It is quite surprising that this news should be carried by VOA of all channels.

I am surprised that such a high number belive that the USA had a hand in the atrocity.

It is true that the image of the USA has suffered in the last few yewars. The sometime beligerent and heavy handed attitude of the Bush administration has not helped the cause..

However, time heals wounds and erases many a memory. Look at Vietnam or Libya.. Once US enemies, now friends.

Perhaps the new government will bring a new "face" to the administration and peoples beliefs and attitudes will change for the better..
