Here is some message From: Palestinian Diary (25.10.01) Please, America, don't make me an Osama bin Laden Why I hate America By Khalid Amayreh I would be dishonest if I said I didn't hate the American government. I do hate it, so really, so deeply and, yes, so rightly. America is the tormentor of my people. It is to me, as a Palestinian, what Nazi Germany was to the Jews. America is the all-powerful devil that spreads oppression and death in my neighborhood. How can I not hate this "great Satan," the evil empire? Does anyone expect people to love their tormentors? America has been, and continues to be, the sponsor, enabler, protector, and justifier of my people's misery for the last fifty years. America is the author of 53 years of suffering, death, bereavement, occupation, oppression, homelessness, and victimization. America is the usurper of my people's right to human rights, democracy, civil liberties, development, and dignified life. America is the abettor and financier of Israeli occupation, apartheid, repression, terror, and territorial aggrandizement.all at my people's expense. America is the protector, maintainer, sustainer and guarantor of despotism, dictatorship, dynastic fiefdoms, and brutal autocracies, theocracies, oligarchies, and monarchies. America is the evil power that denies my people their "freedoms and democracy." America is the tyrant, global dictatorship that robs hundreds of millions of Arabs and Muslims of their right to freely elect their governments and rulers because corporate America dreads the outcome of democracy in the Muslim world. ets.
