Somewhere in Kenya a Village is Missing its Idiot

[pocketfullofshells]

Are you happy and satisfied with yourselves? So many people in the world not only dislike you but also hate and can’t stand you. Already for years anti-americanism is quite natural for young intellectuals in all parts of the world. Unfortunately, not only for them. Including Europe. Your embassies are turned into fortresses even in allied countries, in peaceful European countries. Even Russian embassies do not look so armed. Thousands of your soldiers, young people die in many countries of the world. Nobody wants to buy your goods, your workers lose their work. Even so friendly UK sneers at your famous American cars.

You don’t believe - just look yourselves how the British evaluate (whatcar.uk) your cars ... Cadillac Escalade two stars of five, Chrysler Sebring – the same – only two stars, Dodge Avenger (Charger) – two, Hummer H3 – only one, Chrysler 300C – achievement! – three stars. Do we have to wonder that one of the biggest car markets – Europe – practically ignore the American production? It could be only half of the trouble but also Russians, Chinese and others are being influenced by it.

For the young people America is connected with bubbles of Coca-Cola and McDonalds which parents usually abuse about using the most terrible words since their children’s childhood and doctors shout even louder. At least in two European countries – at schools it is forbidden officially to sell sodas.

The most recognizable symbols are ... Paris Hilton and Britney Spears.

The world more and more compares the USA with the collapsed USSR which had an impressive army, disgusting cars and weak money.

The economics of America has limped for years. The well-known researcher Tony Judt in his book „Postwar: A History of Europe Since 1945” shows that the economics of America became a shadow of Europe long ago – already in 2000 Europeans’ direct investments into the economics of the USA were 900 billion USD against 650 billion Americans’ direct investments in Europe. America got almost 70% out of all external investments from Europe and multinational companies in Europe then had a great amount of American cult products.

Almost every evening the biggest Russian TV channel PRIME TIME in its comments nastily jeers at Americans. For example, saying that American military doctrine can be characterized very simply – unpunished killing of unarmed opponent from a certain distance.* It can’t and mustn’t be called just a simple point of view, it is an information channel for hundreds of millions of people in Russia and behind its borders.

Americans, are you happy and satisfied?

It seems that a part of Americans has understood that now it’s the time to change something. That’s why they trusted Obama to rule the country.

Europeans characterized it shortly – it is the best what could have happened to America.

But having a look from aside it seems that many

Americans haven’t understood it yet. There are Americans who call themselves – Christians and patriots of the country but it doesn’t disturb them from propagating hostile offence against Obama on the Internet. Not long ago in a big surprise I saw a picture, sent out by these patriots, where the following can be seen – „Somewhere in Kenya a Village is Missing its Idiot”.

I only want to ask these American patriots how can you be proud of the country where the elected president is missing idiot in Kenya village?

Now it’s the time when Americans have to join together at last in order to change something. It’s the time to support a person who the world is ready to listen attentively to. To listen and to hear.

Let’s hope that Americans will understand it and finally that day will come when thousands of young Americans and their opponents who are usually the same age don’t die because of high-flown antiamericanism.

Let’s hope that a day will come when Americans in the whole world do not have to hide themselves in the fortresses of embassies.

Let’s hope that a day will come when Americans do not have to lose their work only because American cars and other goods are something strange.

Let’s hope that Obama does not have the same destiny as Gorbatcov. Gorbatcov is still being respected and admired abroad while Russians can’t understand that he gave to Russia a possibility to get back its self-respect and took away a disgrace sign of the aggressor.

Americans must understand that Obama symbolizes not only Changes but also a Challenge. Positive.

Have a nice Day and be careful!

Don't under estimate Russia.

Should remember - from KGB chief Andropov time 70-80ties KGB recruit the best educate students, it was high educate elite.
It's no surprise that they run country.
Main problem - some of them still thinking like in 80ties - "Cold War" categories.
Putin in that time was second level player. In KGB hierarchy he was on low level - spy in EastGermany. Highest level works in real west. Putin wasn't enough good.
Now main problem for Russia is one very active but far not enough smart leader who still thinking like in 80ties.

