American History Revised

American History Revised is a book by Seymour Harris Jr. detailing some historical accounts which have been omitted from textbooks and many other history books.

In a chapter titled “Forgotten by History” he writes: “In 1506 a compilation of Vespucci’s letters was published in pamphlet form, titled ‘The Four Voyages of Amerigo Vespucci’. For the next twenty-five years, it was a bestseller, published in some forty editions, and outselling the dull journals of Columbus by three to one. In 1507 a book of geography appeared, Cosmographiae Introductio, identifying the new continent as ‘America’. The author eventually realized that Vespucci’s claims of discovery were false and soon removed the name America, but by then it was too late: Vespucci’s bestseller had won the day... History is brutal in who becomes famous and doesn’t. Said Theodore Roosevelt after leaving office in 1910, ‘If there is not the great war, you don’t get the great general’”, (P. 34-35). And that is how America became the title of a continent and the name of fifty plus united states and territories which geographically occupies a landmass that makes it one of the largest countries in the world, with the greatest power in technology and military.

Countries Americans Are Not Welcomed

Some research organizations surveyed various countries as to their level of acceptance of American tourists. They found 25 countries where not all residents think Americans are welcomed. Considering that there are 195 countries in the world, this lack of enthusiasm for Americans is in less than one eighth of all countries, which may not sound substantial. However, when we realize that beside of Iraq, Syria and Palestine, there are European countries such as Germany, Austria, and even our neighbor Canada in this list, one must check the cause, reason, or motivation. Of course, like everything else, there are not one or two reasons, but a combination of several facts. The remarkable thing is that when we find the grounds, we realize that none of the explanations has anything to do with ordinary American tourists, but it has everything to do with the U.S. government.

Regime Change

One must be careful about such political statements. There is no doubt that the content of this video is ‎accurate and what this person is reporting about the Iranian government and the uprising is correct. ‎However, it is not difficult to find dirt on the Islamic regime, as it has been soiled with violence since its conception. The ‎question is who is saying this and to what end and purpose. The person in this clip is obviously publicizing ‎the line of the government of Israel, for the consumption of Iranian people. Considering that the Zionist ‎government was founded by Judaist framework, and it is a religious government (in fact more religious than ‎the Islamic government), and taking into the account its maltreatment of Palestinians which can be ‎compared with the treatment of Jews by the Third-Reich, it is curious for a government spokesperson of Israel ‎condemning another religious state and its human rights violations.‎
