....White America is afraid of Black America because it knows it has every reason to fear retaliation for the brutality it has treated them with. White men lived in fear once of Black men raping their white women....at the slightest hint or look from a Black man, or the claim that a Black man had been too familiar or not servile enough, white men would ruch to judgement and thousands of Black men were lynched on no grounds whatsoever....it's easy to see why Wghites suspected Blacks, because they knew THEY had raped countless Black women and knew they deserved to be "punished" in like manner.

...Most of America's fear comes from its realiziation that it has treated people in ways that have raised feelings of revenge in their victims...America fears Cuba because America knows it has abused the Cuban people, first by emplying a strong-arm dictator and then because we have attacked them. Yet we claim Cuba is a threat to US...when we have been the threat to Cuba all along.

...Cuba deals with all Western countries and has said numerous times it is willing to normalize relations with us...but we won;t do it and our people are convinced the Cubans will come to get us. How silly can you get? Do we forget that for all the time Castro has been in power he's never managed to force us to give Guantanamo Naval Base back to Cuba? What kind of threat can Castro pose to the United States, what liklihood that he plans an attack if he can't even get us off his island?

But we know we've wronged Cuba so we fear her....like employers once feared their workers and the Union movement...because they knew they were cheating their workers and abusing them and using groups of thugs against them, so they had every reason to fear retaliation, because THEY knew they had it coming...they knew how THEY would act if anyone did those kinds things to them.

Same with fear of Jews....Christians KNEW they'd abused Jews for centuries and naturally feared retaliation and revenge...same with Islam today.

The politics of fear works becauae Americans know damn well they have treated poorer people around the world in such ways that those people can easily justify themselves in striking back...and it will never stop. There will be no peace down this road because through our fear we keep reacting in ways that will only increase the threat...and we'll become more and more afraid.

All those bumper stickers saying "Fear THIS"...or "don't mess with America", are all prompted by fear, not by courage. Americans are terrified and their government has learned this is the best shortcut to control and conformity...we can even give away our civil liberties if only someone can scare us enough.
