Reply #12: They don't hate us; they hate shrub

[supernova]

and as in the ME they've hated our policy there... for many years. It's all spilling over now. Shrub was kinda match to tinder I'm afraid. And it's up to us to understand that because he's our president (ugh!), so we're the only ones who can fix it, i.e. give the world somebody they can deal with.

Will we get the message? :shrug: Those of us who engage in armchair foreign policy on the left do, but on the right? I have my sincere doubts.

edit: clarifying. They don't hate us as individuals who happen to share the planet; they hate what we do in the world.
