Who arms Israel?  There's your answer.  (Let's leave out our peaceful
occupation of Lebanon.)

Note that I by no means condone terrorism, but it is easy to understand the
well from which it springs.

Another thing that's wrong with ``Amurcans'' is their amazing ethnocentrism,
nationalisticly speaking.  The word ``American'' refers to someone born in
this hemisphere.  Very little pisses off Latin Americans more than this simple
word slip, by which the US helps to emphasize its hegemony in the West.

In Spanish, there is a special word for citizens of the US, estadounidense
(eh-sta-tho-ooni-then-se).
