Are you blind or something? Half the pictures are from China, Germany, and mostly Africa...and don't have anything to do with America. And if you didn't read, its pictures that changed the WORLD, not America.

...I'm surprised this one isn't in here. I couldn't find the original high quality version original...but you get the idea. It really gave perspective to the impact humans have on the planet...even though we think we are relatively minute in the individual sense.

No problem. And to the chick who said "hates America..." These pictures don't represent the reasons why the world hates America there just pictures that had a profound effect on people.

quite a few of them are pictures of war which america unrightfully brought upon the rest of the world.. i must be the only person on here to find it ironic that america is the only country ever to use a weapon of mass destruction (that mushroom cloud for you less smart kids) yet we use the idea that there are WODs somewhere in the mid east or n korea it as an excuse to attack innocent countries around the world.. and this is all perpetrated by the ignorance of people like you..

Sure some of those pics like the Vietnam one, the Atomic bomb, and the Gulf war one are ones that make people angry. But you can't compare the use of the A-bomb in 1945 to todays circumstances. If it wouldn't have been used who knows how much longer ww2 would have continued.
Vietnam was a big fuck up I agree but they didn't start that conflict and the Gulf war(s) are also a big mess. Anyways I don't think its right of you to just call everyone ignorant just because they aren't hating on America for what they did and didn't do. Its a thread on images that changed the world
not images that created hatred towards America.

your right i regreted that the second afteri posted.. but still the vietnam war was started because america's head of military leaked a false report to the president stating that they hda been attacked by a vietnamese boat while sitting in foregin waters.. when really that never happened, video recordings of phone conversations between robert macnamara and lyndon johnson asre avilable to the public, just no on e s4eems to notice this insane fact. watch the fog of war.,. v. v. cray world, i dont hate america.. i jnust hate how hypocritical americans are. also v. interesting that germany was in the worst economic decline ever after WW1 but somehow got money and hitler gained power? all of these funds were gained via the bank of international settlements which was, creepily, almost entirely funded by american investors in germany.

Some other dude argued the ignorance in your own post enough so i won't even bother. you just need to stop your slew of crappy accusations and attempted explanations of shit that happened before you were born. People don't hate America because we dropped the fucking A-bomb. People hate America cause of shit that has happened over the past 20-30ish years. AGHHhhh

i could start again, but there is no fighting stuborness, if i am so wrong, than why dont you throw some evidence at me, at least i am siting events in american history. did you know that every president this country has ever had has been related?/ that doesn't creep you out in the slightest. or the fact that JFK's assination has been classified by the CIA, yet you can go to the george washington university of declassified CIA documents and see how fucked up this country really is. god damn!! why doesn't anyone here read beyond CNN and fox?!?!

http://www.theforbiddenknowledge.com/hardtruth/uspresidentasmasons.htm there ya go.. being a freemason is highly enlightening to the inner functionings of the govt. every president was also a free mason. gwb was in skull and bones at yale which is a type of freemasonry.. its a cult.. and not like on hee.. they do rituals.. you wouldnt believe what goes on.

You know what's even more ironic? Most of the people that shit on America don't actually know anything other than what their media tells them. A lot have never been here and judge a whole country based on the entirity of it's president and maybe two people they've met.

I'm not saying there isn't a lot of dumbasses, but the people in Europe, Australia, and even Canada can be just as ignorant as Americans when it coems to terms of other people's way of life.

im from america, have lived in multiple places in this country and others, i dislike my country because of the destruction it has brought upon the rest of the world.. all of you are missing the point which is this.. half of those pictures are of people being killed in wars that though may not be the fault of the us government are on the hands based on their involvement. those pictures of black people being killed? oh yeah thats right ew were one of the last countries in the world to abolish slavery because greedy slave owners couldn't handle the idea of paying black people. the atomic bomb is the only weapon of mass destruction that has ever been used upon another country in a time of war and it was done by americans.. this isn't even rambling..!! How can we go about the world accusing countries of having weapons of mass destruction as a means to go to war when in reality we are the only country that has ever used a weapon of mass destruction.. it just seems irtonic that all you are saying to me is "lies and die hater" and all this shit merely because my opinions of the woprkings of our government are based on knowledge aquired throughout my college education and political science and relgion research. i could go on and on and all i will get in return is "FU, you know nothing.. clearly that is the case." i don't understand why americans are in such denial! the entire world hates you because you stupidly elected an icompetent president who says he is "above the law
(true quote), and that kids.. is a dictator.. thats reality. all of the americans i met abroad were ashamed of their country and far more educated and inculturated than someon e who has grown in a sheltered home all their life where their news intake does not exceed beyond the television or the local newspaper. the end.

that site is such a load of shit. " Bush is closely related to every European monarch on and off the throne -- including the King of Albania -- and has kinship with every member of Britain's royal family, the House of Windsor. He is a 13th cousin of Britain's Queen Mother, and of her daughter Queen Elizabeth and is a 13th cousin once removed of the heir to the throne, Prince Charles. Bush's family tree can be documented as far back as the early 15th century. He has a direct descent from Henry III and from Henry VIII's sister Mary Tudor, who was also the wife of Louis XI of France. He is also descended from Charles II of England"

Where the fuck does he come up wiht this shit?

and also.. I think anybody can draw random lines on maps and call it fact and PROOF

Now I know nothing about masonry, but are those lines supposed to outline a symbol of masonry? They just point ot random things and draw on the picture.

