Innocence?!
Does Martin Amis really believe that the US was ever INNOCENT? Funny how America keeps losing its innocence every decade or two.
'Without a doubt, Islamists do work themselves up into a state of anti-Americanism by contemplating the "depravity" of Western life: the materialism, the sexual promiscuity, the "looseness" of our women, the indulgence in drugs and alcohol and the general lack of moral fiber.'
So do a lot of Americans. The home-grown US fundamentalists love America in theory; they hate it in practice.
