Many in the world do not hate us and the ones who do have always hated usAnd now most of the world hates us. It was an opportunity missed.
anyway to the point where I don't think anything we could do could make them
love us. It is in their own self-interest to hate us.

Ladies, ladies. You are both dear hearts so please try not to take this personally - but I am so sick of hearing that old cliche "most of the world hates us." Just what the hell is that massively over-generalized statement supposed to mean? Why is it echoed throughout our land? They (the other struggling, working, loving, learning plebeians throughout the world don't hate US (you and me)!!!! They don't even know US! They hate THEM... the Regime of the Shadow Government Fascist Billionaire's Club and their army of witless, puppeteer lackeys. The Regime has done nothing but manipulate, destroy, dictate, dominate, bully, and bludgeon it's way around the world for so long that of course they are FEARED and despised.
But they are not US. They are the very ONES fomenting the old saw "they hate, us, our freedoms, our prosperity, our work ethics, blah blah blah." They want US to think that we are personally involved in this torch and burn, confiscate and loot, globalization project of theirs. If we, heavens to Betsy, could figure out,simply grasp, this simple (yet brilliant) strategy of theirs, the curtains would rise and we would see the veritable Wizards of Cause unmasked. They need US to think that the world hates US. It keeps US scared, dependent on our Regime's "protective" measures and placated concerning their unfathomable plans. "They hate US, all of us and so we must PROACTIVELY "protect" "ourselves". Yeah, right.
The world hates our deceptive, despotic, duplicitous Rulers and their secretive, self-serving, scandalous, malicious greed-driven behavior throughout the decades. To say that the world hates US is the equivalent of having a fumbling fool who bummed a ride in your car (that you thoughtfully gave a lift to), flip the bird to someone at the bar and then you come out and your windows are broken, doors dented in and he looks at you and smuggly, drunkenly blathers, "they must be mad at US". It's the exact same situation. Don't let the propoganda that "most of the world hates US penetrate into your subconsciousness. And if it already has - reject it - eject it out RIGHT NOW.
It is the most POWERFUL PROPAGANDA the Regime can use, and they bleed it to death. I guarantee you - the little old Iraqi lady making homemade hummas and pity bread in her tiny kitchen, without electricity, or running water isn't off daydreaming how much she hates you two dear ladies, or any of US. She may occasionally consider how ruthless, brutal, backstabbing, belligerent and dangerous our REGIME is, may cringe in fear at what they could impulsively do at any given moment, may despise their despicable policies, but she simply does not hate US.
Why is this important? Because the Cheney/Bush (always listed in degree of lackey importance) regime NEEDS US to believe this pure, unequivocal putrid propaganda in order to proceed to manufacture high priced military weapons (massive profit) deploy hundreds of thousands of troops (massive profit to arm, train, transport) and destroy Iraqi (read: take over and divvy up the entire energy resources of the conquered).

I've got news for you, they (the shopkeepers, shoe makers, nurses, babysitters, street sweepers, dentists, accountants, cooks, waiters, clerks of the middle east, or anywhere else DON'T hate US. They DO hate THEM. And THEM wants us to think that we are with THEM. Are you?
