Answer:

<h2>The league believed the war was immoral and undemocratic.</h2>

Historical context/details:

The Anti-Imperialist League was established in 1898.  They viewed the United States' involvement in the Philippines was an act of imperialism.  

The central philosophical argument of the Anti-Imperialist League was that a republican government (such as the United States) cannot be true to itself if it takes over control of territories without the consent of the people in those territories.  In our own country's Declaration of Independence, you'll find these words:  "To secure these rights (life, liberty and the pursuit of happiness), Governments are instituted among Men, deriving their just powers from the consent of the governed."  If we believe that about our own country, we need to apply the same principle to other countries -- such as the Philippines.   

That was the Anti-Imperialist League's contention.

Why does Paine want foreign nations to know about the colonies unhappiness of looking under British rule
Citrus2011 [14]

In my opinion I believe he wants foreign nations to understand why people left England so they would be on the colonists side and help them to defeat the British. Paine wanted to also get this point across so other nations wouldn't do to their citizens what the British did to theirs.
