Nope, I haven't. Although JG Wenworth is well known for helping the poor and the needy. Not!
I do not know how the American people can just sit back and turn a blind eye to what their government is doing around the world.
Sadly, ...it's much easier than you think!
It's easy for you & I, who are outside of the USA to fume with rage, ...however, something we have to keep in the forefront of our minds is that information about the USA and what she does around the world is largely filtered out for Americans at home. Heck, they're barely even getting news from right within the country itself. If they don't know what's going on, how can they be expected to do something about it.
Every day though, more & more Americans are taking the time to inform themselves. Just look at this very board. I can remember it was just a short time ago when people were freaking out that I or anyone else dared to post a political topic or even dared to suggest that America was not the rosy, peachy, bastion of democracy and human rights she puts herself forth to be. Disclosures of hard truths were met with accusations of "Anti-Americanism". Heck, I can recall suggesting a book be read and the post was deleted... for recommending a book written by a former member of the State Dept. We've come a long way! And I think Americans have come a long way from just a few years ago. The fog is lifting, ...slowly but surely. Don't be so hard on your countrymen. They're playing with a handicap that you and I are not burdened with. Had we had the same blinders placed on us, who is to say it wouldn't have taken us longer to start figuring things out. Considering the burden they've had to bear, ...I think they're progressing pretty well, ...although there are still some that really make you want to give them a good shake at times.
