America misperceived

America misperceived

From Media Indonesia

I feel concerned lately by a wrong perception of America that
is spreading throughout society here. As I frequently stay in
America to accompany my children who are studying there, I can
tell you that the U.S. government doesn't take sides with
Christians. They open their doors to all religions and nations of
the world. And Islam is a religion that is developing
progressively there at present.

Therefore, I'm very concerned about the anti-America rhetoric
and acts carried out here. It is important to realize that the
Taliban government now only receives diplomatic recognition from
Pakistan. Most Afghans are now fighting for their country's
liberation from Taliban rule.
