VANITY-An email from a 'European'

an email to me abour our soldiers ^ | 1-31-05 | Ignoramous

I defended a post by this person in a newsgroup where she posted an article that called ALL of our American soldiers stupid murderers.

I thought I'd post it in here and see if anyone can rebut what she states. Her statements seem so imcomplete and she is unaware of the circumstances surrounding her accusations....

Don't waste time in newsgroups, and Panorama apologized for the casualty report.

I'm not sure about the others, but how can our FBI take down a server in GB without the tacit approval of their government? What does Oprah and beef have to do with anything, that was a private lawsuit. IIRC the people wearing the shirts were told to leave by a flashlight wielding security guard, not Bush and Co.

We in Europe remember how America has been involved in destabalising and usurping a democratically elected government - Chile on Sept 11 1972 - used Agent Orange in Viet Nam, demonised left wing people in the entertainment industry during McCarthyism, supporting death squad governments in Central/South America, just to mention a few things, and, most recently, your FBI came here and managed to get the servers for several Indymedia sites taken down (thank goodness they are up and running again) Oprah Winfrey was landed with a court case just for saying that she wouldn't eat a hamburger again and we are regularly reading about how people in the States are being arrested just for criticising the government - a few months back it was a couple wearing T shirts claiming Love America, Hate Bush.

From the area of the world that brought us the Holocaust.

Try googling for information from other than left wing envirowhacko sites.
How she "feels" and her ideas about America are of little consequence to me.

AMERICA..HOME OF THE FREE BECAUSE OF THE BRAVE

[DixieOklahoma]

Katy, please allow me to be the first to say...



ZOT!!

[isthisnickcool]

AMERICA! F-YEA!

Europeans are just upset that America controls the "control-alt-delete" keys of the world. They can get over that, do something about it or post stuff on the Internet nobody should glance at twice.

[E. Pluribus Unum]

You can't argue with talking points.

It's like arguing with a parrot.

[Eric in the Ozarks]

Be sure and call us when you folks need the Arsenal of Democracy. Leave a number if we're busy...

ReL We in Europe remember . . STOP RIGHT THERE !

We, together with a coalition of the willing, helped liberate the continent of Europe twice in the last century.

[eyespysomething]

the fact that Americans can't seem to see any faults in their system and/or military.

Actually, we just don't sit around and whine and hand-wring about it.

What a load of BBC regurgitated communism

[cripplecreek]

Ive cultivated a very large list of e-mail pals around the world. I'm finding that the so called widespread hate isn't all that widespread. The hate is mostly rooted in the media everywhere.

My Russian friends are telling me a very familiar story. The feel that groups that conduct polls in Russia are seeking only answers that they want the people to believe. Literally every one of my friends believe that their media lies about America. They don't believe our soldiers are butchers and they don't believe America is a great oppressor.

In islamic nations there is hate for us and to a lesser degree there is plenty of hate in Europe. One of my Russian friends said today "Who cares what Europe thinks? They are not the world, they only think they are."

[VeniVidiVici]

Both our countries should hang their heads in shame at how we've sold weapons of every sort to countries that we later wage war on

Yeah, we had a tough time during the invasion of Iraq going up against their M1 tanks and F16 fighters.

Oh wait ....

[Katy_Katarina]

Panorama apologized for the casualty report

Thank you..I'll put that in my reply email.....
