You are actually thinking of Somali thugs dragging soldiers before the CNN cameras in Mogadishu. None of the heros murdered in Rwanda were American soldiers. They were largely Belgian and various African nations. Because the world was not paying attention, there were virtually no cameras in attendance to show off in front of.

Sorry that your question is so vague. This is a world wide site. I am in the Philippines now and travel all over the world. Different cultures place different values on being a farmer.\n American and Canadian farmers have a high social status whereas farmers in Somalia are not in any way respected. So it depends on the society. \n Any ones status can be improved by hard work, honesty and dedication.

The English isn't right for what I believe your question is about. No. The Americans need to leave that country at once. What they were isn't what they are now.  They are invaders now.  Every person there has little rights as they cannot walk about or go to where they would. Since movement is restricted.  There are no civil rights of the people. You can thank all the parties that fight and do not fight for peace among men and women of all kinds.

Americans didn't immigrate from 99% of anywhere.  Basing your question on a false statment will net false answers.

Amen to that.  I don't understand why we have to change to suit people moving to America but then we are STILL asked to change when going to another country.  wtf.

How come you did not mention your own nationality? Anyway, I've lived in some African countries and really liked the environments - very friendly and stress free. I've also lived in the USA and was in fact very disappointed - very stressful and hostile society (despite the diversity), especially down south in Texas.

because there are  a lot of races in the US. people come from all over the world to live and have a life here.

Because it is a lot harder for Africans to get here since they have an ocean to swim across, not just a river and a border to jump on foot.  Also, they are truly more poor than Mexicans and Central Americans, so they don't have any money to even attempt to cross over illegally, whereas the Mexicans and Central Americans do, even the poor ones can scrape a few pesos and limperas together to buy food and bribes on their way up.

It depends on the country.  People want to move to the USA, so it is to keep them out.  If you live in a bad country, like when there was East Germany, they had to build a wall to keep people in.

To make America happy to see their ally so rewarded for helping them in the Cold War against Russia and the hot war against North Korea.   Some Americans would even be happy to see Europe weakened and morally corrupted by it.  All the other muslims east and south of Turkey would also be delighted to have the door thus opened into Europe for them via Turkey.  Much the same thing happened in South Africa when the blacks wee allowed to take over : the door to Africa's most prosperous country was opened to hordes of other blacks, especially Nigerians, who now constitute 500,000 of Johannesburg's population : and they are NOT working in the mines!

I love the US thats why I came here. But some people move here and hate the US at the same time, so if they hate the US then they should move back where they come from.

If you don't talk to the power brookers in a chaos filled defacto non nation, then who do we talk to??? Somalia is a very screwed up place. We tried to help those people and got run out of the nation. We don't really support any faction. We just want you to stop being pirates and a terriorst hangout in a strategic location in the world.

There have been "home-grown terrorists" in America almost as long as the continent has been settled by Europeans.\n\nAt first they occured only sporadically, and the damage they did was mostly to wildlife and nature. We now remember them as "trappers" and did had a devastating effect on the natural balance of the American environment.\nWith immigration numbers rising, they became more numerous and extended their terrorist activities towards the native people, then called "Red Indians", but now acknowledged as Native Americans (even though their own origin lay in Asia). After a while of private terror, the new USA and her army joined in and created an early system of state-sponsored terrorism. This was so effective that most of the Native Americans were wiped out.\n\nParallel to this development a large number of private terror gangs established themselves in the so-called "Wild West" as guns for hire who would terrorise anyone regardless of colour, ethnicity, creed and status as long as they were payed for it or gained profit from it in other ways.\n\nSince the late 19th century these gangs also operated beyond the US borders, first in Mexico and Canada, then also in Central and South America and further afield. In 1898 the state joined in once more with the American-Spanish War, sending bands of terrorising shock troops to the Spanish colonies of Cuba and the Philippines. \nEver since terrorists "home-grown in the USA" have brought fear and violence to many parts of the world, either as individuals and small goups operating for private interests, or as large organised military bodies known as the US Marine Corps and the US Army.\n\nFor the past 60 years a new dimension has entered that frame: US lead and financed undercover operations, organised by the CIA and other state agencies. These involve Americans as well as large numbers of foreigners under US control.\nOne of the most recent of these groups is "Al Qaeda", which was formed by the CIA as a Muslim spearhead against the Russians occupying Afghanistan. They recruited fighters in the Middle East, trained, armed and financed them and selected their leader, a Saudi Arabian multi-millionaire and ex-playboy named Osama bin Laden. They even developed the idea of the modern "jihad", the holy war for political purposes, and the books about it were written and printed at the University of Nebraska. (I saw them myself during the 1980s in Pakistan and Afghanistan.)\nThe group is still under CIA control and by now one of their "black operations" which do offically not exist and are even kept secret from Congress and other political bodies, except the top brass at the White House. They have been used successfully to create a desire for war in the majority of US citizens, to create an excuse for invading and occupying Afghanistan, and partially for the war against Iraq and the continuing illegal occupation of that country.\n\nIt is also known that both CIA and FBI use undercover and sting operations quite regularly, setting up illegal and terrorist groups with taxpayers' money in order to lure gullible idiots into them for participation. Whenever it suits the political leadership, one of these groups is busted and sold to the gullible public as "a great success in the fight against crime and terrorism". The few stupid run-alongs are tried and disappear into jails for the rest of their miserable lives, while the organisers move on to do the same thing all over again elsewhere, spending more taxpayers' money on it. \nAll this together makes the USA the home of 90% of the world's terrorists.

The United States is a pluralisitc society.  I would argue there is no such thing as an 'average' American in any ethnic or cultural sense.  I'm sure there are those Americans, by virtue of racism or their own bad experiences, who harbor negative feelings about immigrants of any background.  America has had a mixed history of racial interaction, but, by in large, I have found Americans to be a tolerant people.  In most major cities you can also find large groups of ethnic Iranians to ease your transition.  There will always be bigots, and terrorism has focused the attention of bigots on people from the Middle East, but bigots are the minority.  You will likely find ignorance to be much more frustrating than maliciousness.  For example, most Americans don't know that Iranians are generally Persian, not Arab.  If you have patience, I think you can overcome these difficulties and make a successful, free life in America if you so choose.
