LOL sunbeam, many of our citizens care more about how cold the beer is than what the government do ... australia is a unique country where the people are concerned... we are rarely concerned.. LOL.. honestly.. and its just my opinion based on living here for 41 years lol... this is what I think .. and there is no offense at any individuals intended at all. you know we generally love our u.s brothers and sisters but sometimes we wonder what planet you came from LOL...
I would say most australians believe the us government conducted the 911 attacks. We are not blinded by patriotism, by gulability, americans want so badly to believe that theyre government is trustworthy that they allow that to cloud their intellect.. over here... we see all the pieces of that puzzel put together, and the outcome is so obvious it makes us smack our heads and go " how the hell do they not see this"..
Most australians believe that the us government pulls all the strings (or tires to) of most other governments around the world
Most australians believe that the us government is the devil incarnate LOL
Most australians believe that america as a whole, not individually, is arogant and self serving and doesnt give a crap about anyone else unless its going to further their own causes. The u.s superiority complex wears thin on this side of the planet..
Most aussies believe that we are and have been visited and that the US government is the leader in covering it up ... other countries have started releasing their ufo files to the public.. but of course the us wont because then they will get hung out to dry by their citizens..
We have a saying here for things that go on in the usa..... "only in america".. and then we roll our eyes LOL.. if you guys could just step back and see your country the way everyone else sees it, you would roll your eyes too ...
Just my observations from the people i talk to, from the news, tv, newspapers.. its a general feeling..
