Lose Change-would be a movie. You can believe whatever you will.

Absolutely agree, I think they want to see Americans dead, and have been responsible for many deaths of Americans, albeit covertly. The US should do what it must when attacked by a foreign nation, to declare war.

greed and corruption, lack of democracy, and the intolerable suppression of a people by their government\n\nOh, by the way, I'm talking about the United States

because they had large amount of land to farm/plant. they need people to help them farm without using that much energy themselves. it's very cruel of course.

Eye-opening, a wake up call. It's time America woke up to the fact that these people are out to kill us, destroy our way of life and put their own perverted system in control of our country and the rest of the world. \n\n When they say they intend to destroy us, we perhaps better pay attention!! To do otherwise would either be naive or unconcerned about our nation's well being.

It is bad because it is illegal. They have brought their own country down to an unbelievable state of desperate economy and all but trashed it. They need to stay in their own country and fix it, not come over here and potentially bring ours down to the same level. Americans fought to establish our country and make it prosper, they can do the same for theirs. They should not reap the benefits our forefathers fought and died for. Do you seriously think in a time of war they would stand and fight for America? No, they would go back home to avoid it, or sit idle and expect us to fight for them also.

Because the USA is owned and run by corporations that need the capitalist system to thrive.

of course it became the way of earning money of armenian diaspora.they are provocateurs.and killing a lot of people(not civilians as i believe) is different from a genocide.and u must change your question it must be "genocide by words" ;)

The US has almost nothing to do with it, because it is in their beleif system.  They are radical fundamentalists, something we will never be, because they will kill themselves for a cause.  The US presence there has no hope of changing that short of every person over there dieing.

You look at the people who made Mexico "horrible", as you define it, everyday.\nIt's so enraging to see that most Americans have no idea of the large responsability their country has had in keeping most third world countries poor, through the thousands of murderous coup d'etats the US has supported, backed and even enforced (Chile 1973, Argentina 1976, Iran 1953, Guatemala 1948 - just to give a few examples), though abusive "free trade" agreements that destroy the local industry (NAFTA FTAA), through imperialist military interventions (the most recent examples in Haiti and Iraq), through proxy wars, "low-intensity" warfare, bombings and millions of covert and non-covert actions many US people (like you) are too lazy to learn about.\nThe US was built on the backs of the third world, so learn your facts before you speak.\n\nBesides...you may not want illegal immigrants in your country, but the corporate elite that rules the USA does want them, so that they can pay squat to them. \nRemember, illegal immigrants are not "taking american jobs", American companies are the ones giving them to them... If the US government would force companies like Wal-Mart to pay an equal wage to illegal immigrants, the incentive to hire them would be gone, and, in consequence, immigrants would find no incentives to move to the US (ie:no jobs for them). But you probably had already figured that out on your own, didn't you?

You've made an intelligent observation. Yes, I think the government is doing this. Maybe they want to avoid becoming like China. \n\nOur same government slaughtered 120 million native American Indians when this country first began. It's not that hard to believe that they may still be doing Machiavellian things to the masses.

For the USA, it created the question "why should I die to further someone else's political ambitions"? It effectively killed the draft - which has repercussions right up to the last presidential election. It made the use of military force a very expensive tool for American politicians to use. It made Americans question their government, which improved democracy until recently.\n\nFor the Asians, it proved that a guerilla war done long enough would weary anyone who was trying use military might but didn't have the moral callousness to be as brutal as the guerillas.\n\nOnce the war was over, it proved that underneath the "east-west", "commie-freedom" fight was really a hidden ethnic battle that had been there for centuries - rmember all those boat people? A lot were ethnic Chinese "driven out" by the repression of Vietnam.\n\nIt also did what it was supposed to, and stalled the Communist expansion before it swallowed Malaysia, Thailand, and Burma.

Think of the formation of America. A bunch of rebelous folks from England decide that they don't want to be oppressed. They sail off to America, and they find someone else already lives there. So theses British-Immigrants decide to take the country for their own, by killing the Indians that got into their way! The country was born when the Pilgrims began cheating and killing the natives.

Well, this may come as a shock to you, but Americans DO own MOST of the world.  The entire world's economy is based on the US dollar. Technology and productivity, human rights, and quality of life have improved ALL OVER THE WORLD because of American innovative thought and ( YES!! ) compassion!\n\nWhy are we now embroiled in a situation where MANY ( NOT ALL!! ) non-American's hate us?..I think it is JEALOUSY!!\nYes, there are GREEDY and SELFISH American's...But I think you'll find those faults also in other cultures.\n\nBottom line: Americans only want the BEST for everyone!!..We don't want to conquer or impose our will on anyone.  But we will fight to preserve our way of life! And the world would be better off if other governments would simply recognize that fact, and let us HELP them.\n\nDon't under sell American resilience and resourcefullness!\nWe will be a powerful force to deal with for MANY more years.\n\nDon't tread on us!!

The American Gov. helped get Saddam in power there so they could have control over Oil...Then due to the great wealth amassed by Iraq due to oil revenue, SADDAM got carried away with his riches..His people went without and he spoiled himself and his followers...Those that tried for Justice were killed off.Whole communities were wiped out...And it would be still going on today had Saddam not believed he could take on the USA...Saddam turned on the Nation that bought his country from the Dark Ages into one of the richest countries on Earth..Now we have to Silence (Kill) him before he lets the rest of the worl know what he had to do for AMERICA when he was a dictator.
