They Hate This Country
By Mark Sashine
A law professional had drafted, designed and polished the Patriot Act, that XXIst-Century mirror of the Stalin's decrees of the 1930s. That person tried hard to please his bosses. That was his job –to please his bosses. At least that was how he understood that. And he unleashed the evil into the world blindly the same way hundreds of the Gestapo low- level officers did that. He disgraced himself and his profession. I think he hates this country.
A politician lies and provokes wars. Those wars are illegal, criminal and dangerous. We kill lots of innocent people and create deadly enemies throughout the world but that politician does not give a damn. I think he hates this country.
A televangelist monopolizes God. He claims in a sacrilegious fervor that he and only he can speak to God. He dares to state that God is only here. He makes us an enemy of the Humanity. I think he hates this country.
A columnist openly discloses the name of the CIA operative thus endangering her life and other people as well. Not only is he not punished, but he gloats on that, comes openly out, defies people and gets even more money for it. I think he hates this country.
A group of dishonest and crooked individuals try to take advantage of the political situation and our unstable leadership for their own profit. They talk nonsense to the government, cook the books and instigate paranoia. They constantly promote fear and talk about the 'war of civilizations' . They use the country's resources for their own personal benefit and openly abuse the people of the country. They are marauders.
I think they hate this country.
We all know who those people are. We see them every day. They don't hide. I love this country. They hate it. Choose your side.
Authors Bio: Mark Sashine is an engineer and a writer. Working hard in trying to love and understand the new country he has to live in.
I THINK WHAT THESE PEOPLE HATE IS THE FACT THAT DEMOCRACY MUST BE UNIVERSAL TO WORK--THERE CANNOT BE MULTIPLE "CLASSES". THEY DON'T LIKE THE THOUGHT (OR FACT) THAT THEY ARE NO BETTER THAN THE POOR SINGLE MOTHER, THE MINORITY, THE DISABLED, AND NO MORE ENTITLED TO THE BLESSINGS OF AMERICA THAN ANYONE ELSE. EQUALITY REALLY BOTHERS THEM--HENCE, THEY MUST DESTROY THIS COUNTRY SO THEY CAN HOG IT.
