So, before writing longer articles by myself, I think it would be interesting to analyse, debate and talk about a phenomenon that is quite widespread worldwide : anti-americanism and hate toward Americans and USA. This entry is an introduction to the subject.Later, I'll try to write about : "an alternative view about 9/11", "why European identitarians and fascists hate USA", "main clichés about american people and their reasons".However, as I don't pretend to have a great knowledge, these articles shall be "launchers of debate" and "share of personnal informations" rather than encyclopedical demonstration of sources and knowledge. Afterward, a synthesis of comments, of point of views would be made, and submitted as an entry as well.To launch debates more easily, after the informative article will be written down a kind of "agressive" question with an extreme kind of anti-american content. That way, the most radicals points of view would be exposed, in a somehow provocative purpose, and so, debate around it shall be easier.Let's start then with one of the most obvious reason why out-of-USA people can hate USA : the american war crimes and foreign policies of the last 67 years. Ever wondered why some people burn american flags, why latinos see this country as the evil, why the ex 13 colonies of America are "victim" of such an animosity? The list below will certainly give a part of the answer.(This list is directly copy-pasted from there : www.the-philosopher.co.uk/whoc… all credits go to the original writer of the article )(similar-but-less-complete list : www.krysstal.com/democracy_why… beginning of copy-paste. _______________________________________________________________________________________________________"The indiscriminate use of bombs by the US, usually outside a declared warsituation, for wanton destruction, for no military objectives, whosetargets and victims are civilian populations, or what we now call"collateral damage."Japan (1945)China (1945-46)Korea & China (1950-53)Guatemala (1954, 1960, 1967-69)Indonesia (1958)Cuba (1959-61)Congo (1964)Peru (1965)Laos (1964-70)Vietnam (1961-1973)Cambodia (1969-70)Grenada (1983)Lebanon (1983-84)Libya (1986)El Salvador (1980s)Nicaragua (1980s)Iran (1987)Panama (1989)Iraq (1991-2000)Kuwait (1991)Somalia (1993)Bosnia (1994-95)Sudan (1998)Afghanistan (1998)Pakistan (1998)Yugoslavia (1999)Bulgaria (1999)Macedonia (1999)US Use of Chemical & Biological WeaponsThe US has refused to sign Conventions against the development and use ofchemical and biological weapons, and has either used or tested (withoutinforming the civilian populations) these weapons in the followinglocations abroad:Bahamas (late 1940s-mid-1950s)Canada (1953)China and Korea (1950-53)Korea (1967-69)Vietnam, Laos, Cambodia (1961-1970)Panama (1940s-1990s)Cuba (1962, 69, 70, 71, 81, 96)And the US has tested such weapons on US civilian populations, withouttheir knowledge, in the following locations:Watertown, NY and US Virgin Islands (1950)SF Bay Area (1950, 1957-67)Minneapolis (1953)St. Louis (1953)Washington, DC Area (1953, 1967)Florida (1955)Savannah GA/Avon Park, FL (1956-58)New York City (1956, 1966)Chicago (1960)And the US has encouraged the use of such weapons, and provided thetechnology to develop such weapons in various nations abroad, including:EgyptSouth AfricaIraqUS Political and Military Interventions since 1945The US has launched a series of military and political interventions since1945, often to install puppet regimes, or alternatively to engage inpolitical actions such as smear campaigns, sponsoring or targetingopposition political groups (depending on how they served US interests),undermining political parties, sabotage and terror campaigns, and so forth.It has done so in nations such asChina (1945-51)South Africa (1960s-1980s)France (1947)Bolivia (1964-75)Marshall Islands (1946-58)Australia (1972-75)Italy (1947-1975)Iraq (1972-75)Greece (1947-49)Portugal (1974-76)Philippines (1945-53)East Timor (1975-99)Korea (1945-53)Ecuador (1975)Albania (1949-53)Argentina (1976)Eastern Europe (1948-56)Pakistan (1977)Germany (1950s)Angola (1975-1980s)Iran (1953)Jamaica (1976)Guatemala (1953-1990s)Honduras (1980s)Costa Rica (mid-1950s, 1970-71)Nicaragua (1980s)Middle East (1956-58)Philippines (1970s-90s)Indonesia (1957-58)Seychelles (1979-81)Haiti (1959)South Yemen (1979-84)Western Europe (1950s-1960s)South Korea (1980)Guyana (1953-64)Chad (1981-82)Iraq (1958-63)Grenada (1979-83)Vietnam (1945-53)Suriname (1982-84)Cambodia (1955-73)Libya (1981-89)Laos (1957-73)Fiji (1987)Thailand (1965-73)Panama (1989)Ecuador (1960-63)Afghanistan (1979-92)Congo (1960-65, 1977-78)El Salvador (1980-92)Algeria (1960s)Haiti (1987-94)Brazil (1961-64)Bulgaria (1990-91)Peru (1965)Albania (1991-92)Dominican Republic (1963-65)Somalia (1993)Cuba (1959-present)Iraq (1990s)Indonesia (1965)Peru (1990-present)Ghana (1966)Mexico (1990-present)Uruguay (1969-72)Colombia (1990-present)Chile (1964-73)Yugoslavia (1995-99)Greece (1967-74)US Perversions of Foreign ElectionsThe US has specifically intervened to