Bravo...preach it brother. You can go back to the Iran Contra affair and you had Oliver North at the hearing explaining why he had put up a security fence around his house and his answer was that he knew of very dangerous men such as one in particular Bin Ladin who were terrorists and who would use any means necessary to bring down this country. Why is it that some of these guys just don't comprehend the fact that there are people out there that hate this country with every facet of their being because the USA stands for freedom? It does not matter about our foreign policy, nor our political party in power, nor our aid programs nor our position on Israel, nor our trade policies. They hate us because we stand for freedom.

Part of the review from, Robert D. Steele, an Amazon Book Reviewer, says >He is especially strong on documenting the manner in which US aid grows in direct relation to the degree to which the recipient country is guilty of genocidal atrocities, with Colombia and Turkey being prime examples. The case can be made, and Chomsky makes it, that the US arms industry, and US policies on the selling and granting of arms world-wide, are in fact a direct US commitment to repression, genocide, and terrorism sponsored by one big state: the US. He is most interesting when he discusses the new US approach to repression, the privatization of actions against the underclasses of the world.< You said >If this is such an evil empire why does the US accept more than twice the number of immigrants as the rest of the world combined?< Cheap labor to supply greater profits for the elite while your jobs will disappear.
