Saddam Hussein - by the way he got the key to the city of Detroit, Michigan in 1980

Saddam Hussein's brutal reign was made by U.S.A.

Saddam key in early CIA plot

Osama bin Laden -

CIA trained thousands of Muslims to fight the communists
invading Afghanistan, Osama bin Laden was one of the
leaders - the CIA sent billions of dollars to the mujahedeen
in Afghanistan in the 1980's and the CIA controlled the
heroin trade in Afghanistan in the 1980's

now in all honesty they were trying to do some thing good,
but it seams like every time it back fires, and they end up
making a super evil bad guy, - now people are starting to see
that the strings on the puppets lead back to the USA and there
getting ****ed - so thats at least part of why we are hated,
Also some of the world see us as FAT pigs that waste food, gas,
and natural resources, when they go hungry - you know stuff like
that - thats my guess why Aid is a little slow -

But I did hear onCNN that a lot countries offered aid so maybe there is hope

Yes, we are trying to do good.

The problem is, these people get backed by the US. Mind you, when they need the money and the supplies, and the US ponies up, they love us. But as soon as they get the taste/whif of superiority, BECAUSE of what the US has done, they think they are better then everyone, all powerfull, and the US can;t touch them. It is not the USs fault, the problem is that the people turn. Should we pick better, well, sometimes beggers can't be choosers.

Still, just because they end up as villians with our help, doesn;t mean they need not be dealt with. It also isn't our fault.

The rest of the world in general don't like us because, as Americans, we have freedom. Freedom to do what we want, when we want. As long as we are willing to pay, we drive big trucks, and eat fattening food, and help the world monetarily, and with military aide. Few, if any, other countries can say that. It's no different then the envy many people feel towards the super rich, who can do what they want, when they want, have whatever they want, while others can not.

Too bad for them.
