hang on a minute SimpleTruth, i think cyrus has some good points, america are forcing there culture onto arabs, you do not know how powerfull the people in washington are about selling there lies. they force it all on us with mass conditioning, just look at our western society.
your ideas about the western governments are naive. in another post you wrote how all the people died in vain so todays government can take our freedoms, and now you are saying that the wertern governments promote freedom.
i live in england and england is a police state, and america is fast becoming one, period.
remember the 55 million that died in vain in world war 2 so the western governments can now take our freedoms

You're racist for calling me racist.
Racism is dead with the educated.
Even if Washington is so sly as you say, when you get down to it, it's still the people's choice if they want it or not.

Cyrus, I cannot STAND your claims that all the problems in the Middle East are due to America! That is so beyond.....just ANY kind of common sense! Seriously man, what the hell? That's fine if you really think that, but if you do, then I'm concerned about you.
[B] LIKE I CARE? [/B]
There are so many tribes, sects, divisions, groups, enemies and allies, religious affiliations, cultural affiliations, national affiliations etc. WITHIN the region and they all war amongst each other! name them... tell me, before isra-hell was placed "oh so conveniently" smack down in the middle of the middle-east...were there any problems? not really now were there???
I can't believe you don't see that.well...my labelling you a jew in this case would be ironic wouldnt' it? however, every person wants to believe what they think is best for their personal benefit...disagree with that and i refuse to argue with you on any level
To blame everything on America is just ignorant! and to claim ignorance on some1's oppinion...is??
You may think the invasion of Iraq was ill-timed or planned, and you know what, I'm not even arguing against you on that. But how can you think we ruined the ME? It's laughable.
actually? since the day isra-hell was plopped down in the middle-east the arabs weren't given a break in that region, take a look, lebanon, civil war 1975, jordan lost it's battle despite it's having british-trained troops back then, isra-hell was a problem...still is, go figure
Also, your concerns about us westernizing all nations: excuse me............HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHOHOHOHOHOHOHOHUHUHUHUHUHUHUHU!!!!!!!!!!
Yeah, so what are you claiming? Do we shove McDonalds down their throats like a mom does to her baby? Do we force our evil music and movies on them? Do we require of all Arabs a quota that they have to be a certain amount westernized? HA! Ignorance!
okay... the pied piper played his tunes, lured the kids into the caves..and they were not to be seen ever again, and i guess the piper just felt like playing them tunes back in that fairy-tale huh?
newsflash: hollywood....movies...films...all forms of entertainment, is a pass-time, it offers a distraction, hollywood stars, gossip, magazines, all forms of westernized media, im not saying that's wrong is it? but when you infiltrate other countries with fastfood etc... lol, take a look at the girls in moscow, pshhhh! lardy-assed uglies...sad to see really, westernization? is a problem, i call it "syndroma americana".
Do you even KNOW what western ideals are? It's called a FREE-MARKET ECONOMY or CAPITALISM. Key words: FREE-MARKET.......emphasis on FREE!!!!!!! LOL! Even if we were IMPOSING on them so horribly, they don't HAVE to do ANYTHING related to western culture, because by DEFINITION, western culture promotes freedom for whoever to do whatever they want! In other words, Arabs don't have to touch one happy meal you ignoramus!
if you're so liberal why's your government labelling you all like sheep? about as free-market economy as my arse is, are you proud of your population btw? and how mad will some people get when word spreads about how soft-drinks catalyse the reactions taking place in your stomach, and therefore...the food breakdown process is vehemently increased, meaning...fatty layers build up at a phenomenal rate simply because the food gets digested so fast, all this for profit (you tend to buy more burgers with every visit)
So what can you deduct from what's happening? Oh, maybe that some Muslims WANT western trends! Do you know what supply and demand is? If no one in that region WANTED any western music, media, food, clothes, etc. no one would BUY any of it. Therefore, it would GO OUT OF BUSINESS, meaning IT WOULDN'T BE THERE! So BECAUSE western ideals pop up there is testament to the fact that there are actually people who LIKE it! The GOVERNMENTS don't like it because their people taking to western trends means TROUBLE FOR THEIR GREEDY POWER!! That's where the conflict comes in.
i know what supply and demand is...but tell you what, why dont you discuss mcdonald's ever declining revenue, i'm sure some people suffering from obesity are now realizing, that a healthy diet is probably the best thing...*sigh* when you're done with explaining how "affected" your populace has been by mcdonalds alone, cults...big mac's...cokes....M$...god damnit, EVERYTHING the world doesn't really need comes from under western arseholes THESE DAYS HUH??im not asking you to point out some of the advantages, like taking over iraq for instance (sigh).
How is America wrong for simply displaying her ideals? It's up to everyone on who WANTS them. It's like advertising. We show what we have, and they can take if they want! So if you have trouble with these facts, why don't you join some group of suicide bombers or something to actually put some action into those words you're farting out.

That is the single most idiotic statement I have heard this year.
I have said/typed some pretty stupid things in my life, but I can't believe you even typed that.
Your answer begs the question.......How old are you?

Have you ever actually been to America? Do you actually know any Americans?

Those Islamic extremist need to be dealt with.
US extremist if they are serious can join the military and see first hand what fighting is about. Those who go crazy and open up fire on innocent civilians should be dealt with too.

Regardless of where you like to live, judging the entire US by having been to NYC a few times is wrong. That would be like me only going to Berlin and then judging all of Europe on my experiences in that one place. Or Judging Europe on the Europeans I have met here in NY. Even though the majority of Americans speak the same lanquage, the US is a pretty diverse place. Perhaps you should schedule some more trips to see more of America before you generalize the US anymore than you already have.
I have been to Europe a few times and enjoyed it. But I will not generalize the place or it's people. That would be arrogant.
