That really is the point isn't it. What really bothers Europeans is that we represent roughly 55% of the world's military force. 55% of the force in one nation, speaking one language, with complete interoperability. If we are awakened like we were on 7 December 1941 and like we should have been, but weren't, on 11 September 2001, we have the capability to destroy or rule any part of the world we wish. No consultation, no alliance, no coalition.

We have the power. If angered, we can and will ignore the words collateral damage. We have used power ruthlessly, but effectively, in the past, look at Dresden, Hamburg, Cologne, Tokyo, Hiroshima and Nagasaki.

When our country finally decides Islamofacisim cannot be tolerated, it will depart from this earth along with its followers on a one way ticket to ride.

I do not give a CRAP about whether people are angry at us or not.

I was DAMNED angry on 9/11, and after I watched the movie several months back titled "9/11" by the French brothers, I was even ANGRIER.

Then, when I saw the move "Flight 93", I was the only one in the theater who said anything, and it was "Those Sons of a Bitches".

So, yeah. I am angry. I had an acquaintance who died on one of those planes, and there were about 3000 other people I didn't know.

What we are trying to do in Iraq is magnificent. We are shedding blood and spending money to try to break the cycle over in that part of the world. Sure, it is in our best interests. We all stand to gain a lot if it works. We could just grab the oil while we are there, but we aren't.

We had 3000 of our citizens killed in just a couple of hours.
We would have been justified in carpet bombing and taking the damned countries over there by force, but we didn't.

It's not what we do. In WWII we could have taken and held as our own nearly any territory we occupied, but we didn't. We gave it back to the people who attacked us, and whose butts we kicked. It is the American way.

Now, we are giving those people a chance at choosing their own government, even if it (as seems likely) is a hostile one towards us. So be it. If we end up in a full scale conflagration in the Middle East, it cannot be said we did not try the humane approach to stamp out this festering, stinking thing called Islamofacism.

The rest of the damned world can kiss our collective ass if they don't like it.

"America, we hate you more than ever,"

Neat. I hope we replace your oil with something else so we don't have to care what you think anymore.

This is from the AP. Whatever the paper's editorial stance may be, the news pages are cut and pasted from the AP.

I don't think these morons realize how dangerous this crap is. At some point the US is going to decide "they hate us no matter what we do, so we might as well do what we want"

"Anger toward America is high, extremists are on the upswing and hopes for democracy in the Middle East lie dashed. ..."

... and the MSM hand-wringers that feed bias to the unwashed Arab masses are to blame!
