OK Luther073082, I have to agree that what you said about you guys havin a strong military etc etc. It is true. But what irritates me the most about what you said is the ATTITUDE, my friend.
What I cannot understand is that the US has cows when Iran wants to develop nuclear technology, and your Condoleezza Rice runs all over the world lecturing everybody about democracy.
Yet when some other nation does EXACTLY what the US has done in Iraq (storm in using their weapons as they choose and invading who they want to ), the US places pressure on everybody to sanction that country.
So then it again comes down to the whole ATTITUDE with which you guys approach every issue:
We HAVE the money, we ARE rich and the most powerful nation on earth, so get out of our way!
In other words, the US can bully anybody and defend their actions by calling it "fighting for democracy" or whatever cheap lame excuse they can think of.
So in conclusion, it doesn't take a rocket scientist to figure out the unreasonable attitude of telling others how to do things, and then turn around and do exactly the opposite, and then it's OK to do so because you are powerful - what part of this sick picture can you not understand?.
No wonder some people on this planet spit on this thing you call ''Freedom'', because the US has a pretty funny way of showing it!!!
In fact, the US has the monopoly and copyright on ''Freedom''. They are kinda the franchise owners: The brochure goes something like this:
''Dear Recipient Nation. THIS is Freedom, it's now also yours, mazel tov. You do it this and this way. You play by our rules, we define the term Freedom and everything contained within''.
I mean, what is Freedom? Is freedom the ability to FREE-ly develope nuclear technology as a sovereign nation? I think it is, but not according to the US. Ask Iran.
So like in the case of Iran, the Texan in the White House has another paranoia attack and tightens the grip on Freedom, because you are the most powerful nation on earth and you make the rules. Remember?
I think you guys are two faced and your president should be put on trial for war crimes. Oh sorry, yeah, he's the leader of the Free World, I forgot. That makes him untouchable.
But hey, that's my opinion.
A-freaking-men! You stated that so beautifully and effectively and I hate the fact that, even though you put it so well, many people will end up ignoring this message of yours, since they're too stubborn and ignorant to be able to "think outside of the box," so to speak.OK Luther073082, I have to agree that what you said about you guys havin a strong military etc etc. It is true.

Heck, I think that any nation that has bullied other nations as much as the US has is a bad nation.Well first of all your nuts because Bush has committed no war crimes. Cause there is no international law. You can write it down on paper, but its all just words and paper, nothing to back it up.
Second of all you tell me what nation being the richest and most powerful has ever NOT chosen to try to influence the world the way it wants.
Every other nation used their power to influence the world the way they wanted to. But when the US uses its power, we're suddenly evil for it.
it was not illegal. we do not need UN approval. whether people like it or not doesn't make it illegal. the UN is a threat to our national sovereignty and always has been.What about the fact that he started the war illegally, without getting the UN's approval for doing so?
So you think that an organization that was started to keep peace between the US and other nations is a threat to us? What...the...heck...? Seriously, how is the UN not a good organization?it was not illegal. we do not need UN approval. whether people like it or not doesn't make it illegal. the UN is a threat to our national sovereignty and always has been.
does the UN keep peace? you realize nations like Iran are in there right? i said a threat to our sovereignty, and to watch the Iran president give speached to the UN about how the holocaust not happening and the US basically lies about everything, then i would say there are threats there. i watched this live on tv by the way.So you think that an organization that was started to keep peace between the US and other nations is a threat to us?
if it is truly good then we should be able to talk about it's good accomplishments, so let's start.Seriously, how is the UN not a good organization?
haha, while this is a true statement, i wasn't voicing my opinion. i was stating a fact. the war wasn't illegal.And just because you don't think that it was illegal doesn't mean that it actually wasn't illegal
Just because the UN doesn't keep total peace doesn't mean that it doesn't keep peace at all. Not everything is "black and white." Some things (like the UN's peacekeeping skills) do have shades of gray.does the UN keep peace? you realize nations like Iran are in there right? i said a threat to our sovereignty, and to watch the Iran president give speached to the UN about how the holocaust not happening and the US basically lies about everything, then i would say there are threats there. i watched this live on tv by the way.

Let's see...the Korean War - yeah, that was a pretty good thing. Helped save at least part of Korea ~ from the US or China take your pick!does the UN keep peace? you realize nations like Iran are in there right? i said a threat to our sovereignty, and to watch the Iran president give speached to the UN about how the holocaust not happening and the US basically lies about everything, then i would say there are threats there. i watched this live on tv by the way.
