when one does a cold analysis of the deaths that americans have caused not only in iraq, afghanistan and pakistan but even places like vietnam i realise that americans can in fact never acknowledge the destruction they have caused and the people they have killed.
the pro-american types on this forum it seems have to live in a state of enforced delusion and cognitive dissonance on a spectacular scale, this is in fact a necessity because the other option will lead to a complete shattering of their delusions and claim to moral high ground.
ofcourse we pakistani's and the wider muslim world know more than most that the US has disdain for human life that is not their "own" (ask some hurricane katrina survivors) - yet i find it very ironic when they tell me what a terrible person saddam was with his treatment of the kurds - as if to say they are deeply touched by their plight (lol) - yet care nothing about the hundreds of thousands they have just killed and destroyed in places like iraq, afghanistan and pakistan- NOPE, ITS ALL CROCODILE TEARS TO THEM, THEY DONT WANT TO HEAR IT.
so really i am wondering what a peculiar mental and moral juggling act they need to engage their brains in to continually believe that they are right and just and to continually lie to themselves and the people they engage with, no matter how sophisticated they pretend their arguments are ultimately they preach peace they practice death and killing on a large scale, how confusing to be a pro american lover eh?
