I have no objection to anti-Americanism per se; it's the media's exploitation of anti-American sentiment to either advance their agenda or simply increase viewership with sensationalism. The presence of Blackwater operatives, even if true, should be no more galling than the presence of Marines or other US troops. This is a classic case of missing the forest for the trees. Sana:

This knee jerk anti-Americanism needs to stop. Its tragic how some of our mainstream media org are so hell bent in spreading the panic further, even though there have been no well-sourced reports. But then again its always about sensationalizing everything. Btw love the revamped site! Much needed dose of sanity! This knee jerk anti-Americanism needs to stop.
