What countries have we "conquered"?
I'm not a patriotic moron, but I would question the ethics of any country fighting / bombing / terrorising or attacking another, whether that is East or West.
True, the West have messed up the whole Iraq thing, but to claim they have "conquered" it is a misinterpretation of the facts...if the suicide and car bombers were to stop, they would be able to more swiftly move out of the area and hand it over to the countries own government to run themselves.
As it is, they are faced with no choice but to remain in the country and try and help the innocent people blown to bits by their own countrymen in the name of freedom.
I have yet to see a "conquerer" decimate a marketplace or cause the "real pain" you speak about...perhaps if less of that were to happen, the West could spend the vast resources they are pumping into the East for aid on themselves....just a thought?

There are no 'small incidents' if they are sponsored by those other countries. Any time an 'eastern country' or any other country attacks another nation, they should expect to be attacked in return, and possibly conquered.
The question isn't about small incidents. Wars have happened sometimes over the death of one person. The question is about who is responsible. I think it was clear that the Taliban in Afghanistan was behind the attacks, and therefore it was fully legitimate to destroy them. Why should anyone want mass murderers in their government anyway?
No one believes that people in eastern countries are animals. That's ridiculous.
I think you, also, cannot see the real pain. It sounds as though you don't place a very high value on the lives of Westerners, and are only concerned about what happens in Eastern countries. Perhaps you also need to consider the value of the lives of people that you don't know.

Do you mean the countries that got hit by the tsunami? The USA contributed doctors, medicines, and huge amounts of money. Do you mean Sudan where the USA is trying to negotiate a peace and is accepting thousands of Sudanese refugees? Do you mean Bosnia where the USA stepped in to stop the killing by the Serbs? Where do you mean the USA is conquering countries? And we take a small incident in our country and mark it with an anniversary because we value life so much!

what the hell are you talking about?
of course we see everyone in the world as humans and thats why we give more money to help out other countries than any other country in the world. thats why thousands of our soldiers have died in Iraq so that the cizitzens there didnt have to live opressed.
those that think americans dont see others as human need to do a reality check.

I remarked on this very to my wife when all there was on the new's was the anniversary of 7/7-i'm English-even in Iraq- afghanistan-anywhere by proportion it's an insult to the real people dying every day all over the world-people whom may never have the chances we've had and take so much for granted-yes my friend,but please we are the people of Britain and have as much control over what they do in our name as Islam has over terrorist's blackening the name of a sacred religion! bloody good question mate.!ktf.x

People in Western countries do feel the pain. the media just doesn't show it when we respond to things happening over there most of the time.

they don't feel the pain because they created it ....they are the source of every pain that the Eastern countries feel and suffer .... they think that they are in a very high class, and Arabs in a very very low one ....the west think es that it's the strongest nation of our time so every thing around it is nothing according to them .... so u can't compare the west with the east in our life

There's a huge difference between fighting a war and randomly blowing up innocent civilians.
Those small incidents you're referring to are cowardly acts carried out by cowardly people.

Certainly we "feel your pain." That's why we're trying to help bring you freedom. (You're welcome!)
By the way...the terrorists, dictators, and madmen are doing 99% of the killing...not the Western countries. We view one single death as a tragedy.
Why don't you ask THEM if they feel your pain?
