I am so sick of hearing about the stupid Iraq extra troops and how much money paranoid countries are needlessly spending on arms. They SHOULD be helping f-d up countries like Zimbabwe and Sudan. But i am guessing that wouldn't make them any money now would it? I am sure if the USA wanted to topple the old biddie Mugabe they could. Your views....?

Or, was the veneer of democratic institutions and civil rights for Americans and respect for other nations simply a lie from the start for the USA?

Without a clear enemy in the world, in order to justify its costly aggression and need for a military economy to employ the fighters and generate the technologies.... the USA invented one.

Looks like the new strategy (i.e. troop surge) is showing more and more progress. The latest poll shows some optimism: http://www.timesonline.co.uk/tol/news/world/iraq/article1530762.ece

I know in Massachusetts, just being having the possesion of marijuana you can get fined 100's of thousands of dollars and go to jail for up to 10 years.

if you rape a child you get counciling and only up 5 years in prison.

I was convicted of Drink Driving (DR10) a few weeks ago (1st offence) and I was due to go on holiday to Peru and transit via Newark Airport and spend a few days in New York on the way back. I read on the US embassy website that I now needed a visa (if you have ever been convicted or arressted - even if the arrest didn't lead to a charge) and couldn't use the visa waiver form. So I cancelled the holiday. I am now planning to go in November and I am happy to apply for a visa at the US emabssy, but the police check required for the Embassy appointment takes 40 days and the embassy decision takes another 14. So will i have to go through this process every time I want to go to america on a non-immigrant visa? Or are there other visa types that once I have it, I can travel to the US for multiple entries over a lond period (maybe a few years)? I have read about a waiver of ineligibility - what does this allow and who is it for please? I am British and live in the UK.

Wasn't that what the Nazis did too in order to control the society and chill dissent?

As Iraq war protests grow, FBI and CIA are engaged in more internal spying these days to keep busy. Even Yahoo is censuring posts and supplies info at the beck and call of the government. The USA Atty General Gonzales (aka the fool) will find a way to create a black list; USA crumbles like a house of unprincipled cards.

USA Democracy? Never was and never will be.

I mean it is obvious. In majority, Democrats rant and rave, while Republicans exhibit much more grace (and I am not talking about Y/A). Do modern Democrats lack social education?

Soon after world war 2 world leaders met and formed what became known as the league of nations, America did not join. America was currently under its isolationism idea, (no involvement in Euoprean affairs.)
The league of nations failed to stop hitler, who began invading Poland, Austria, ect.
America did not join the war seriously until Pearl Harbor.
The reason i think that America is the "World Police" Is because of what i call "The Guilt Theory". This is because America feels if she was in the league of nations she may have stopped Hitler and prevented WW2. now maybe (and this is just a theory) whenever America sees any sign of threat they jump. They said Hitler was just some dictator and everyone thought his forces were nothing, he ended up violating the treaty that was supposed to limit his army that had been signed after WW1. Does America act because before she did not act before? Saddam, Ahkmadejad, are all just some "little dictators". Do you see a similarity?
Your thoughts?

It seems that the Democtrats all just take orders from someone. Whenever any issue comes up thay all come out saying the exact same thing like a bunch of mindless zombies. Except Lieberman, and when he didn't follow orders, he got dumped by the Democrats like an ugly date. Who gives the orders? Dean, Ted (the lush) Kennedy, Soros, who?