Welcome to the world of infotainment (i.e. entertainment sold as news).

The lesser-educated folks (in the U.S.) have their source, as well:

As-far-as American military doctrine goes....our military is pretty-much at the mercy of whoever is President....and, between 2000 & 2008, our President & his Cabinet were people who did everything they could to avoid their Generation's war (Vietnam):

Somehow, they figured they were entitled to send others to die in the Middle East.

You're preaching to the choir, here.​

 

[Mr. Shaman]

Some of us care a great deal but we see the current administration as the problem, not the solution. Then we are chastised for not jumping on board a sinking ship.

It's a little late, for that.

YOUR ship already sunk.....

yes its not a shock, but some of us had high hopes for a Democratic Russia. Not one where the Goverment silences disent with bullets and jail again...and fakes terror attacks to invade its former states, and kills its former agents who write about them.

 

[Mr. Shaman]

Sure and in that Utopia all Muslim Extremist/Christian Extremist/PLO Extremist/Taliban Extremist...etc., etc., etc., will learn to love each other as human beings and not as a religious enemy!!!

What we need to do is drop our Clerics & their Clerics on an island, somewhere....with baseball-bats....and, let 'em finish each-other off!​

I would love to see those 'stats' on how much Gorbatsov is 'admired'???

I guess you'd need to be old-enough to remember what went-down, between ReRon & Gorby.​

"Maggie Thatcher finally cajoled the Gipper into meeting Gorby, and Gorby cleaned Reagan's clock. Reagan's hard-right "handlers" nearly had to drag Reagan out of the room before he signed away our entire nuclear deterrent. Reagan -- and the planet -- was lucky Gorbachev sought genuine and stable peace. Had Yuri Andropov's health held, Reagan's "jokes" and gaffes might have caused World War III."

Says the person who thought the Bush Titanic was a fine sea worthy cruise ship... LOL!

BINGO!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

​

 

[Mr. Shaman]

Where is comunist, nazi and oher extremists? This is not Utopia, this is Past.

Yes....they're in the Past, but....you've got to remember.

Our Past eight-years, under Republican-control, were a little-more current....

.........but, we're feeling MUCH-better, now....

 

[Mr. Shaman]

You can't ask people in many countries. We simply don't know. Do You know what northkoreans really want? No. You know what crazy generals and comunist elite want not people.
Do You know what belorussians want?
Without democracy You simply don't know.

You make too-many assumptions.

Everyone wants the same things; to live free & provide for their families.​

 

[Mr. Shaman]

Don't under estimate Russia.

I would never under estmate that KGB/Maffia run nation ....

Yeah....right.....why can't they be more-like-us??

 

[Mr. Shaman]

Should remember - from KGB chief Andropov time 70-80ties KGB recruit the best educate students, it was high educate elite.
It's no surprise that they run country.

Yeah....we just went thru eight-years of that....assuming our Leader was highly-educated.

​

" Mr. Bush was not much of a student of politics, for he earned only a 73 in Introduction to the American Political System and a 71 in Introduction to International Relations. Few, if any, professors seem to have left a mark on him, or he on them.

The transcript indicates that in Mr. Bush's freshman year, the only year for which rankings were available, he was in the 21st percentile of his class, meaning that four-fifths of the students had better grades than he did."​

 

[Mr. Shaman]

yes its not a shock, but some of us had high hopes for a Democratic Russia. Not one where the Goverment silences disent with bullets and jail again...and fakes terror attacks to invade its former states, and kills its former agents who write about them.

Yeah....we only fake terror-attacks & expose our agents.

​

 

[pocketfullofshells]

Yeah....we only fake terror-attacks & expose our agents.

​

sorry but no 911 was not faked...and yes Bush Co. outs agents...I hope the guilty for that swing from the rope.
