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.
