Let me act as the devil's advocate here.
Just because of the policies of the last few governments of a single nation in the western hemisphere, you are condemning the whole of North and South America, which i believe has been the most innovative and progressive continent in the last two hundred or so years.
The funny thing is that if you were offered a green card right now, you be off running of to that same "Columbus' mistake" of a nation without having any second thoughts!
Lets not be hypocrites and accept that Columbus' mistake has been one of the better things which has occured in human history.
I wonder what had happend if Columbus had not discovered america. We'd still be traveling by horse carriages, no aeroplanes, no going to the moon, no computers, internet, submarines, radio, tv, stock exchanges or anything. Sajjad

Dont see only the darker aspect of things Sajjad. Everything has a positive aspect alongwith its negatives

Hey guybrush,
You put me in surprise by replying this post in serious way I was not expected to have reply like thisâ¦â¦â¦.
Whatever I wrote in above paragraph it was only a joke. I actually took above paragraph from Urdu book named URDU KI AKHRE KETAB written by IBNAY INSHAH (a famous writer of Urdu) and I just translated it in to English.
Anyway now I have to reply your postâ¦everyone has different thought/views e.g. different people see half glass of water in different way, some say it is half empty and some would reply that it is half full. It is actually our way of thinking how we observe the things and what result we take.
Now come to America, I think you didnât read the history of America. There were only black people in the America when Columbus discovered it and then white people went there and took over the Land. As for as green card is concern, my answer â green card is my footâ. I had chance to go there but I refused.
There are certain things which you donât know whatever you mention above to support the America, most of them not discovered by American. Letâs talk about the moon, Apollo two was made by a German scientist.
If somebody appears in court as a defender, judge will not see what he achieved in his life he just have interest of the nature of his crime and would give his decision according to his crime. If you are representative of America in the court of justice with relation of his War Crime (Iraq, Afghanistan etc) there you canât defend America by saying âif America doesnât exist. We'd still be traveling by horse carriages, no aeroplanes, no going to the moon, no computers, internet, submarines, radio, tv, stock exchanges or anything. I guess we'd still would be living in medieval timesâ
If somebody presents the QARARDAD in United Nation against the Israel, America uses his power of veto there to reject the QARARDAD. According to the role of justice "to help the criminal itself a crime". What happened in Abu Grab Jail with the Iraqi POW I cant described the cruelty of american here if i do than i have to spend years to write.
Its the America who is the main reason of terrorism in the world.
Americans are enemy of Islam/Muslims and how we can call them friends.
