DP world

Now, I have delibirately stayed away from the DP world subject for a while now, thinking that it was just petty name-calling, and that it would die down in the US.

Then, I read this on yahoo news: "The House Appropriations Committee voted 62-2 on Wednesday to block the deal, and GOP congressional leaders privately informed the president Thursday morning that the Senate would inevitably follow suit. Senate Democrats clamored for a vote, increasing pressure on Senate Republicans to abandon the president." (D. espo, A. Taylor / AP)

I realized that its much deeper: Its rascism from a country touting equality.

Pathetic.

Who the hell do they think they are to view us as terrorists? I could just as well view them as ignorant; but the difference is I never generalize. And then I hear some crazy theories on how we could have potential for al-qaeda cells. My answer: more likely in the US, than here. We had an Israeli delegation here for the WTO meetings a while back, and no cells popped up there? We had Dr. Condoleezza Rice here, and still no threats whatsoever (from "potential" cells).
I think that public opinion is quite frankly, extremely biased in the US. But Im not worried, with China coming up at the rate that it is, and the way India is shaping up, the US will regret falling from our graces someday.
