]Somalia! Is possible to be the best of Africa

I know that the majority of the EVE community is based in USA, people who hate the somalian pirates and also the somalian people (see black hawk down).

Hello,

I am curios about how the EVE comunity land on the Cpt Phillips movie. EVE is know about having very intelligent people doing all level of pvp activities. Also, we.. love pirates. Just because they are intelligent and beware of all of the game mechanics.

I know that the majority of the EVE community is based in USA, people who hate the somalian pirates and also the somalian people (see black hawk down). I DO NOT wanna take conclusion over what is bad or wrong, I'm just really curios about how people feel about the movie, what's the general feeling about the somalians whom live in USA, etc.

Thank You.

Just a note. I don't think most americans "hate" the somalian people, I think we're ignorant about them. The US government's policies (for better or worse) are focused strongly on international trade, and somali pirates being in the news doesn't exactly get them good press.

The present objective is to declare that "terrists" are in control of Somalia and use that as an excuse to expand military involvement there in the long term.

You see there is oil under Somalia, but the oil companies don't want to confront the land owners (the tribes) that own it.

We can't have Somalis benefiting from their own oil. It's bad enough that the Norwegians and Venezuelans got to profit from their own oil and we can't have this happen you see. Oil execs need to keep those huge incomes up because the American government is not bought out cheaply.

So the long term goal is to further extremism in Africa (I was told about Libya and Egypt by an "insider" 2 years before it happened) and then in the chaos, install governments more friendly to oil companies so all that great oil rich land can be robbed from the owners.

The owners will probably be equated with "plantation owners of the American South" or something or be called "landlords" or some other word that has a negative connotation so Boobus Americanus, only partially paying attention (those semi-AFK people) will automatically side with the narrative of the state.

Not in British English it isn't.
But let's not end a tradition of US bastardising the English language.

As for the OP... Eve is a game, Captain Philips is a film, you would be wise not to attribute characteristics of either of them to a nationality of people who exist in the real world.

Why would Americans hate Somalis? We don't hate Iraqis, Afghanis, Bosnians or Serbians, Panamanians, Yugoslavs, Colombians, Dominicans, Vietnamese, Koreans, Russians, Italians, Japanese, or Germans, so why would Somalis be special?

There's no sense in hating your wartime enemies. You accomplish the goals of the war (or not), and then you're done. Hating them just makes it harder to be done with the war after it's over. It's especially counterproductive to decide you hate the civilians of your enemy countries.

Just to stay in line with the sweeping statement control, I know for a fact that there are US citizens that do in fact hate all the above mentioned sub populations of the planet earth

The most tacit and passive-aggressive form of hatred of "outlanders" you will find in America is grounded in a thing called American Exceptionalism

(it's also destroying America as people think they are free just for being Americans, while technically and logically, they are not)

Sure, but that's not an American thing, that's just a matter of there being bigots everywhere.

Oh look, another troll thread about US aggression by the people who colonized and blew half the world to hell twice.

Here, have a holiday.

Here is a short list of american aggression since WW2 https://wikispooks.com/wiki/US_Bombing_campaigns_since_1945

You take that list seriously when even Wikipedia has to announce "Wikipedia bias

Substantial bias can be seen in many parts of the Wikipedia articles (e.g. no mention of the successful World Court action by Nicaragua against the US). Partly this is simply concealment of the overall picture in the mass of detail. Note that the article is rated as of 'low importance'. Other clues such as the talk page confirm the difficulty faced by editors attempting to restore objectivity to the page in the face of a bevy of editors beholden to the Official Narrative. " on the bottom of the page? Even Wiki is saying this is bullshit.

This may get as shock to you, but Cpt P is not a movie.

English was a bastard language before we got our hands on it you. Get off your Queen's English High Horse. I love British comedy, but let me tell you what; British English has extremely sloppy versions itself....and trust me, I am pretty sure I have heard mounds more of dirty English variants than you have

please tell me the ones that are incorrect.
are you denying american involvement in backing insurgents in Nicaragua? In terrorist outrages against Cuban hotels and civilian airliners? In bombing cambodia and loas? invading grenada or panama?
the rights and wrongs of these actions can be discussed i suppose but to deny they took place (apart from 1 or 2) seems a bit surreal
