Mike Savage calls it "The Master Religion", shades of "The Master Race".

Let me ask the naive questions: Why is America responsible for the dictators in the Arab world? Why is the just force used to remove the Al Qaeda network behind the WTC considered more of an atrocity than killing 3000 innocent civilians of more than 60 nations? Why isn't the fact the U.S. gives more aid to Arab and Muslim causes than the Arab world considered? Why are peaceful West Bank settlements condemned but slaughtering civillians applauded?
I don't understand their condemnation or point of view.

I thought that we rebuilt Europe and Japan after the last Great War.
And, we havent driven jet planes into buildings filled with unsuspecting, unarmed people, like some vermin that we are now aware exist.

I was trying to get my brain to think up your post, when I saw that your brain had been quicker. Yes. Exactly. Tell the starving Germans and Japanese still huddling in the wreckage of WWII about our inadequacies at reconstruction. Point to this great example of how the cowboy Americans just stir up hate on all sides.
Hate to mention it, Abdel, but the last two countries on which we really thoroughly exercised our "mastery of destruction" are helping us fight you this time around. Germans have died doing so, and the Japanese are stretching the limits of their post-war anti-militarism to help, a very big deal for them.

The Americans are experts in destruction but novices in reconstruction, reform and renovation. They must learn fast.Yeah, right, that's why we're all living in mud huts with a 90% illiterate population. And that's why we have spoiled rich kids flying airplanes into buildings and killing thousands of innocent civilians, and that's why we teach our youth to strap explosives to themselves so they can blow 18 month old babies and their mothers to pieces.
Oh, wait, that's not us, it must be........

Great point, our former enemies are helping us defeat our new enemy. It must be because we treated them so poorly after WWII........

Your response re the so called destruction of America is excellent and needs to be reposted:
