“It was Verhoeven’s contention that America is little else but a violent nation that has no interest in peace, law, and order, or diplomacy but is the quintessentially violent cowboy, self-interested, and mostly a lawless place.”
When you translate his Leftist doublespeak into English he’s just saying that Americans don’t like to be lemmings, refuse to cower in the face of tyranny, and will take action to stop it on their own without feeling like they have to wait for some one else to do it. When there’s a problem America takes care of it. He wants Americans to become just like what the Euro-peons have become - a bunch of limp-wristed, girly men who couldn’t fight their way out of paper bag if required to do so.
You know, it’s crazy how they insist that Americans are all about killing, when it’s Europe that engages in the holocaust.
