What a fool I was! What a dominated fool!
To think you were the earth and sky.
What a fool I was! What an addle-pated fool!
What a mutton-headed dolt was I!
No, my reverberating friend,
You are not the beginning and the end!
Without your pulling it, the tide comes in,
Without your twirling it, the earth can spin.
Without your pushing them, the clouds roll by.
If they can do without you, ducky,
So can I!
I shall not feel alone without you.
I can stand on my own without you.
So go back in your shell,
I can do bloody well
Without you!
Eliza Doolittle to Henry Higgins

Wake up America.
We've had enough of you and your arrogance. We've had enough of you and your self-centered souls. You are not the only country where you can go from rags to riches. You are not the only country where front-line scientists are created. You are not the only country where comfortable living is possible. You are not the country with the most admirable civilization, the most up-standing values, the finest arts, the lives most worth living. You are not the moral beacon of the world.
Will you please stop telling us we should be like you! Will you please stop traveling around the world with a sense of owning it all! Will you please stop thinking you are the salt of the earth!
There is a world out here that does not depend on you, a world that is at least as civilized as anything you can boast of. There is a world out here where young people get a first-class education, where they can go on to becoming professors and scientists, physicians and engineers without even getting any help from rich parents. You think money is everything. We think a good mind is everything. We try to create thinking people, people who can judge and question and doubt the validity of the acts of run-away politicians and self-righteous preachers. There are megalomaniacs in all countries of the world, but it's up to us the people to rein them in and not be daunted by the hubris of the people who run the country and who trample all over the planet with heavy boots and no souls.
We want a life that's worth living, a life of reflection and feelings, not a robot-like existence where the so-called values center around consumerism and soulless entertainment. We want human contacts, we want creative lives, we don't want to be just cogs in a wheel.
When are you Americans going to see that the megalomaniacs who are busy ruining your country and the world are just that? Sick bastards with the most enormous egos and the most putrid souls that the earth has ever seen. When are you going to see that you are not the upper crust of the world? When are you going to see that we Europeans, we Asians, we Africans, we Latin Americans don't want you to meddle with and ruin our countries. We can stand up fine without you, but with you we are destroyed.
Well, didn't someone wake up on the wrong side of the rock this morning?
You know, I can't figure out which is worse; the few Americans who do actually run around, cock in hand, screaming, "America is the greatest nation in the world!", or the bitter twats who cry about it.
Every nation in the world has citizens which are more nation-minded. Trust me. I am in Europe as I'm typing this, and since I've been here, I've heard countless folks from different countries spout out, "My country is the best country in the world."
Well, guess what, genius? It's only an opinion. And we ALL know the old maxim about opinions, right?
So, for god's sake (or Allah's, or Buddah's, or whoever's), stop crapping your panties over a few folks suggesting that America is the greatest country in existance.
You guys do the same thing about your nation.
Oh, and before you start complaining about how corrupt America is, you must keep in mind; no nation is without blood on its hands. It's not right, but it happens.
And please, don't give me this "we're neutral" nonsense. We all know that you weren't during WW2 (laundering money, perhaps?)
So yeah, cut the crap. You're no better or no worse than we are. Deal with it.
... don't you think you're betraying the same arrogance and ignorance you claim you see in Americans, with what you've just typed? I mean, you make wonderful claims, all of which are based on no fact whatsoever, only opinion, which do nothing other than "build up" the opposite side of the argument, which is in this case, "other countries", as if to suggest that every other country in the world is better than America.
Isn't that precisely what you're pissed at Americans for doing? Gloating about how wonderful they are?
Well, let me tell you something; I've met wonderful people in my life. Tons of them. I've also met tons of shitty people as well. For instance, st0neskull, on this forum, is an awesome guy. Very intelligent, articulate, and well-spoken. He's not American. On the other side, there's Madthumbs. He's intelligent as well, well-spoken, articulate, and open-minded. All are good traits. However, he is American. Does being an American automatically make him a pompous asshole? No. You're making an assumption, which is dangerous, that all Americans are exactly what you're pinned them as. This is false, and inherently stupid.
Now, if I wanted to be a total prick about it, I would say, "well, if you hate America and Americans so much, why don't you cease the use of American inventions and products, like the internet, computers, televisions, etc.?" But, we know that convenience beats conviction any day.
My point is simple: Americans have much to be proud of. You hate our government. Fine. Most of us hate the way our government is operated, too, which is precisely why we're here.
Don't judge all Americans. It's a simple-minded way of thinking.

Judging a whole nations population by a few bad apples is a very stupid thing to do!
Sure it's the arsehole's like George Bush, ConTheMedia Rice, Cheney and others who are scum of the earth but look how many Americans have taken up the fight for the truth. Even those who haven't discovered zionism and the havoc it wreaks but instead are trying to come to grips with understanding the tragedy that was 9/11 are to be commended. Because they are showing others that they are not willing to be lied to and that in the end truth will prevail.
So when you bag the USA you are also bagging people like Madthumbs who started this forum to get the message across.
Sure while I absolutely hate zionism and all it stands for, even I realise that there are probably decent folk living in Israel who realise what is actually going on and are against Israel being used as a zionist hate machine. So it would be silly for me to say "I hate Israel because yada yada yada!" when there is most likely some good there.
And as nur ein mann said, have a look in your own backyard before you start slinging rocks and arrows.

your rant is not very intellegent, there are 300 million people in america and just because our government does some stupid things doesnt mean that all americans are evil, and you hurt my feelings :(
America, Canada, Britain, Spain, Germany .. Etc. All run and controlled by the same "legal counterfeiting" cartel. Some people see and understand it (or think they do) and some just don't. Tell most Americans that George Bush and company are just another bunch of useful cartel puppets and you'll be a mile over their heads. In other words, most of them just don't get it. It isn't a Country thing, it is a Global problem. Canadians spend a great deal of time bitching about George Bush and the USA, but never take a closer look at home. If they did, they would find it is more controlled the States. Go ahead, check it out for yourself. There are those who know the real truth about America (for example) and they love to sucker people into the - blame it on Bush game. It is what they do and they do it well and it's called misdirection. They love to point people in the wrong direction and away from the real trouble makers. Our only value to these crooks are our tax and interest payments. We are slaves to this system and it is going to get worse unless something changes soon. It is no good talking to those who are wrong and want to be. We need to get out from under the control of these crooks. They don't want this control talked about or mentioned. The MSM is their greatest weapon, as it is the greatest propaganda tool ever invented. It will never talk about who runs and controls this global system and how it all came about. Everything via the MSM passes through the cartel's filter. I had better be careful, I might be accused of being Anti-counterfeiterism. What to do? The sheep need to get the control away from the counterfeiting and deceitful wolves. Who do you think will run for office and be "really" willing to do that? Oh and no Country is the "best" Country. You got to like that US constitution though!
