Politics - 5 August 2006

At the time the US was pushing Canada to contribute a military presence in Iraq (I am not sure what they were after we don't have much of one) so I assume the pressure was for diplomatic reasons -"Look even Canada is on our side".The reasoning I/we heard from the US is that they'd go to war for us if we declared war on someone a kind of peer presure ussually reseved for the school yard but Cretian wouldn't budge.
Would they though ? Have they in the past?
War of 1812 they attempt to invade Canada
1898 and 1901 Boer war we went they didn't
1914 we went to war they joined after making a huge profit selling somthing to everyone joined 1916-1939 a complete repeat of ww1 they went 41Korea and Vietnam we sent a small volenteer Battalion and refused to declare war but we do have Nam/Korean vets who signed.The 90's we arrest the Estai off the Grand bank after chaseing it into international waters and shooting it's screw out and then dragged them back the US was where?Would they really?

Hugo Chavez ensured that the corrupt few rich did not continue putting all money in their own pockets, but believed that natural resources of the country belongs to everyone and as such everyone should benefit from it, not just the few. And he accomplished it.. He doesn't put all the money in his own pocket, or serve only large businesses like most of the capitalist governments, USA in particular.

Why does america dislike him so much? Just because he doesn't let USA have their oil? Just because he hates USA, like most of the rest of the world? What the hell is america's problem with Chavez?

I feel that America provided the most Aids to the world. Whether friend or foe, it time of needs, America have made effort to help. I think in the past America have helped to the point others have taken advantage of. I think the America way of life and free spirited gave others a feeling that we are imposing on them.
Therefore with the free spirit of giving and helping, other see that as a threat to there culture. When they see there country men living in America, becoming American, they see it as an insult.
I expect to get a lot of HATE response, but it okay, I have been reading all the hate for a while now.
Remember, my question is ‘who provide the most aid’, NOT ‘how much you hate America’ (I already know that)……..thanks

To me, all babies are born with my full respect and admiration, no matter the colour of their skin, or to what family they were born into. Whether that respect grows or diminishes through time, depends entirely on the individual.

None of us have a say as to what class of family we are going to be born into. We'll just call it 'luck of birth' if we are fortunate enough not to be born into a life of poverty! So what 'right' therefore does anyone have to claim a 'right to rule' simply because they were fortunate to be born into a 'royal family'. People should 'earn' the right to be leaders, rather than have it bestowed upon them through inheritance.

What 'right' for example does the British Royal Family have to live in palaces, when so many of the so-called 'commoners' of their country are forced to live on the street?

It is wrong for people to discriminate against someone simply because of the colour of their skin. Discrimination of birth should be equally abhorred!

The Cuban's worry and fear over a US led invasion isn't based on anyting less than the US's own behaviour - a war and blood thirsty dictator on the loose with a military poised to strike with little or no reason but they saw a weakness.

That is the American reputaion and that is why your diplomats ussually don't get anywhere (welcome in Israel I know I know) and thats why you end up wearing Maple leaf's on your coats and bags when you visit most countires on holidays.

What can/will you do about this reputation - ?

I mean, things have continually gotten worse. And now Iraq could possibly engage in a full-scale civil war. If we are going to do anything, I feel we should divide the country up.

With the bumper stickers, the music, the flags, "USA USA USA" etc.
Do I really need to run outside and yell it out to the whole world. Can't I just know it myself and be happy with that?
Why do they try so hard and then accuse others of not being patriotic because they don't feel the need to showcase it to the rest of the world?

The US and Israel have known since the first "twin tower" bombing that Iran was behind it.The US also knows that 'ALL" the american people can't handle the truth. We slipped into Afghanistan, then IRAQ...For the "sole purpose" of strategically placing ourselves in the center of ALL terrorism. IRANIAN clerics are "hell bent" on bringing about the return of the "messiah, Whom they say will not return "until" ALL the infidels are wiped from the face of the earth. If you ain't Muslim, you ain't livin' !!!.
Iran, "not" the Iraqi citizens, are behind the resistance in Iraq. Iran knows that as long as we are where we are, their plans are more difficult. That is why they have "employed" Hezbollah as the "stick" to poke Israel in the eye..To draw American attention to that region, since Iran knows that the world "hates" Jews, and the USA is truly their only friend.
Bush "relies" on the liberals to perpetuate the incompitence of the US, so that IRAN will make the MISTAKE that IRAN is.
GO USA
