgot, “terrorists” are just mad people who like to kill themselves for the joy of it and in order to go to heaven and get all the women there, they hate freedom and democracy and our way of life, and they want to destroy us because they hate us….they have absolutely no cause, and no legitimate struggle or concerns…..the fact that we are occupying their countries and killing their families has nothing to do with all those bombings, they’re just plain crazy irrational people……

And that my friends is the answer to the question “why do they hate us”……..they don’t really hate us, they just hate the way we’ve been whipping em around every now and again…..
