YES / NO Amerika has its problems, but isn't awful like the Nazis / Bolsheviks. "
Are people like you contributing to the problem with you deft pissing and moaning? Absolutely... spewed from your mouth is tantamount to treason? Yes. Am I willing to concede a single point of your American bashing tirade?... Would this country be better off without you and your kind? Magic 8 Ball says that it is certain.
so far all I have heard is a disproportionate level of pissing and moaning
Obviously to anyone who has ever read the US Constitution, this political body, "Amerika" is a foreign element. Senate Report 93-549 of 1973 even indicates the suspension of the Constitution. Without Constitutional powers or restraints, Amerika has a body of law (if any) unknown to the Founding Fathers. The Bill of Rights 1-10 are totally absent from life in Amerika. Free-speech zones, Class 3 licenses, stolen money for DoD salaries, warrantless searches, lawless due process, the suspension of the writ of habeus corpus, the total elimination of common law, forced labor cruelties, reduction of citizen to resident to consumer, denial of state suffrage within the Senate. The BoR are GONE.

No, the US isn't hated because it intervenes to right wrongs. Truth to tell, altruistic acts are completely alien to the US. The US has never...let me repeat that...NEVER intervened out of anything other than self-interest.

The US invaded and occupied Iraq for reasons that had nothing to do with terrorism or WMD and everything to do with getting its finger on the oil spigot in order to control foreign economies.
