George Washington is a slave master bastard.

“[The Father of our Country must henceforth be known as] George Washington the slave master bastard Founding Father.”

- Leonard Jeffries , July 1991.


The U.S. is guilty of genocide.

“The U.S. is even more guilty [of genocide] than Pol Pot. . . . It was a good thing that the U.S. ‘lost’ in Vietnam. . . . If the U.S. and their South Vietnamese stooges had won, South Vietnam would have been yet another place for American companies to move to. Hundreds of thousands more American workers would have lost their jobs. . . . Under no circumstances, therefore, should we ever support the U.S. government or believe what it says.” [Emphasis in the original.]

- Grover Furr


U.S. patriotism equals white supremacy.

“U.S. patriotism is inseparable from imperial warfare and white supremacy. U.S. flags are the emblem of the invading war machine in Iraq today. They are the emblem of the occupying power. The only true heroes are those who find ways that help defeat the U.S. military.”

- Nicholas DeGenova , 2003.


Comparing America to Iran.

“[American civil] liberties have been systematically corroded [sic] to the point that the combined effects of the Homeland Security Act, the USA Patriot Act, and the specter of Patriot Act II are devastating and create political conditions worse than those found in the Islamic Republic [of Iran].”

- Hamid Dabashi


Saying the Pledge of Allegiance is strange.

“It seems very strange to pledge loyalty to a scrap of cloth representing a corrupt nation.”

- Dana Cloud


America is evil.

“Columbus’s actions launched an era of modem colonialism, rape, pillage, genocide, cultural destruction, slavery, economic and environmental devastation.”

- Marc Becker


The victims of 9/11 deserved their fate.

“Let’s get a grip here, shall we? True enough, [the victims of 9/11] were civilians of a sort. But innocent? Give me a break. If there was a better, more effective, or in fact any other way of visiting some penalty befitting their participation upon the little Eichmanns inhabiting the sterile sanctuary of the twin towers, I’d really be interested in hearing about it.”

- Ward Churchill


The U.S. is a bad nation.

“By any objective standard, the United States has become the most aggressive power in the world, the greatest threat to peace, to national self determination, and to international cooperation.”

- Noam Chomsky


Rooting for the Iraqis.

“I have a confession. I have at times, as the war has unfolded, secretly wished for things to go wrong; wished for the Iraqis to be more nationalistic; to resist longer. Wished for the Arab world to rise up in rage. Wished for all the things we feared would happen. I’m not alone. A number of serious, intelligent, morally sensitive people who oppose the var have told me they had identical feelings.”

- Gary Kamiya


Blaming America.

“America, America. What did you do — either intentionally or unintentionally — in the world order, in Central America, in Africa where bombs are still blasting? America, what did you do in the global warming conference when you did not embrace the smaller nations? America, what did you do two weeks ago when I stood at the world conference on racism, when you wouldn’t show up? Oh America, what did you do?”

- Amos Brown , September 17, 2001.
