i just hope you have the courage to read this.
you mention Sri lanka and other places [and since your penchant for specifics has kept you from mentioning which places those might be, ill carry on] hate the US. you have a point AND an opinion but no real backable facts. no place you're coming from. how do you know they hate the US? there's your belief blackhole.
how do i know they dont? because i have been there. and people there have no time for US or even their own politics which again have no animosity towards the US. they would much rather deal with survival issues than bother with policies, boundaries, race, religion and such. [except the LTTE, which is mateiral for another book]
they are perhaps the kindest if not the most insighful people i have met.
-i know of teenagers who'd lost limbs through landmines years ago, now helping with the relief operations.
-i have seen pictures in indian/tamil newspapers of ravaged natives helping westerners locate their loved ones.
-the beeb a few days back even broadcast an interview with a western couple who were pulled out of the sea by fishermen.knowing you, you'd say, "western could be anyone, they still hate the Americans". correct. but thats the difference between your value system and one which is a few thousand years more mature.
now to affirm my geekiness, here are some links for you.

truth is, that when the earth starts shaking, mankind thinks of survival and not of boundaries. and that goes for you too. i know you mean well but it saddens me that your like would rather mouth off trash first, revel in your ignorance and self-righteous jizz and pick the pieces, if ever, later. all this when you can do better. i know that the US can and is helping immensely with the efforts, but what takes the piss is that you let that self-congratlatory tone soil someone else's credibility.
im glad i have some great american friends who still give me faith.
im not quite sure where i got under your skin, but then i thought you have a sense of humour! mi bad. for a guy who thinks that you could lace someone's food with poison is funny...nuff said.
once you get off your perch and your head out of your arse you could engage your brain before you open your mouth.....or do you need a diagram?
