Hell Hole.

Yes indeed 'Americans' are special they know that. I have seen on TV how the men are square jawed heroes, in fact the US is full of heroes, and the women are slender with beautiful looks. 
How do they, the citizens of the US, equate this image, to what they see in the mirror, and what they see in the streets, in the fattest land in the world. 
Abu Grhaib , hell hole coming to light, gives credence to the truth of this article. 
I think Abdul is correct in his belief that US society is full of fear, I have thought that for quite some time. 
Fear and heroes what a heady mix in the controlling the masses. I believe also it is fear that explains the Christian fundamentalists support for the terrible actions perpetrated on the perceived enemies of the US, “God approves! The preacher man told me”, the fear being at some level of the psych, “Have we become the world monster, maybe the worlds pariah ?” “Hell no we're Americans”. 
Is this comment US phobia? Yes, a phobia of a ruthless nation that will stop at nothing to enforce its will on the world, it is easy to become paranoid when you watch the actions of the US in recent years.
