What do you mean, John?

For whatever reasons the US has been singled out as the representative of 
evil in the world. We're not. We may do things that aren't the smartest 
way to deal with the rest of the world but we're NOT the DEVIL.

What I think is really happening is that the oppressors around the world 
use America's position and (sometimes) actions as superpower as a veil 
for holding their own people down in abject misery, poverty and 
powerlessness. They kick the living shit out of their own people and tell 
them its the US's fault.  These people are the ones who cause the misery 
that we get blamed for. 

Israel is not our fault. The British set it up and the UN was supposed to 
administer it. They failed miserably. Its been a hellacious mess since 
before I was born. Whole generations have know nothing but war in their 
homelands.

Its not the fault of the US.

Blaming the worlds problems on America has to stop.
