The US is not part of the intolerance ongoing there? They did not create it but by supporting the Saudis, and destabilizing secular states they are very responsible for the stuff that goes on.
For the wast majority of Americans the racism discussion is over., There could be subcultures but very few people think they are superior to x race because of their skin tone.

If you read more about comrade Carlos and learned more about his world view, you would be angry too. The guy is total garbage.
How does the earth taste with your head so far underground tbh?
Probably not. I'm sure you're overreacting.
No they aren't part of the intolerance in that part of the world. The destabilization of the secular nations was due to the withdrawal of our security forces in the region thanks to Obama and Kerry. Once we left, isis was created and the rest is history.
Thursday can't get here fast enough. I prefer to talk basketball in all honesty. However, this issue with Carlos really got under my skin.
No, not at all. You're just uninformed and ignorant.
Hanging out with mine workers gives you a better perspective on race than reading click bait bs journalism.
Really? Who supported the rebels of Syria? Why did the US support the Libyan nutters?
Well, post some relevant quotes and inform us all.
I'll wait.
ISIS was created by withdrawing from Iraq after a 10 year occupation? Should we have just colonized Iraq? You do know they are all former Baathists from Sadaam's army flying a different flag, right?
John Carlos is an American hero. That's why Pop brought him in to inspire this Spurs team, to show them there is more to life than basketball es and bills. Just because you're a right-wing racist xenophobe doesn't mean that most of your fellow citizens don't see the truth --> John Carlos == American hero.
I am fairly conservative and I do not get all the hate for John Carlos. He defied authority through a peaceful demonstration, using the means at hand, which is something folks from Baltimore and St Louis could learn from.
If you read his book you would think very differently of him.
Still waiting on those quotes.
LOL! You're so stupid. Our commanding generals on the ground pleaded with the administration to postpone the withdrawal or at least stage it slowly before turning it back over to the Iraqis. No, instead Obama ignored those recommendations and ordered a full and complete withdrawal. Leaving the Iraqis to deal with the insurgents on their own. Obama knew exactly what would happen and he did it anyway. The result is the chaos and refugee crisis through out the middle east and Europe. Obama owns this mess because he failed to listen to the military commanders on the ground who knew the local conditions better than anyone else. This is fairly common knowledge if you are interested in seeking out the truth.
Sorry to disappoint you but John Carlos is still no American hero. He despises America. I wish he would have left his legacy with the 68 Olympic protest. As I've stated many times, that's not my issue with him. I would be his biggest cheerleader if that's all he stood for. However, his books reveal a more sinister world view that is filled with anti American hate and a commitment to do all he can to transform our nation from a judeo Christian free market society to a European socialist model with radical changes that would benefit African Americans at the expense of all other citizens. He's basically Louis Farrakahn. He's no hero to most reasonable minded people.
Like most sane Americans, you'd probably see him in the same light as MLK, John Lewis, and other Civil Rights leaders --> Hero
Bush agreed to the withdrawal when the Iraqis said they wanted the Americans gone.

There's a right-wing echo chamber that you live in, and then there is reality:
Let me guess, wikipedia is a left-wing conspiracy website.The U.S.–Iraq Status of Forces Agreement (official name: Agreement Between the United States of America and the Republic of Iraq On the Withdrawal of United States Forces from Iraq and the Organization of Their Activities during Their Temporary Presence in Iraq) was a status of forces agreement (SOFA) between Iraq and the United States, signed by President George W. Bush in 2008. It established that U.S. combat forces would withdraw from Iraqi cities by June 30, 2009, and all U.S. combat forces will be completely out of Iraq by December 31, 2011. The pact required criminal charges for holding prisoners over 24 hours, and required a warrant for searches of homes and buildings that were not related to combat. U.S. contractors working for U.S. forces would have been subject to Iraqi criminal law, while contractors working for the State Department and other U.S. agencies would retain their immunity. If U.S. forces committed still undecided "major premeditated felonies" while off-duty and off-base, they would have been subjected to an undecided procedures laid out by a joint U.S.-Iraq committee if the U.S. certified the forces were off-duty.
