I was talking with one of my coworkers the other day about this. She told me that one of the previous foreign teachers who taught here was surprised that chinese people don't wear the stuff they did in Hero, or do that kind of thing with their hair. He was also surprised that chinese people smile (they don't in the movies), that they laugh, that they make jokes, amoung other things.
Um, no. In fact, as soon as I read the "war for oil" line, that's when I started snickering. Much of the rest followed the same vein of tired leftist catch-phrases
Hide your head in the sand if you want, but that doesn't change the fact that most of that stuff is true.
Apparently, he doesn't really understand the concept of war.
You wouldn't be saying that if it was your cities that were being fire bombed/nuked.
Last time I checked, I have a pretty damn good idea of how badly a lot of people on this planet have it,
Yet you support a foreign policy that, in reality, only makes things worse.
EDIT: And Bob, if you are looking for stuff in the non-US media that says nothing but good things about US policies, you won't find it.
