Why do the "terrorists" hate us? Not because they "hate freedom" as our fearless leader says. No, they don't hate freedom at all. In fact, they would like some of their very own.

If you want to know the main reason they hate the us, read Confessions of an Economic Hit Man, by John Perkins. In fact, there are several countries out there who hate us for this same reason. And the United States is not the only country that interferes in the internal affairs of other countries in this way.

Of course, no "Patriotic American" wants to hear this sort of thing.

Negotiate? Yes, that would help a great deal. Would probably solve the whole problem. But we couldn't just make demands, we'd have to listen to and heed some of theirs.

But again, no "Patriotic American". . . .
