Americans are held hostage in their own country. They do not know the difference between right or wrong, correct or incorrect, guilty or innocent … because that's the way they are programmed by their leaders! Three cheers to corporate media! Just obey them. Never ever question them. If you do so you will be branded a terrorist, from the loony left and so on. So watch out! If you talk or look different you will be persecuted or victimised in many shapes or forms. Australia is not falling behind in this regard, to get an idea how the western world is really going, click http://www.geocities.com/taxiacademy/

I'm held hostage in my own country? I can leave it at any time, protest in a non-violent way, vote to help change it, worship any religion I choose, wear any style of clothing I choose, etc... If this is being held hostage, fine. I don't see many Americans leaving the country in a desparate attempt to escape, or building milk carton rafts to float over to Cuba or something. This is just more "Tall Poppy" Syndrome from you. Attack the country that, for the moment, is on top. You believe your rabid anti-American propaganda, I'll believe the insiduous propaganda that the evil American corporate media (a large part of which is owned by other countries, such as your own Rupert Murdoch) feeds me.

Let me also say that I do respect MOST of what you say. You do go off the deep-end ro say stupid things from time to time, but our society needs people like you, along with people diametrically opposed to you, to achieve balance and help our culture evolve. So, while I do enjoy teasing and arguing with you, I am glad to have someone to argue with.

America is the most powerful nation-state in the world after the Cold-War, the world is no longer US vs USSR. The U.S. and their partners in NATO and the UN will have to fight the next cold war- Terrorism, so be it as long as people understand that not all Americans are bing held hostage in their homes, frague_ahmed...Not everyone is buying into this weak attempt to scare the American people.....wake up

you are an idiot! 89% of america is consisted of all immagrants from around the world. 11% native american indians. This is one country that has over 200 ethnic people that look different but get along , unlike these 3rd world countries that kill their own people because of religion. If Americans were held hostage, they were held hostage from their own original country with lackness of education and structure.....thats why they left.
so before you make a negative comment on america, look back in the history books on what america consists of. the first immagrants were were english, dutch and german.after that were the Irish, italians, asians and arabs.

so go back into your little bubble and be racist and ignorant.

from a first generation italian-american
