Important to call out statements like Bush's after 9-11, "t“Why do they hate us? They hate our freedoms, our freedom of religion, our freedom of speech, our freedom to vote and assemble and disagree with each other.” Actually no, that''s not why they hate us. they hate us for what we did in their country, for all the bombings and overthrows of governments and economic blockades.

I also want to add about Bush II, it's been said that when he talks about freedom, he means freedom of capital to flow anywhere it wants any time it wants with no interference from government. Nothing to do with people.

"The U.S. is that bad. This is the real American method of war, blindly celebrated."

This is no secret. It will continue, unless and until it is stipped by force.

That would certainly be a reasonable response.

But what I would fear more is that the elites who do this to foreigners will one day do it to you. In some ways, they've already started: see how they deal with the homeless.

Also, consider the Stasi-like state that would result.
