>If all Americans decided to stop thinking with their fists< Well, I don't think it is fair to lump all people of a country into one tidy pile and put a label on it, however, the current administration appears more willing to be the iron fist than what we were used to in the recent past.This comes not only from their philosophy , but the fact they were attacked without what could be considered provocation. I am Canadian. But you do not necessarily speak for me or share my thoughts with what you have written here.I have been to the US many many times and have never had a problem or concern when there.I guess it depends on where you go and what you do, just like anywhere else. And that's -- the truth. KC

<< My view of America comes from impartial news services around the world and not CNN. >> Judging from the lack of understanding, in your note, I would have to guess that your news source is from the comic pages around the world. << If all Americans decided to stop thinking with their fists and missiles and read history ... >> Let's do that some other time. I'd rather seriously kick some Moslem terrorist ass now, and read later. By the way, there were about 3000 killed on Sept 11th, not 2000. << ... about how their government, corporations, and military have lied to them by controlling the media into only publishing what helps them propogate their agenda in the mid-east. >> There are many news sources available in America, from the very liberal to the ultra conservative. Most major stories are very verifiable. Most news sources also have liberal, moderate or conservative analysts, who give their opinion. Your accusation that America's media is totally controlled by a highly managed, almost impossible plot between government, corporations, and military, is a stupid, naive comment. And, your note fails to point out that politicians do make mistakes, in America, as well as throughout the world. Every political decision isn't a stupid plot to dominate the world.
