"Why does America always act as if they were the police of the world?," Barikatul Hikmah, a 20-year-old student at the Syarif Hidayatullah University asked Hughes.
Lailatul Qadar, a petite 19-year-old student wearing colorful headscarves, added: "It's Bush in Iraq, Afghanistan, Palestine and maybe it's going to be in Indonesia, I don't know. Who's the terrorist? Bush or us?"
You know I actually believe that if Karen Hughes were to go to meet with women in a neutral setting in America she would hear the very same points being raised. People are not stupid! (With the exception of the morons who voted for George Bush TWICE!) They are noticing that this administration is filled with the worst kind of hypocrites. We preach peace and yet declare war on a whim. We bully the rest of the world and want to be excused because we have only the best of intentions. The world knows us for what we are, terrorists!
What else could we be callled? We threaten and abuse people in other countries. We bomb their homes, kill their children, and imprison and humiliate their men. We impose our will on them and then levy sanctions when they do not bend to our will.
What is it that Pogo said? "We have met the enemy, and he is us."
