Naive americans

I wanted to make the subject line : Stupid Americans. But decided against it, because I don't want this thread to be seen as petty or spiteful.

Before I go further I should make it clear that I am well aware of the fact that 49% of Americans did not vote for George W. Bush. But that still leaves 51% who have some serious explaining to do. This post is not going to focus on just how dumb your leader is (enough has been said on that topic). Instead I want to focus on some of the lies that America is holding up as the truth.

The first one is propably one of the most controversial lies ever. The story goes that your government attacked itself on 9/11. Now initially I also thought that this was as absurd a notion as you could ever get. But then I watched TerrorStorm and my opinion changed immediately. If this is true (and I believe it is), then it would not be the first time something like this has happened. They call it False Flagging in the documentary (which you can watch on YouTube). The reason the government is getting away with it is because it so wholly unbelievable and also because your government is slowly taking away your right to free speech. Did you realize this? You are not allowed to speak your mind anymore. If someone dares question what happened they are immediately marked as crazy (Charlie Sheen?). If I and all the others are wrong then it should be very easy to prove us wrong. But instead of attempting this, your government acts childish and petty. They shift the focus away from the actual issue and focus instead on whoever is questioning thems past, trying to discredit the person and not the accusation.

Then there is the invasion of Iraq (how many of you know where Iraq is?). I will agree that Saddam Hussein was a ruthless,heartless dictator, that mercilessly murdered his own people for his own personal gain (sound familiar?). But he is not alone in the world. Is America planning on freeing all oppressed people, or just the countries with oil? Iraq wa invaded because they definitely had WMD's (Weapons of Mass Destruction), but they didn't, did they? I have yet to hear an apology for lying to all of us. Most Americans (online anyway), are not even sure where their children are dying or what they are dying for (what are they dying for?). Do you realize that there are people trying to live there (women and children). Imagine if your suburbs suddenly turned into a war zone, and the people who say they are trying to help you are the same people who are bombing your home every day. A very small percentage of Iraqis are terrorists (propably smaller than the percentage terrorsists in America). So do you still think its fair to try to turn Iraq into a glass parking lot?

Like I said in the beginning. I am well aware of the fact that not all Americans are dumb, it is just a pity that the dumb ones are the loudest ones and in some cases the ones who make the decisions.

So let us discuss these and other very important issues in a mature and respectfull fashion.
