Yeah...I'm an American.
I regretfully concede to your opinion that the American GOVERNMENT (note: NOT "America" as a whole) has been acting in a selfish, bullying way recently. But I must take issue with some of your incendiary statements:
> ...the ridiculous
> 'propaganda' that CNN is making recently is just increasing
> HATE, racism and is feeding american desire for blood and war.
What kind of "propaganda" has CNN been spreading?
> but the worse part of this is: we, out of US can't have peace

1. We're not considered "selfish" when we distribute billions of dollars each year to aid countries in need of American money.
2. Newsflash: America IS a prominent world power (if not the most powerful). Granted, that does not make us the "centre of the universe," but anything that affects the US most often ends up affecting the rest of the political and economic world. Deal with it.
3. Bin Laden and the Taliban are the ones who seem to be having entitlement issues, NOT the US (unless you consider being entitled with a terrorst-free world a bad thing).

You're absolutely right, and Americans unfortunately are not as well-informed (or interested) in the rest of the world as...well, the REST of the world is. Our bad.

ANY country who suffers terrorist attacks will take it more personally than attacks in other countries - yours was a ridiculous comment!
And you also need to realize that this was an unprecedented tragedy (not minimizing the Oklahoma City explosion and the first WTC bombing). If you actually assumed the US would have taken this lying down, then you're naive.

Who is "we?" Are you speaking on behalf of a nation? Your country's government? Perhaps "I" would have been a better choice of pronoun.
> you just care about
> your 'american way of life',
I won't speak for my country (
) but yes, *I* DO care about my "American way of life," just as anyone ELSE in this world would care about THEIR way of life (be it America, Afghanistan or where-ever).

What a terrible thing to say! Your total lack of humanity is disguststing.

Hey, that's an unfortunate by-product of war. I don't necessarily agree with how my country's handling this situation, but it's quite ludicrous to bring up the killing of innocent people during a war, as if it has never happened in the past. It's a terrible thing, but it's also expected. You've shocked NO ONE with that comment.
> United Stated will never be the same
You're damned right!
> and you must open
> your eyes and face it: you don't live in a safe place.
Thanks for the newsflash. Anyway, America is still a relatively safe place - we don't have daily bombings and mass murders.
So why not come visit? You'll LOVE it!
> stop to
> think your pain is more important.
Once again, our (or MY) pain IS more important to me than anyone else's. It doesn't mean we (or I) lack sympathy for the pain of any other nations' people.
> there are a lot of people
> suffering right now, and your bags of food won't help in any
> possible way.
It helps in a SMALL way.
Would you prefer we just send more money?
> we despise your help.
Then stop asking for/expecting it.
Anyway, who's this "we??"
> 'first, receive a bomb in
> your ass, then, please, receive some food??' yeah, america, you
> are great!!!
We're not perfect.
> no wonder most of us really don;t care about you.
Apparently, as you can see from the replies you've gotten, SOMEONE cares about us.
> You are fourcing us to fight for YOUR cause, it happens that you
> are bothering us, you are deciding everything for us,
I can see that.
Except the "us" part.
> but we
> didn't ask your opinion about anything.
Did you mean, "YOU didn't ask OUR opinion about anything?"
Because I think we DID.
> your imperialism is
> disgusting, your culture is good for you, but not for us.
HAHAHAHAHA! Are you suggesting that American culture is not, right at this moment, being appreciated (nee completely LAPPED UP) by other cultures???
I'll bet you like "South Park."
> do us
> a favour, and learn with this tragedy, and please, leave the

Sorry, but this already involves the rest of the world.
> no one wants to go to US recently,
Have you taken a poll?
> no
> one is interested on you
Given your post, YOU seem to be. This is front-page news just about everywhere, so SOMEONE'S interested.

Well, I, for one, have learned my lesson. Thank you for enlightening me.
