Just because we're(the U.S.) bombing the Taliban doesn't make it our fault that the Taliban is a bunch of fucknuggets.
I LOVE your reasoning here. Because the people in power are really bad people and we don't like them or the company they keep(which I think 99\% of the world will agree with), we should punish the 90\% of the country who are NOT members of the government, who didn't elect them, who have no power to fight them (they are starving after all, and malnurished, unarmed desert people don't exactly make a good fighting force) buy not allowing the internasional groups to bring in food to them. Ya, this will really make them love us when the war is all over.
Why should they love us after the war is over? Will it be because we brought them a democratic government? Nope, because if we do what we have historically done (ie, what daddy Bush and Uncle Reagan did), we will replace the Taliban with whatever group(s) helped us out during the war. Guess who is helping us out? Groups that make the Taliban look like warm, fuzzy kindergarden teachers. I shit you not. So, we will probably leave them with a government that is even worst than they currently have, but it will be more friendly towards us, for a while anyway. Ya, that'll really be a good reason to love us (you dumbass).
There are plenty of good reasons a significant percentage of the world truely hates us. Guess what? A lot of the reasons are true. It's because of our shortsighted, ego-centric, bottome-line-is-the-only-important-thing views, and the fact that we "forget" about a lot of the dumb shit we do to other countries/cultures/ethnic groups and then wonder wtf they don't like us and act all inocent. Just proves my views that most politicians need to be shot. Bush needs to be shot twice. Same with Daddy Bush and Reagan. Use a buck shot on Clinton, let him go slowly. Mini gun for the rest.
Ok, I'm done being pissed out our forieng policies for tonight.
