    I don't hate the US, I think it's an over simplified comment. I pretty much have no time for any government, or wannabe government, whichever country they happen to be in. Democracy has been overun by beaurocracy...it doesn't matter how much you complain to a body...there's always enough layers of red tape to make you think..."ah fuck it"!
    And, that,.... is the plan.
    I'm convinced of it.
    I came, I saw, I concurred.....

    There's a saying in the sports world "hate the players don't hate the game"

    For you it seems to be about hating the game. That's unfortunate, and it's all yours and for yourself....not mine

    im just saying that if anyone really wants to know why the us isnt very popular on the international scene, this video is not the one to explain it. it's not very sophisticated or intelligent and doesn't really tie together its premises, so it's not especially informative or convincing.

    Man that was hard to read! Especially when we got to the bit about interfering, there was something in there about the Australian Federal Election of 1972 I think but I've got vertigo now just from trying to work out what it was. :eek: :o

    Do you think their rap sheet is as long as the one the US has?

    It feels like the US was aiming to do something EACH year, like it was some game. If they missed a year they'll back it up by 2 events the next.

    No one says China isn't doing anything wrong but it seems their issues are more localised (doesn't make it right, i know). They also aren't the ones who keep boasting about being the beacon of democracy in the world.

    china's little 'forays' into tibet and burma were about disputed territory. tis not like they looked around and said: righto, that country way over there looks a bit too socialist for our liking, let's show them the error of their ways. :)

    They don't hate the country, and it's people, so much as it's politics and foreign policy. Big difference. Same reason that anti-Zionism is not anti-Semetic. Actually it's the exact opposite, it's really pro-semetic.

    Corrupt governments that want to take over and control the world is the problem. It's driven by corporate greed.

    I agree with you, it's not about the people but the foreign policy.

    Burma and Tibet were just the first two that popped into my head. :) I know if I did a bit of research that MUCH more would be apparent. And that's before we even get on to the Human Rights abuses the government perpertrates against their own countrymen. China are a super power, just a quiet one. Their methods might be different to that of the US but they're certainly not likely to be awarded any humanitarian awards anytime soon.
    NOPE!!!

    You don't think cate? Coz the way I see it what they do is no different to what the US does except for the methods they employ. Well that and it's not like we're getting ANY media reports about what they're up to. Thank you Rupert. :rolleyes:
