elle,

If america is so perfect and you "hate war and respect human life" then tell me again what you did to the native american indians?? watch the movie "bury my heart at wounded knee" ,americans killed native american indians because you didnt agree with their way of life, calling them "savages", oh but i thought you were "open to new ideas"...... speaking of which.... tell me about mormons elle...... you sent them from kirtland, to missouri, to illinois and then to salt lake city and then to utah....... all because you didnt agree with their teachings and well, they worked together and their society was ten times better than ordinary american societies....no real reason there, is there??

oh and what about the slave trade?? pretty much the same ordeal there, they were black so they must be "savages"........

if you want to be happy and "live in peace" then remove your troops from iraq, why are american troops in iraq ??, because of the oil, even i can tell you that the terrorists you're looking for are in north africa..... and once again if you want to be happy and "live in peace" why won't you give up your weapons like guns and stuff.... americans will NOT give up their right to kill.....

What about when america sanctioned south africa?, it did nothing...... you just want to have control over everything, come to think of it......... the problems in south africa had nothing to do with America.....and once you sanctioned south africa, the economy got better, south africa became self sufficient.

The war in angola, america wanted power.... thats all they joined for.... you join and then blame everyone else in the war for everything..... no-one asked you to join....

When ever something happens in the world.... America is the first to want to take control, but when it goes wrong you are also the first to bitch and blame......

You guys are still so angry about the world trade center attacks..... only a few thousand people died, but in the tsunami around asia somewhere over a hundred thousand people died....... if you go ask them, they arent angry anymore......

America itself is not full of brainless idiots..... but your goverment sure as hell is.....

i find most of the comments left by americans to be hypocritical and vindictive.... oh and your country would not be nearly as strong if it were not for your resources (agriculture), and that is not the work of americans..... its nature....
