There is a lot of anti-Americanism in the Middle East, and some of it is qu= ite ugly. I=E2=80=99ve criticized America a lot; however I am not an enemy = of America. I don=E2=80=99t want America destroyed, and I do not wish Ameri= cans ill. Whereas these people do wish Americans ill. And that makes them a= real enemy. In this matter I would like to help Americans out; and I do so by helping t= hem find the right arguments to confront this anti-Americanism. Now this ar= gument has not been made, but it should be. Do you know what argument can b= e used to strike to the heart of anti-Americanism in the Middle East? It is as follows. If not for America, they would be practicing Communism. A= nd if they were practicing Communism, they wouldn=E2=80=99t be able to be M= uslims at all. Whereas with America at the top they can be as Muslim as the= y want to be for as long as they aren=E2=80=99t killing Americans or their = allies. America is easy to attack. It is a big target. We see the same with any num= ber of people in the West who attack their governments and accuse them of t= yranny and corruption. These people don=E2=80=99t know what tyranny and cor= ruption is. As far as governments go, the ones in the West are quite mild. = If the government really were the way they described it as being, they woul= d be facing a firing squad. That they are not, even in spite of their hatre= d, shows just how good the governments in the West are. We see the exact same thing with America. America has over 1000 nuclear war= heads. If it wanted to, it could wipe the Middle East off the face of the E= arth. Instead it leaves the Middle East alone to its errors. This shows jus= t how good America is. Sometimes the little guy is the good guy; sometimes he isn=E2=80=99t. In th= is situation the big guy is much better than the little guy. The Muslims wa= nt to force everyone in the world to follow Sharia. Whereas American govern= ment is not trying to force the world to become Christian conservative. In this matter America deserves all the support that it can get. And I hope= that my ideas on this matter are useful to the American people involved in= this conflict.
