I know we're involved with the United Nations and we have agreements with them. However, why are we always the one's who is sending majority of our army in other countries. Germany didn't send anybody to fight, they sent people to aid for food and other things but not for fighting. Germany is pretty smart. You can help a war without fighting. America wants to fight all the time. Why? We need to fight our war in America, poverty, crime, AIDS and health concerns with our American citizens. Take care of home first before you go take care of some outsiders! Does anybody agree?

The whole white-hatted virtuous cowboy thing seems to be the way a lot of people in the U.S government have thought of themselves for years. Look at the common misconception that the U.S won the second world war virtually single handed. America as a relatively new nation had to rapidly forge a strong national identity to succeed and adopted the pioneering freedom loving image that is now inseparable from American national identity. "Home of the brave, land of the free" - leaves successive governments a burden of responsibility to be super heroes, and if there are no foes at home, then go and rescue the poor and oppressed in other countries.
Also during the cold war they would do anything, anywhere to stop the dreaded communists, and now securing the oil supply is a major factor in where they choose to fight (see Kuwait) Unfortunately 9/11 made one sixth of the worlds population fundamentally an enemy of America.
As the most powerful nation on Earth, the U.S will always have the most enemies, smaller nations such as Germany have a completely different national identity and do not feel the same pressure to act as the U.S does. It has turned into a catch 22 situation. America started along this path decades ago,and now it cannot stop. Other minor players can come and go without it being such a big deal. What a mess.

Its not up to you my good friend read this you may come to realized what is going on:
"Every time we do something you tell me America will do this and will do that . . . I want to tell you something very clear: Don't worry about American pressure on Israel. We, the Jewish people, control America, and the Americans know it." -- Ariel Sharon to Shimon Peres, October 3rd, 2001, as reported on Kol Yisrael

tell me, what international locations are extra clever off that don't get entangled with international locations conflicts? If i ought to bear in mind for you, France, England, and many Europe did no longer get entangled with Germany's quest for ability interior the overdue 1920's early 1930's, and somewhat ordinary guy called Hitler got here to ability and stunned all of those idiots who stayed out of conflict. ecu international locations asked for help, yet no one did no longer something until it became too overdue. lots of Europe went up in flames with the aid of that. WWII strike a chord? factor to that matter is that there became a lesson from that conflict. do no longer enable it ensue back. next time a tyrant takes ability or a central authority inflicts discomfort and suffering on its human beings, somebody ought to step in with the aid of fact if we don't, who will, and what are the implications which will come out of no one doing no longer something? international conflict? Genocide? Famine? affliction? i might somewhat take grievance from different international locations for stepping in and fixing issues before they get too huge, then have a larger subject down the line and characteristic those comparable international locations complaining, whining for our help. The liberal media is making this us of a gentle anymore.

you ever stop to be grateful that you live in a country, that will not only take up arms to help out other countries, but that would also take up arms to make sure you're sorry liberal butt is safe.
