p>Try the same thing to day. Nothing has changed. BR>-- Jay W. Molyneaux p>Well done, Mr. Orlet. Only one quibble -- the Michael Moores and Julia Sweigs and Dahlia Lithwicks and Maureen Dowds and Chris Matthews and...are, in effect, useful idiots as well as useless idiots and ingrates at a minimum. The other question is why do they hate us? BR>-- P.A. Melita BR>Charlottesville, Virginia p>Hats off to Christopher Orlet for a marvelous response to the hate America Democrats, liberals, leftists and fifth columnists. Having lived in Western Europe I have only contempt for the racists and anti-Semites who abound there (primarily in the ranks of the effete left). It is amazing that on a supposedly civilized continent tens of thousands of people often die during the summer, because they don't have air conditioners. No wonder Europeans are green with envy -- even our poor live better than much of Western Europe's working and middle class. p>As for those Arabs and Muslims who hate the U.S. -- they hate everybody so who cares what they think. Even if we throw Israel "overboard" they'll still hate us. We're infidels and unwilling to submit to their hate filled theological chauvinism. The best thing we could do is explode Electro Magnetic Pulse weapons over Iran, Syria and other unsavory Muslim states that encourage anti-American terrorism and instantly return them to a time and lifestyle reminiscent of the prophet or the Caliphates. Poof! The threat of a nuclear Iran is gone. p>Quite frankly, who cares what foreigners think of the U.S.? We've got enough to worry about at home with the threat of Democrat disciples of European appeasement, anti-Semitism, anti-Christianity and neo-Jacobinism taking power and flushing us down the same crapper Europe is in. BR>-- Michael Tomlinson BR>Crownsville, Maryland p>Christopher Orlet writes that of the nations that like America, "Three of the four, however, are liberal democracies: Japan (63 percent favorable), Nigeria (62) Great Britain (56), and India (56). Not surprisingly all five predominately Muslim countries surveyed held highly negative views." p>When last I was there, The Hausa forces of the Sultan of Sokoto and other Islamic Northerners were celebrating Nigerian exceptionalism by riding south to dip their Korans in the sea, and shoot, shell and strafe my hosts in the Christian minority enclave of Biafra . Since then the 65,000,000 Muslims in the majority have settled down into what I had mistaken for a sporadically murderous kleptocracy, but now that Mr. Orlet assures me I am mistaken, I will pay closer attention to the e-mails of the many Nigerians anxious to show their pro-American bona fides by offering me unclaimed megabucks as soon as I dispatch bank account numbers and complete proof of identity. I'm sure Orlet will hasten to forward his.
