As opposed to you, of course. I'm an American and accept no responsibility for British colonial laws.
What about the Mexican land you took and the natives you murdered. And the war in Philippines? Btw weren't British, Spaniards, French and other Europeans your ancestors. Or were you a black slave brought to a plantation to do their work for them?
Americans happen to be amazing people who make no mistakes I believe. This is a quality only Americans have. Despite being the only country to have used nuclear bombs to kill 200,000 innocents this same country believes it has a right to do what it wishes. I don't know if I should laugh at how highly you hold your head after crimes against humanity or weep for where the world has come to today.
That is so off I'm compelled to ignore what follows.
I could say the same about the stuff I hear about ISI daily. Frankly I am willing to admit ISI is an issue-will you admit genocide against Japan? Will you admit CIA is a terrorist organization? How does ISI take the fall and CIA escapes? Sounds like a lot of fun isn't it. Turn our lands into hell, cause us a damage of $80 billion fighting a war that shows no sign of ending and in the end abandoning so-called allies. A traitor is perhaps always a traitor.
In any case none of what I ever say is un-researched. This should be proof. Naom Chomsky:
The bin Laden network, I doubt if anybody knows it better than the CIA, since they were instrumental in helping construct it. This is a network whose development started in 1979, if you can believe President Carter’s National Security Advisor Zbigniew Brzezinski. He claimed, maybe he was just bragging, that in mid–1979 he had instigated secret support for Mujahedin fighting against the government of Afghanistan in an effort to draw the Russians into what he called an “Afghan trap,” a phrase worth remembering. He’s very proud of the fact that they did fall into the Afghan trap by sending military forces to support the government six months later, with consequences that we know.
Bay of Pigs invasion, declassified documents on Iraq war showing some insidious designs. Waterboarding? Ring a bell? No crimes according to you? I don't understand how you claim to be a moral power who can tell us what to do. You are acting like a typical person who shifts blame. I don't understand how your media can paint ISI as the enemy without saying how the CIA has been the real issue in the Afghan-Soviet war which we couldn't hope to win without US support.
Didn't know the "agencies" were quite that thorough. You don't answer where Americans' responsibility for Pakistan ends and Pakistanis' - yourself, personally - responsibility begins.
I did. The last part was your reply which went over your powerful American brain which has a superiority-complex. I said when US doesn't interfere in my countries affairs I could easily be shouted down as an idiot if I said US was responsible for so and so. Instead I can bring entire files of proof of where and in what cases US has been responsible for things. CIA does have declassified files btw and wikileaks was a help for journalists worldwide.
To the U.S., the relationship is one of mutual defense, as defined in numerous diplomatic agreements. Pakistani power players have long sought to convert or portray that into a straight alliance where the U.S. is dragged into supporting Pakistani offensives abroad and at home. Sometimes they succeed but that's out of circumstance, not moral right.
I understand. For a nation such as US a commitment to any nation is not forthcoming. It resulted in the fall of the Shah and many other US backed governments which hoped the US would support them. I hope it does not result in the fall of the US next, because oh boy... the celebrations here might get a bit outta control.
Self-honesty is a quality almost all Pakistanis seek to avoid, the preferred route being fantasy and denial.
You do not know me yet. I am one of the biggest critics of Pakistani policy and a lot of Pakistanis hate me for it. But I believe refusing to take responsibility for the world they see today, seeing the world as a personal property and believing they are morally entitled to tell the world what it should or should not do are qualities of your nation?
The U.S. is no pusher of diseased fantasies and thus not responsible for Pakistan being high on its narcotics of excess nationalism, fascism, religion, socialism, or racism (Pakistanis' drug of choice varies as is convenient).
You remind me of these old battery operated power ranger toys I used to have. You turned on the switch and one of them would say "We are the power rangers. We fight all evil". The thing is no one knows what that pathetic power ranger actually considers evil. Is it anyone who says a word against him? In that case he is a tyrant.
Basically when the rest of the world has been painted as an enemy and as a "potential aggressor" for years upon years upon years then it is no surprise that the only thing Americans excel at is war-mongering or war. Another statistic. In 82% of the wars in ica was involved.
Doubtful. Your attitude is that the U.S. "owns" responsibility forever. That way you or your family can initiate and continue crimes at home and abroad forever and ever, to your own profit, and blame the U.S. Even if you nuked the U.S. to oblivion I can see you would blame the U.S. for your ills for generations to come.
I doubt you will ever learn. Till you have might it will make you right... but through the barrel of the gun is no peace-only everlasting war... something that is written in my book too about the Pashtuns. You go to a region and fail to understand the local people you will go home disgraced. In either case if we have to pay the price with a Taliban government in Afghanistan much more hostile than the one before for our role in murdering them I believe then again the blame will be on you.
Stop being a child. Me and my family don't own oil businesses like the Wahabi Saudi Sheikhs you bribe. No one should be nuked. But many Americans have an average mindset of a psychopathic murderer. This is why Hiroshima and Nagasaki were nuked. By the way that bombs your credibility when you talk about Pakistani and Iranian nukes right back to the stone age, as one American diplomat once threatened Pakistan.
What does Pakistan need more: scapegoats or responsible citizens?
I could ask the very same question of you. Is there anyone in your country willing to rectify its mistakes... no scratch that. Is anyone even willing to recognize the mistakes of this country? You will parrot the official US line. I remember something from manufacturing dissent I could post here but you are a robot of the US doing whatever you are told.
