Perfect thread for anti-American ATS members to get on and display their hatred for America.. again.
OP, I appreciate the point you try to get a cross, but these people all have different ideas on why they think America is the agressor. Some of them who claim you are only getting your information through MSM while they are getting theirs from their secret squirrel 'I know more than you do' alternative source.
Reality is.. nobody knows what the fcuk they are talking about. Everyone gives their opinion based on what they read, so vicariously their opinion is no more educated than yours.. unless they all have hacked into NSA files and know more than you or I.
I suggest ignoring anti-America supporters.. they hate America reguardless of what goes on. Frankly, I could give a rats ***. Let them hate America.. there's nothing you can do about it. Good post

ETA: I know America isn't perfect.. it has its corrupt leaders just like every other country *cough*Iran*cough*.. and when the U.S. finally gets knocked out of power it will be another country for them to b*tch about, either that or they will be sorry .. let nature take its course and then maybe you might be able to play the 'I told you so' game.edit on 13-2-2012 by 31Bravo because: (no reason given)

This kind of logic makes me tinkle in my tighties.
We going to protect the gays and adulterers , by killing everyone.
Do you think after the dust settles, these practices will change? Its their culture, not ours.
And after Iran, or before, We have to "Free" Saudi Arabia, their Human Rights Violations are worse.

I don't understand why you people are complaining about the US sanctions, and we should just leave Iran alone, when they are the ones threatening us!

Just because people aren't ready to suit up and agree to kill more of our troops in a foreign war that has absolutely no benefit to America, that does not make anybody anti-American.
Oh? The FACT that Iran had a hand in almost every conflict against the U.S. is enough for me my friend. Stop listening to Alex Jones, and reading off of your BeforeItsNews websites.. some times a country really is as dangerous as reported.
Anti-Americanism is the idea that we can send our troops off to just get slaughtered for somebody else's foreign policy goals.
No. anti-Americanism is the peoples hostility towards the policies of the U.S. government. Not really sure who taught you your definition but it's extremely off track.
Iran has not attacked us,
That is true.. they haven't.. yet.
and is not threatening us in any way.
Acquiring nuclear technology IS a hostile act in itself because it leads to the temptation of a nuclear weapon. If you think they won't create a nuclear weapon you are naive.

Some members truly just don't deserve a response.

Don't be an idiot. Iran had nothing to do with Korea, Viet Nam, Panama, Grenada, Iraq, or Afghanistan. Stop listening to Karl Rove and get off your Project for a New American Century. Iran is no more dangerous to America than Iceland is.
If you think Anti-Americanism is "hostility toward the policies of the US government" then you have failed in understanding what makes America great. If you are also (as your handle indicates) a soldier, then you are a blood traitor against the Constitution which you swore to uphold to protect. If you are actually on base right now, you are violating US law by engaging in psychological operations against US citizens. Now THAT'S Anti-Americanism!
As an aside, Iran has every right to develop nuclear technology and perhaps even nuclear weapons. They have a rogue state to defend themselves against - Israel - who has never allowed the IAEA to inspect their nuclear facilities.
A fatal mistake would be going to war with Iran. We would be throwing away American lives in order to advance the foreign policy interests of a country that has actually attacked America repeatedly. That country is Israel.
Your fake fairweather patriotism is not needed in America any more. Again, if you are actually a soldier, my opinion is that you should be court marshaled and charged with treason.

This whole debate comes down to whose been at war with whom and for how long. Just because Iran hasnt declared war does not mean Islam is not at war with the infidel and that governments controlled by theocratic fascists follow the mandates of their religion. Islam mandates that you exterminate the infidel and impose Islam on the world. End of story.
