Good to hear from you. You captured the essence of the flight from reason after 9/11 with the following statement: "The fact of the matter is the Western powers obsessed so deeply over the evil people in the world they became themselves evil." Hi Will.

The fact of the matter is the Western powers obsessed so deeply over the evil people in the world they became themselves evil. Deeply evil. The United States has always been what our enemies claimed. We did have an official policy of genocide against the Native Americans for more than 100 years. Our founders were slave owners and breeders. Many of the various wars we have initiated were sold to the public by official lies. The Gulf of Tonkin incident, Saddams connections with Bin Laden, even back to the destruction of the Maine. We dropped 2 nuclear bombs on a civilian population after the Japanese tried to surrender. We even exposed our sailors to radiation just to see what would happen. We are not a nice culture, the Brits and the Americans. The worst of it is that we continue to kill, torture and lie about it. How can we stop this when our governments are perfectly willing to kidnap, torture, kill, and have all they need to cover up their actions? Who would stand against such people? It's obvious Obama is not that one. We cannot continue like this, eventually the world will have to stop us to save themselves.
