Americans a bunch of slackers?

Your pentagon dismisses and resists any commitment of troops to the crisis in East Timor. Are you doing all that much? Why is East Timor not in you political and military interest? Even if Indonesia accepts foreign troops, you won't act quickly. Even though it is vital. Ever since Vietnam you have regarded Southeast Asia as out of your interests, and too far away. Yet you would fly all the way across the gulf to suppress one nation, how much more does it cost to free a nation from malicia violence? Certainly you wouldn't have to use any of you multi-million dollar weaponry, which could be sold to pay off your deficit.

You claim to be the centre of the world, you selfish pigs, why do you only respond when it suits you the best? Next you'll be saying that it doesn't affect you at all. Stuck up bunch of bastards, you haven't a surplus, and yet you control the markets with your lies. The money you make goes to making and purchasing more bombs, to inflict the lives of others, where are you when people need your help, and not you violence?

Take a lesson from Australia. How much bigger are we in terms of heart? If you lot think that you can just whistle Yankee Doodle while the world crashes around you, think again because time and time again it has been proven that nothing is unaffected by the actions of any one country. No-one is exempt.

Go on invoke those prejudice sanctions, too bad if millions suffer, your country is the home of the free.

Give us your tired, your poor, your weak, your hungry... stuff them if they do not live in America. Go on with your mass media, raising your school yard killers. You allow them to stay in your country, and yet two of my friends cannot ever get the chance to see you for a holiday that they've always dreamed of, simply because they have a criminal record. Yet is okay for your murderers, your rapists, your Klu Klux Klan racists to stay. I have never been so infuriated in all my life! You refuse to help simply because East Timor doesn't interest you as a military and political post. Shame on America. Shame.

Sierra.
