Rant: Those super-patriotic Americans, those... 'if you dont like the way I drive get the hell off my pavement' Americans... do they realise the world-wide level of anger against their country right now??? Do they realise the utter fury their arrogance awakens??? Do they understand how much international goodwill was squandered for no good reason... do they realise the irreparable damage their leader(s) inflicted on international relations and the concept of international accountability and law... will they understand that when the next terrorist attack on home ground occurs, and it really is a given now, much of the rest of the world will shrug and say 'well, they had it coming' ???
In the end, the ones who will be the most hurt by this all wont be the architects of this mess... it will be Joe or Mary Citizen. Just like 9-11. Although, in these days, ignorance and blind faith in your leaders can be no defense. Mr and Mrs Citizen live in the country that is perpetrating this unlawful war; with the freedom of democracy comes the responsibility of educating yourself on the issues when your government starts a war... and taking action when you realise your government is spinning out of control. I dont see much of that in the USA now... not according to the polls anyhow.
Do they know how furious I am... and with me, many others... and considering I am not Arabic or Muslim, can they even fathom how high the fury runs in those countries???
Do they even care???
