Nick N is absolutely right. Well said.
The last thing the US wants to do is take over the world. How does one go from helping a country achieve democracy before leaving, become taking over? What would a map of Europe look like if the US had not gotten involved in WW2? If anything history proves the USA has no interest in taking over the world.
I'm sorry you hate the USA as much as you seem to Trout. I have an idea...What if your own country takes over as the world's superpower? How long till your country would be hated ya figure?

The Project for the New American Century, or PNAC, is a Washington-based think tank created in 1997. Above all else, PNAC desires and demands one thing: The establishment of a global American empire to bend the will of all nations. They chafe at the idea that the United States, the last remaining superpower, does not do more by way of economic and military force to bring the rest of the world under the umbrella of a new
socio-economic Pax Americana.
The fundamental essence of PNAC's ideology can be found in a White Paper produced in September of 2000 entitled "Rebuilding America's Defenses:
Strategy, Forces and Resources for a New Century." In it, PNAC outlines what is required of America to create the global empire they envision.
According to PNAC, America must:
* Reposition permanently based forces to Southern Europe, Southeast Asia and the Middle East;
* Modernize U.S. forces, including enhancing our fighter aircraft, submarine and surface fleet capabilities;
* Develop and deploy a global missile defense system, and develop a strategic dominance of space;
* Control the "International Commons" of cyberspace;
* Increase defense spending to a minimum of 3.8 percent of gross domestic product, up from the 3 percent currently spent.
Most ominously, this PNAC document described four "Core Missions" for the American military. The two central requirements are for American forces to "fight and decisively win multiple, simultaneous major theater wars," and to "perform the 'constabulary' duties associated with shaping the security environment in critical regions." Note well that PNAC does not want America to be prepared to fight simultaneous major wars. That is old school. In order to bring this plan to fruition, the military must fight these wars one way or the other to establish American dominance for all to see.

the us thinks it can do and say what they want to - till the day that some obscure little country kicks their ***!!! A prime example - Iran nucluer programme - they have time and again insisted that it is for energy purposes. How long before the us invades to "rid" the world of a potential threat. U get the idea that the us wants to be the only country will defense and if anyone wants to try and defend them, the us will crush them like a bug.

I sort of do.
However, they don't really need force...
Check it out:
--> dollar is a major trading coin, used in transactions between countries that don't have dollars has their coin;
--> if the US stock market collapses, world's stock markets go right behind;
--> oil prices rise in US? World countries begin to rise the price of everything related;
--> American movies and stars and TV shows are know all over the world;
--> coke and hamburger are everywhere
--> who doesn't know how dumb G. W. Bush is?
And I could stay here forever...

Ultimately we can't handle that kind of responsibility, and I think the administration is aware of that. Though I will say they're attempting to make the US the richest country in the world.

This is the most stupidest question concerning Politics I have seen on here so far. So keep up the unthinking radical thinking.
The US is not trying to take over the world be force or any other means unless you think freeing people for tyranny of oppression is taking over the world.
First explain how you come to this thought in the first place. In the last 100 years which country have we invaded, taken over and ruled, outside of the United States boarders.
We have went in and went to war and stopped stopped the Nazi expansionism. We freed France, Germany, Italy, Poland and other European countries. We did not stay and take over that part of the world. We did go in to Korea and helped their government from becoming Communists as North Korea is now a days. We did go to war in Vietnam to help the spread of Communist regime. We got our buts kicked there but we didn't stay. We went to war in Kuwait and didn't take over that country. We attacked Afghanistan and fighting there and we didn't take over its government. We are fighting a way in Iraq now and we are helping them try to form a sue-do democratic government there. Then we are leaving. Now it may take years but we are leaving.
So please explain your radical uneducated Roderic on how USA is taking the world by force.?

Not the US, but Bush thinks he's the Comander in Chief of the Universe. He has destroyed our place in the world community as peacemaker and made the Us the major agressor and agitator. He is the most dangerous person in the world today.

No. We appear to be rather clumsy in our efforts to "control" the middle-east and this makes it look like we want to take over the world from the perspective of those we are trying to control.
You'll know the difference once China decides to take its oil (that happens to lie beneath countries in the middle east.)

Not me. If the US wanted to take over the whole world by force, they could do it in a day. The US has enough nukes to blow up the world a hundred times. but they are not doing that.
what are you getting at?

Just trying to protect foreign interest. Not enough money, manpower, and the worlds support to accomplish such a goal.
