I JUST hate to stick my NECK out!!
nwtk, Tillerson's release of his "Deal of the Century" has got the world's peoples hating each other again. Here's the article on RT:
http://www.rt.com/news/412430-lavrov-jerusalem-move-tillerson/
I reminded them of "The Merry Minuet" by the Kingston Trio:
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=bp6dsKleGpU
"They're rioting in Africa
They're starving in Spain
There's hurricanes in Florida and Texas needs rain
The whole world is festering with unhappy souls
The French hate the Germans
The Germans hate the Poles
Italians hate Yugoslavs
South Africans hate the Dutch
And I don't like anybody very much!
But we can be tranquil and thankful and proud
For man's been endowed with a mushroom shaped cloud
And we know for certain that some lovely day
Someone will set the spark off and we will all be blown away
They're rioting in Africa
There's strife in Iran
What nature doesn't do to us will be done by our fellow man"
"...we've been very lucky with that last number. It was written in 1949, and due to our consistent foreign policy, we haven't had to change any of the lyrics..."
Tunnel vision.

Referring to the comments at the end of the article. Lots of US hate. Just another indicator that we should not be involved there but for being willing to help defend Israel should hostilities break out or appear to be coming. I've never liked the idea of the US brokering peace btwn parties in the area. But then again . .
We spent over a trillion dollars on protecting the flow of ME oil and only used a very small percentage of it (less than 10%). And what does this have to do with anything? I don't know. It just popped into my little brain. Or maybe it's the sort of thing which make us think we have a right to nose around in their business. On a subconscious level, it's related.

Well, for one, it is no longer spice. It is oil.
Muslims around the world will never trust the U.S. I don't believe they ever have. The U.S. was the first ally of Israel, and underwrote it's status as a nation-state.
And beyond that, all Muslims know that leaders, and of course, industrialists, of the U.S. and the West, attempt to use and manipulate them, for their black gold. (Douglas Feith is considered a Zionist. And there was Paul Bremer and the atrocities due to American occupation. And that explains a lot of the anger right there.)
And not just Muslims. Most of the peoples of the world distrust America and Americans.
Evangelicals and neo conservative have a lot of 'splaining to do.

nwtk, you said the commentators on RT are mostly anti-U.S. That is because they blame Trump and the U.S. for putting the world in jeopardy. And they would be correct.
But Colin Kaperneck took a knee last weekend.

Some on OPP have a reading comprehension deficit, Mental blocks, and or its the worlds worse disease Cognitive Dissonance?
I can post the receipts for what I post about the founders, and I will read comments saying I am the traitor.
I will post the link to the 1783 King George's Treaty and receive no comments for who the victor was. Strange minds on OPP.
Also, several of my post were deleted.
