Dear America,
I've always known America as a Nation that values freedom, democracy, peace and liberty, but not anymore. America only loves itself.
This peace loving America is primarily responsible for the continuation of the suppression and dehumanization of the Palestinian people by the Zionist State of Israel for many decades.
This same freedom loving America condones and supports the construction of the apartheid wall that is effectively caging Palestinians into enclaves and ghettos of poverty.
This democratic America is supporting a Shiite Government in Iraq which is systematically religiously cleansing Baghdad of its Sunni population. A genocide of the Sunnis in Iraq is going on with the Secular America supporting a Shiite religious sect against the Sunnis.
There are some very serious contradictions... Why?
I personally love the American people. There isn't a more fun loving and care free people in the world. But these same people are allowing its Government to commit the most atrocious crimes against innocent people... Why?
9/11 was a crime condemned by most Muslims and Arabs, but the American Administration with the support of the US Congress chose to start wars against Muslim Nations instead of developing stronger ties with Muslim States to fight terrorism together. Even France became a foe when it voiced its objection to Americas push for wars instead of diplomacy.
The problem with America is that it has allowed a Jewish Lobby to dominate its foreign policy. I do not believe that the US foreign policy is in any way a reflection of the will of the American people as a whole. US Foreign policy in the Middle East is the foreign policy of Israel.
By blinding supporting Israel, the US denies freedom, peace and liberty for the Palestinians.
America is a Nation that is driven by money. The primary interest America cares about, as a people and Government, is money. And that is the main reason 9/11 was tied to Iraq.... Iraq has oil which provides the energy that fuels the US economy.
In fact, America planned to start this unjust war against Iraq even before Afghanistan, to secure its primary interest in the Middle East, oil.
And it's still not enough, now America wants to start a war with Iran....
The crime of 9/11 pales in comparison to the crimes committed by American after 9/11. Yet the American people remain silent......
I hope the American people wake up and get America back on track as a Nation that truly values freedom, democracy, peace and liberty for all peoples of the world.

The answer is actually quite simple. The choices for election left us with no other options. What the government of America condones and what the people think are often times two different things.
As a large group, we are not sure what is going on or why, and the individuals who know this is an outright travesty constitute the minority voice and are seldom heard - and in the case where we try to explain this massive wrongdoing to the rest of our country we get ostracized for the attempt, regardless of how much proof there is to support us.
As odd and illogical as this seems, the rest of the world knows there is something horribly wrong going on in America, and there are a handful of American citizens who know this too - but the majority exhibit cattle like behavior which plays into the hands of our ill-conceived government.
In our hearts we still believe in democracy and freedom... but I think mob mentality has deluded the majority into allowing such atrocities to continue while they are easily distracted with our media. I'm going with the Orwellian 1984 scenario... and I hate to say this but Americans in general are simply too ignorant or apathetic to care or do anything about it.
And while there is no excuse for ignorance and apathy, I would like to inform the world that regardless, there are those of us who are trying desperately to talk some reason in the rest of our country... as ill-fated as our attempts may be, at least if this ends horribly, we can die knowing we tried.
Oh yes, blame Zionism for everything, blame it for your crappy life in your crappy country, for your lack of education, freedom, human rights.
Palestinians act like animals. Don't blame the jews for acting against them, blame yourself and your religion and your gov't for holding muslim people down, and for blaming all their problems on the tiny % of people in the world that are jewish.
The Jews are the biggest scapegoat in the world... geez
Its America's fault Hamas and Fatah fight like scorpions in a bottle or that Arafat rejected a deal where he got everything he asked for.
Right.
Dear Jerk,
There are NO Jewish suicide bombers only Arab/Muslim, Sunni/Shite ones.
Israel only wants peace, its neighbors only wanted war, but when Egypt got its ass kicked around enough it sured for peace.
I'm so sick & tired of the typical propaganda view of Isreal & the "Jewish Lobby" from people in the Middle East, a region where vile race hate propaganda books like Mein Kampf & the Protocols of the Elders of Zion are still popular books you can find almost anywhere.
Unwash your brains! Cheers!
Cal: "This peace loving America is primarily responsible for the continuation of the suppression and dehumanization of the Palestinian people by the Zionist State of Israel for many decades."
The Palestinian people are responsible for their own wretched fate. They prefer to hate than build a future. When Palestinians hail mothers who send their sons off on futile suicide bombings, then they have sunk to such a depraved level that they are not recognizably human.
And its the depth of hypocrisy when Muslims like you talk nonsense about suppressing the Palestinians when your object is to perpetrate a second Holocaust in Israel.
