Instead we invade the country, spend billions doing it in order to remove a violent dictator and hopefully add a little more stability to the middle east.
Like it or not, every country we have invaded since 1900 has been to defend it from some foreign agressor or some communist revolution, not to steal resources. And it has almost always been at the request of the rest of the world.
And I have to disagree with you on us not being able to take China or Russia. The US would not beat them in a matter of days like Iraq but we have the most powerful, most advanced military there is. Neither Russia or China would want to test that.
And again, our massive nuclear stockpile would prevent China or Russia from going there. |
LOL its scary to know that pseudo nationalism has actually made you believe the "ideals" your government claims to uphold.
name a country? i can name two: iraq and kuwait.
now Xanax, keep in mind this: The United States of America is NOT a truly democratic nation. had enough time for that to sink in yet? no? k ill wait a bit more...

...ready? good.
Now, if you've been invading other nations for their own good and to protect their rights and freedoms, why is that almost every country you've had an occupation of or have waged war in has some resonating or deep hatred for the states? your nation has a terrible record for during and post-war occupation, usually causing more damage during, and leaving a shitstorm behind you. keep in mind that much of the wars youve had have been a result of your own actions. Sadam and Osama were once your allies, but you fucked with them, they hit back at what you held dear, and you went to wage war in their countries with almost a total lack of respect for the civilian populace. simply put, your troops in the past and present tend to terrorize the civilian population of foreign occupied nations.
Have you noticed that almost infinitely lesser heat has been directed towards the Brits and their "softly, softly" approach? they have taken the time and measures to ensure their military actions target only the enemy, with much less civilian casualties. Also, the cities which they occupy have not been excessively dangerous, as the respect and protection they show for the populace is returned with respect and gratification, not with terror and hatred.
About your statement with regards to Russia and China...w..t..f? your government and its civilians seem to be drunk with stupidity with concerns to your percieved power. Your nuclear stockpile means shit. While Russia presently has a smaller arsenal, much of it you can't track with confidence, as they're mobile ICBM launchers (including subs). China is in the same boat (pun intended), but they're more into aerial-based nuclear strikes, and due to the size and effectiveness of their airforce, a aerial-directed nuclear strike poses a serious threat to you. Yes, you are right, you have the most technologically advanced military in the world overall, but many beat your level of technology in single areas, and this is where your superiority ends. Under next to no circumstances could your country expect to win an air or land war against Russia or China (we won't even consider the possibility of them allying to remove a common foe) not only in sheer numbers are you heavily outnumbered by both, but your military hasn't fought a professional armed force since world war 2. Both the Russians and the Chinese training on par with your military and are used to going it alone, they do not fight as part of a coalition...another thing your military has become accustomed to.
shit, i meant to keep this short, but your statements pissed me off to a certain degree, so i had to write this..newayz im done with this.
