>>CAIRO, Egypt -- Anger toward America is high, extremists are on the upswing and hopes for democracy in the Middle East lie dashed. The Lebanon war is creating dangerous ripples in the war on terror, the future of Iraq -- even the effort to keep nuclear weapons from dangerous hands.<<
This is from a Republican paper.
The Nazis and Japanese weren't all that enthusiastic about us either.
and we give a rats a$$ how?
Like I care......we must be doing something right if we are pissing them off
Here's the sole of my shoe for "world opinion". Go pound sand.
This BS was in the NEWS section, not the opinion section? WTF, I guess we should not be suprised.
"Anger towards Americans high"
YAAAAWWWWN!
I wonder what will happen if all Americans will start hating anything muslim...
Yesterday, he hated us enough to kill us. Now he hates us even more.
The Soviets hated us too. Color me unimpressed.

Do you marvel at the blind eye turned to evil by many “intellectuals” today? Does the creeping anti-Semitism that condemns Israel for defending itself against Hezbollah rocket attacks stun you? Are you baffled by the moral equivalency given to Israel and the blatant terrorist fanatics of Hezbollah?
Recently, I suggested in conversation that the world is recreating the precarious conditions of the 1930’s that led to the deaths of millions in the Second World War. Victor Davis Hanson, in National Review Online, has explored that very premise in a lengthy and illuminating article.
Some excerpts:
When I used to read about the 1930s — the Italian invasion of Abyssinia, the rise of fascism in Italy, Spain, and Germany, the appeasement in France and Britain, the murderous duplicity of the Soviet Union, and the racist Japanese murdering in China — I never could quite figure out why, during those bleak years, Western Europeans and those in the United States did not speak out and condemn the growing madness, if only to defend the millennia-long promise of Western liberalism.
Our present generation too is on the brink of moral insanity. That has never been more evident than in the last three weeks, as the West has proven utterly unable to distinguish between an attacked democracy that seeks to strike back at terrorist combatants, and terrorist aggressors who seek to kill civilians.
These past few days the inability of millions of Westerners, both here and in Europe, to condemn fascist terrorists who start wars, spread racial hatred, and despise Western democracies is the real story, not the “quarter-ton” Israeli bombs that inadvertently hit civilians in Lebanon who live among rocket launchers that send missiles into Israeli cities and suburbs.
The growing turbulence of the 1930’s went largely unchallenged by those in power in Europe who instead sought to appease, smooth over, and get along with evil instead of condemning or combating it. As a result, roughly fifty million people died in the vast war that followed, and millions more would suffer for decades under the scourge of Communism that rose from the destruction.
The evil history of man is poised to repeat itself. Who will stand to prevent it?

We already know.
It should go without saying that neither we nor any of our European "allies" will not have the courage to do what needs to be done.
I guess flying 3 American planes loaded with innocent men, women, and children into buildings full of innocent men, women, and children was some sort of term of endearment! I am in a mood today so F them!
