And it's not that Americans can't grasp what Iran is about. The fact is that the region is rather savage and beyond logical rationale. Civilzed people choose to separate themselves from people like that.

here is where i disagree. just because the west has money dont make it civilized. i personally think its beyond logical rationale, that america is the richest country in the world, yet its citizenry is so ming boggingly stupid and ignorant. i dont think america has the moral high ground to point fingers at anybody. of course that doesnt excuse the Iran is Gangstaz of the world.

then I heard it's not about how much you make, but how much you spend

Oh no doubt. America has done as much if not more dirt than any other country in existance (I can't keep score). And anybody that thinks having money qualifies them as civilized is a fool as well. But he's saying that Americans can't comprehend something that Ted Koppel tells us on the news night after night which is an ignorant statement in itself because he's generalizing. So in the same breath he's calling Americans idiots yet he's swagger jackin and probably pays taxes here. I just wanted to point that out to him.
I think the fact is a lot of what is reported is so centered around violence (and yes, the media focuses on that of course) that people tend to glaze over and don't even care to distinguish one thing from the next because that's all we're ever shown. I know it's reality and people shouldn't hide from it, but I for one don't care to watch what fucking Ted Koppel is telling me night after night because the shit's depressing.

REGIME MOB 510:
america is a great country, around its edges, its when you goto the center of the country, you find out that the red states philosophy on america really pushes the states back from being the good global leader we should become. there are so many ignorant people in america, that eventually will lead to america's downfall. what really needs to happen, is to stop spending money on wars and weapons, and start spending money on humanitarian things. The US has the power to turn the world into a beautiful place that any of us have yet to see. and if you really love your country and your people (which incluse people from around the world) you should be worried about making the world a better place, instead of killing god's children and trying to have the fattest bank account after all the blood is shed. to be honest, there is so much corruption, i dont know if we'll ever succeed, but thats the problem, too many chiefs, and not enough indians.