Cal: "This same freedom loving America condones and supports the construction of the apartheid wall that is effectively caging Palestinians into enclaves and ghettos of poverty."
The Palestinians live in poverty because their leaders steal the millions in dollars of aid meant for them and because the Palestinians lack the business smarts of the Israelis. If the Palestinians did not have a policy of terror in their relations with Israel, there would be no wall to keep Palestinian murderers out.
Cal: "This democratic America is supporting a Shiite Government in Iraq which is systematically religiously cleansing Baghdad of its Sunni population. A genocide of the Sunnis in Iraq is going on with the Secular America supporting a Shiite religious sect against the Sunnis."
Pure nonsense. Muslims naturally kill each other, Shia versus Sunni, because they profess a violent and barbarous faith. You Muslims don't give a damn about Muslims killing each other. That's why there wasn't a peep out of you when Saddam was mass-murdering Shia.
Cal: "9/11 was a crime condemned by most Muslims and Arabs, ..."
No, it wasn't. Muslims celebrated it. Imams endorsed it. Such terror attacks are Islamic doctrine. To this day, most Muslims claim Arabs never committed the crime because Islam is a religion of liars.
Cal: "...but the American Administration with the support of the US Congress chose to start wars against Muslim Nations instead of developing stronger ties with Muslim States to fight terrorism together."
Most Muslim nations support the terrorists. So do their mosques. Islam supports such bloodletting to conquer the world for Allah.
Cal: "The problem with America is that it has allowed a Jewish Lobby to dominate its foreign policy. I do not believe that the US foreign policy is in any way a reflection of the will of the American people as a whole. US Foreign policy in the Middle East is the foreign policy of Israel."
You are an ignorant and bigoted Muslim who blames everything in the world on the Jews. Your Neanderthal religious prejudices renders you contemptible and backward in American eyes. Abandon your Stone Age hatreds.
Cal: "America is a Nation that is driven by money. The primary interest America cares about, as a people and Government, is money."
America is not making any money on Iraq, genius. Nobody makes a profit on a war. Nor do we make any money when we send aid to Iran when an earthquake flattens a town or Pakistan for the same or when a tsunami hits Indonesia. When tragedy strikes anywhere in the world, it's American helicopters flying first onto the scene carry doctors, medicine, and food. Not Omanis.
If all we cared about was money, we would not have allowed Saudi to keep the profits from the oil we found under their feet. How can you be alive in Oman and not know that America delivered Saudi Arabia into the lap of luxury? Do you ever stop and think about the stupid ideas you spout?
Cal: "And that is the main reason 9/11 was tied to Iraq.... Iraq has oil which provides the energy that fuels the US economy."
The Sep 11 attacks are tied to Iraq because the skyjackers met Iraqi agents in Prague and Kuala Lumpur.
We're not getting any oil from Iraq, which is barely exporting any. It's infrastructure is too decrepit from negligence under Saddam and from sabotage.
If you ever read the papers, you'd find that Iraq, at the prodding of the US, is establishing a law that gives the Iraqi people ownership of the oil industry. That means individual Iraqis will get a check for their share of oil profits. Has Oman done that?
Cal,
I believe you're only getting one side of the story. Let me just point out that the "Apartheid" State of Israel in fact has over a million Arab citizens who enjoy the same rights as every other citizen. The wall to which you object became necessary because of the Palestinians' campaign of violence against Israeli civilians. And the policies of the American government, by and large, represent the will of the American people. Free people in a liberal secular democracy have a tendency to support other free people trying to live in a liberal secular democracy.
Peace.
This peace loving America is primarily responsible for the continuation of the suppression and dehumanization of the Palestinian people by the Zionist State of Israel for many decades.
I'm afraid not. The only people to blame for the Palestinians' condition today are the Palestinians themselves. When they demonstrate a willingness to negotiate in good faith and renounce terrorism, they can expect more support from the United States. Until then, they should expect very little.
Israel is a westernized, democratic nation much like the nations of Europe. When you ask us to favor the terroristic Palestinians, a people who have contributed little to civilization (other than possible improvements in the way of suicide bombings) and who cannot help but kill even each other in ridiculous feuding, over the civilized and productive Israelis, you cannot expect too much sympathy from the United States.
At the end of the day, there is no compelling reason for the United States to support the creation of yet another unproductive, terroristic , autocratic, and underhanded Arab regime in the Middle East.
ha ha Cal, you're getting your ass handed to you here. Guess you got nothing to come back with.
A genocide of the Sunnis in Iraq is going on with the Secular America supporting a Shiite religious sect against the Sunnis.
A secular America Cal? That statement alone is enough to disqualify anything of value you may have to say.
It's so far from reality to be comical.
