The world hates America because they want what we have.
Bitches.

But the US's retaliation to this is to force democracy and Christianity on a un-willing and un-wanting nation?

You're opinion is beginning to smell here damn canuck, eh!
Every nation has committed gross atrocities. Don't tell me because of an incident in Vietnam or because of the current instances of abuse to POWs is a reason why the "world hates Americans". Educated people understand that these things shouldn't happen, but that virtually every nation has its dark secrets. Hell, when this current thing broke about US troops treating POWs not exactly according to the Genieva Convention the world roared for the first time at the thought that Americans would do such a thing, when people should know damn well that their nation probably has done the same thing in the past. Its war, dirty things happen.
People hating the United States government for their business view points? I'm sure some do, but the thought of this is laughable, considering the American dollar is what funds most markets. Without the United States many countries wouldn't have that pot that I was talking about, to piss in.
I think as a whole, people have zero clue whats going on politically and hate without reason. Americans hate the illegals that come into the country, illegals love the work they get but hate those damn lazy Americans. The British hate those damn French froggies, and the french hate those damn limeys. The middle east hates each other, we hate the middle east, the middle east hates us.
There's always going to be hate because people don't know any better way to channel their energy. Its sad. People just need to grow up, do their own thing and not worry about everyone else. They're like little friggin kids bickering about bullshit.

For the record, we are not forcing christianity on anyone, especially the middle east. As a matter of fact, we can not even mail christian religous materials, such as the little weeklys that they hand out, to troops over there. The only people allowed to carry them there are Chaplins. There is no mixing of christianity with the goods and services we are handing out over in the middle east....just for the record.

Well I don't think that most there are educated enough over there to know what the hell they want. They're used to being controlled from birth, most aren't free thinkers.

Not much time for thinking when you have to worry about keeping yourself and your family alive, not to mention food and poverty.
