The U.S.A. continues to show its true colours of greed, double-standards and hypocrisy in its dealing with other nations.
Throughout its history, America has been noted for its dishonesty, selfishness, greed, double standards and hypocrisy in dealing with others.
It started with their tretment of the Native Americans. A spiritual, peaceful people, the Native Americans were forced out of their land by the American Government, their main food source was destroyed, their people held in veritable bondage.
It continued with the other great nations - U.S.S.R, Japan, Iran, Iraq, South Africa, Panama, Cuba, etc., etc.
It was clearly reflected in the formation of the state of Israel and the unjust treatment of the real owners of the land - the Palestinian people who were rooted out of their own homes by America and its puppet, the U.N.
Now the attack seems to be geared towards Isalm - a sweet, practical, peaceful and just way of life in which classism, racism corruption and other social menaces are not tolerated - maybe that's why its the fastest growing religion in the world!
But this section of huamnkind is not the only one to face imperialist skulldoggery.
America, over the past decade has been one of the loudest voices supporting free trade and globalization.
It frowned upon the implementation of tarrifs on goods traded with allied countries.
How then is it, the very U.S.A. , has imposed a 30% tarrif on some of the steel products entering the country?!!
When other countries faced the brunt of globalization and bore the sacrifices made, the U.S.A. did not feel pity nor did the show concern.
Now that their steel industry is facing a challenging time, they fall back on their word, their much preached policies.
This is the sort of dishonesty and unethical behaviour we have come to expect from the U.S.A. - and this is why they are disliked.
Imagine the great pressure they exert on small nations -we all know about Cuba and there are many others, some you all may know about.
In the words of Che -
if you tremble with indignation at every injustice, then you are a comrade of mine.
I guess this shows why the U.S.A. and I are not comrades.
Are they yours?!!!
