Name the evil. The only evil I see are the ones telling us who we're supposed to be hating and who we're supposed to be afraid of.
You have to define evil for yourself.
You seem to be more afraid of the US government, bankers and capitalism. I fear known terrorists, who brutalize their own people to this day on a
scale never seen in US, actively seeking to kill people based on their religious ideology. I don’t like the usurpation of power in American any more
than you do but I recognize that there are bigger threats to my LIFE than AIPAC who isn't pursuing nuclear weapons with which to KILL me.

This is where I've realised that both left and right wing people believe in things which don't exist, seabag.
Left wing people believe in Utopia; an idea where everyone can get along. Where there's no war, no violence etc, everyone has enough to eat, and
everyone can be happy. You can listen to the song Imagine for a general description.
Right wing people, on the other hand, believe in ficticious threats, that are invented by the military-industrial complex in order to make money.
When the military went to Iraq, they found out that Sadaam Hussein never had any weapons of mass destruction to begin with. It was a complete lie.
There was a place in that country which they thought was manufacturing anthrax, and they eventually found out that it was manufacturing powdered
milk.
It's the same with Iran. That country is not a threat to anyone. If they are enriching uranium at all, they are doing it for power generation.
The Israeli government is rich, corrupt, paranoid, and psychopathic. They have murdered the Palestinian population on a massive scale, and they are
constantly trying to encourage the American government into more wars in the Middle East; they will use any bogus rationale that they can.
War with Iran will not benefit anybody, other than the usual contracting corporations, and maybe the Israeli lobby. It will mean that most people
will not be able to drive their cars any more, because fuel will get more expensive. It will antagonise Muslims more, and cause them to become even
more violent than they usually are already. The people who want this conflict only care about themselves, and they are a very small number. Everyone
else will suffer for their aggrandisement.