rig or distort the outcome of foreignelections, and sometimes engineered sham "demonstration" elections to wardoff accusations of government repression in allied nations in the US sphereof influence. These sham elections have often installed or maintained inpower repressive dictators who have victimized their populations. Suchpractices have occurred in nations such as:Philippines (1950s)Italy (1948-1970s)Lebanon (1950s)Indonesia (1955)Vietnam (1955)Guyana (1953-64)Japan (1958-1970s)Nepal (1959)Laos (1960)Brazil (1962)Dominican Republic (1962)Guatemala (1963)Bolivia (1966)Chile (1964-70)Portugal (1974-75)Australia (1974-75)Jamaica (1976)El Salvador (1984)Panama (1984, 89)Nicaragua (1984, 90)Haiti (1987, 88)Bulgaria (1990-91)Albania (1991-92)Russia (1996)Mongolia (1996)Bosnia (1998)US Versus World at the United NationsThe US has repeatedly acted to undermine peace and human rights initiativesat the United Nations, routinely voting against hundreds of UN resolutionsand treaties. The US easily has the worst record of any nation on notsupporting UN treaties. In almost all of its hundreds of "no" votes, the USwas the "sole" nation to vote no (among the 100-130 nations that usuallyvote), and among only 1 or 2 other nations voting no the rest of the time.Here's a representative sample of US votes from 1978-1987:US Is the Sole "No" Vote on Resolutions or TreatiesFor aid to underdeveloped nationsFor the promotion of developing nation exportsFor UN

Providing asylum for Cuban, Salvadoran, Guatemalan, Haitian, Chilean,Argentinian, Iranian, South Vietnamese and other terrorists, dictators, andtorturersAssassinating World LeadersUsing assassination as a tool of foreign policy, wherein the CIA hasinitiated assassination attempts against at least 40 foreign heads of state(some several times) in the last 50 years, a number of which have beensuccessful, such as: Patrice Lumumba (Congo), Rafael Trujillo (DominicanRepublic), Ngo Dihn Diem (Vietnam) Salvador Allende (Chile)Arms Trade & US Military Presence. The US is the world's largest seller of weapons abroad, armingdictators, militaries, and terrorists that repress or victimize theirpopulations, and fueling scores of violent conflicts around the globe. The US is the world's largest provider of live land mines which, even inpeacetime, kill or injure at least several people around the world each day. The US has military bases in at least 50 nations around the world, whichhave led to frequent victimization of local populations.. The US military has been bombing one Middle Eastern or Muslim nation oranother almost continuously since 1983, including Lebanon, Libya, Syria,Iran, the Sudan, Afghanistan, and Iraq (almost daily bombings since 1991)This, then, is a sampling of American foreign policies over the last 50years. The FBI uses the following definition for Terrorism: "The unlawfuluse of force or violence committed by a group or individual, who has someconnection to a foreign power or whose activities transcend nationalboundaries, against persons or property to intimidate or coerce agovernment, the civilian population or any segment thereof, in furtheranceof political or social objectives." This sounds like the terrorism we justexperienced. It also sounds a lot like the US policies and actions since1945 that I've just described."_______________________________________________________________________________________________________end of copy-paste.So, as you can see, the country called by somes "the land of freedom and democracy fighting for Liberty" has an ocean of blood on its hands, especially when considering the fact that these crimes are only the ones from 1945 to nowadays, without mention of all the numerous previous atrocities.When all casualties from this list are counted, we reach the number of : 12 835 000 killed by American interventions, without counting East Timor.Add this to all the other crimes and terror acts in these lines, and I think it's now quite easy to understand why some people want to see USA burnt down.Imagine you would be one of the victims, or a kind of supreme judge, wouldn't you condemn this country to capital pain, shouldn't be a such monstruous criminal punished with a sentence as extreme as comitted atrocities?If countries guilty of lesser crimes, if regimes and leaders responsible of way softer barbary are invaded, punished, destroyed by military interventions, shouldn't USA know the taste of bombs launched on civilians, the terror of an army devsatting its lands, raping its women, smashing its children as well, to realize what war really is, what innocents abroad had to suffer?Personally, as I'm for a mature mankind, this isn't what I desire. The ones innocent of these crimes don't deserve to die because of the presence of butchers from their land.But, I'm not sure that if I were living in one of the victim countries I would think the same way... By chance, the 60-61's socialist strikers in Belgium haven't been bombed by american forces.We are the Children of Earth, Our Blood is Red.NurIzinCommissar of the Treasury.