Also, I am not proud of all the actions of my country. I think america fails to understand the rest of the world, and for the most part, I don't really like our attitude. BUT, I can't point to bs websites created by some random dude (oh wait hes not random, his name is robert howard, so he must be 100% true). You know nothing about the guy that made this site, its on some free hosting website, come on. You tell people to not listen to fox news and cnn, but what the fuck do you listen to? This bs website that does not cite ANY OTHER AUTHORS??? Come on. No i don't know everything about hte gvt, in fact, i know very little about all the inside shit. But, I keep an open mind and am logical about what I think. Stop spewing your shit all over the place. You sound like fuckthepolice on his 9/11 rants

FIRST OF ALL, your example of weapons of mass destruction is just plain out WEAK. Maybe you didn't realize, but the world of 1946 was a LITTLE different than 2005. To equate the use of a weapon of mass destruction against a country fully willing to invade and annihilate the US to a terrorist act is absurd. IT WAS WORLD WAR. We used the bomb to stop the inevitable death of potentially millions of innocent people, both Americans and others around the world.
Fast forward to the 2000's. Bush inaccurately accuses Iraq of having WMD for shit reasons falsely linked to 9/11. IF THEY DID EXIST, the scenario is a little different than that in 1946. An attack these days would be essentially unprovoked....and catastrophic in these times. You need to stop talking about the "irony" of situations that happened during a world war and what is happening now.

And about that college education...let me quote you from another thread: "i wana go to CU boulder too but i am too poor and have to bide my time for another year at community college before i can transfer"

I don't know what kind of quality international perspective county college gives....actually i do know, cause its obvious in your arguments.

no.. the use of a weapon suchg as the a bomb on japanese army would hav been justified, american was using high flying fighter bombs at low flying levels on civilian communities, and that is terrorism.. despite the fact that we were at war.

I'm interested...where do you live? I could EASILY pull out some mistakes made by the past government. You are seriously taking examples from a hundred years ago and 60 years ago? Yo uweren't even alive. That's hardly a valid answer.

If you're going to be pissed off about the atomic bomb (I agree it was wrong to drop), then you might as well be more pissed off at Germany and Japan.

And slavery still exists today in many corners of the world. Compared to European countries, yes we were one of the last to abolish, but to Africa, South America, and Asia...we weren't.

You make yourself look like an idiot by calling Bush a dictator. Come on now, obviously that's not true. At the time of Bush's re-relection, not many people were giving us shit about him, but about 6 months after the re-relection the whole world starts hating America. An election is no reason to hate an entire country, especially when they dish out a lot of foreign aid. I know we could give a lot more, but there are a lot of good people in America that try and help, but YOU and the rest of the world generalize just like the ignorant Americans that think Canadians ride on dog sleds and French people all have striped shirts and moustaches.

Seriously, you need to get over yourself. You think you are some all enlightened person that is just above America. Yes we have done a lot of bad things, so have many other countries. That's why instead of moving out and sticking your tounge out makes you look like stupid. Obviously, you don't want to change it, so why do you even bother to say 5,000 times I moved out of America and then just lay down the criticism?

You're a skeptic, and a fucking retard. NO I do not go by everything the fucking news says.  You are one of those doom sayers who finds out a little bit of info and exploits it a ton by yelling random meaningless facts rather than understanding what it is you are talking about. As much as I hate our president and as much as I am distressed by the issues in this country at this time and the environment and so on I still love this country. I used to be like you, I used to think the US was crap. But you know what? Despite our problems it's a great fucking place to live.

Some of those are moving.
The picture of the man falling from the WTC was a restaurant worker from one of the top floors, look up "the falling man" on wikipedia. I can't imagine having to make a decision like he did.

And as for the "unjustified" atomic bombing of Japan, do you know how many millions of people, both American, and Japanese would have died in a land invasion? If any of you have relatives who fought in the pacific in World War II, and survived, if it were for the atomic bombs, odds are they wouldn't be here right now. They probably would have died on some beach, or town in Japan.
And yes, the US did bomb civilians with high explosive bombs, we even dropped incendiary bombs on them. Ever heard of total war? This isn't the revolutionary war, we don't march our troops out in straight lines to be mowed down anymore. You destroy the morale of civilians by killing other civilians, and then the remaining people get afraid, and stop supporting a war.

And yes, George Bush is a dictator...except wait, he's going to be out of power in 2008, and not due to a coup. Because of an election. You want to talk about dictators, try finding one who didn't get voted into power, could have potentially been voted out of power, and will definitely be out of power within 8 years.

My personal favorite picture that changed the world is the Earthrise taken from Apollo 8. Weird to think that in that picture, you are kind of seeing every person alive, on that side of the World, in 1968. And 6 months later, we'd be landing on the moon.

No the atomic bomb didn't end world war 2. The Japenese fear of Russian invasion was.

George Bush is not a dictator. Stalin was a dictator. Bush actually can't get everything he wants, he isn't a dictator. God I can't believe you people are actually stupid enough to throw words around like this.
