Infoshop News - A View from Abroad: The Evil Empire?: "It should now be clear to everyone in the world that the U.S. is not a country that is run by a corrupt and brutal government but populated by compassionate citizens simply at the mercy of this government. Unlike in other countries where the government may engage in brutal policies such as the military war on Iraq and the economic war on the world's poor but the population overwhelmingly opposes these policies, American citizens wholehearted endorse such acts of tyranny and even applaud them. When presented with an opportunity to rid their nations of those in government who would pursue the path of illegal war, the path of economic and military domination of the world, and who cooperate with the U.S. attempt to establish a world empire, the citizens of most countries speak with one voice to defeat these tyrants. In the U.S., they condone their illegal actions by overwhelmingly supporting them.
And Americans wonder why they're hated. They wonder why there are people who are willing to dedicate their lives to their destruction. Let's be realistic about this: No one is jealous about how free and great the U.S. is. This is the kind of thing that a mother tells some pathetic child to help him deal with being ostracized by other kids. Americans are hated because of their arrogance, their bloodlust, their desire to live vicariously through the criminal acts that their military visits upon the world--at least those parts of the world where people worship a different god than they worship or have different physical characteristics than they have.
So when we look at Americans, we need to realize that behind the wheel that SUV that sucks up the oil that America is building an empire to secure, chances are there is someone who applauds the deaths of tens of thousands of innocent Iraqis."
