I post an article, with the viewpoint that the U.S. and Israel should follow the Geneva Conventions, and you see this as anti-american?

Or is it simply that posting any article from any Arab nation shows that I am anti-american?

I could, and have, posted many articles from European, British, even U.S. sources, which questioned the methods and tactics used to prosecute the war. Are they anti-american?

Colin Powell said the prisoners at Guantanamo should be treated as POWs:

<American newspapers say the US Secretary of State, Colin Powell, is likely to urge colleagues to reconsider the status of the detainees sent to Camp X-Ray at Guantanamo Bay. He is arguing that a case-by-case assessment should be made of whether detainees should be declared prisoners of war, the reports say.>

Is he anti-american, along with the newspapers that published his remarks, and the posters who post those articles?

Do you, in the end, define "anti-american" as anyone who disagrees with you?
