Does the United States think irrational? Does the United States put down all other countries? After reading The Oblivious Empire and The War on Terroism, I couldn't help but agree with Hertsgaard and Andreas. After the September 11 attack, the United States have attempted to to matters into "war". The United States have a reputation of always using weapons of masive destruction to "solve" problems. This is why other countries have an issue with the US.
Bin Ladden attacks the World Trade Center and, as he expected the US woul react, we take charge and bomb them. Exactly their point.
In my opinion, the United States needs to their priorities straight. Thousands were killed during the 9/11 attack and we grieved. Now we go bombing the Middle East and are killing thousands including children. Innocent lives. Does that make any situation right?
