Question

Dont get mad. Just tell me if all of these thigns are true !
That's all I ask.

The United States

It refuses to sign a treaty banning land mines.

It refuses to sign the Kyoto Accords, limiting greenhouse gasses.

It uses cluster bombs -- bombs consisting of dozens of tiny land mine-like bomblets -- which continue to kill, usually children, well after a war is finished.

It has 30,000 tons of chemical weapons.

It has the world's largest stockpile of nuclear weapons. It refuses to sign the Comprehensive Nuclear Test Ban Treaty.

It refuses to renounce the first strike use of nuclear weapons. It won't commit to refraining from using nuclear weapons against non-nuclear weapon states.

It is the only country to ever use nuclear weapons.

Type in "Find the use of Cluster Bombs by the United States"
Hit "search" and then click various sources.

Answer 1

Now that is what I call leadership!

Answer 2

"The United States
It refuses to sign a treaty banning land mines."

So far, yes.


"It refuses to sign the Kyoto Accords, limiting greenhouse gasses."

Under the present administration, yes.


"It uses cluster bombs -- bombs consisting of dozens of tiny land mine-like bomblets -- which continue to kill, usually children, well after a war is finished."

The United States is one of a number of nations to employ weapons which leave a dangerous residue.


"It has 30,000 tons of chemical weapons."

I don't know.


"It has the world's largest stockpile of nuclear weapons. It refuses to sign the Comprehensive Nuclear Test Ban Treaty."

Other countries have stockpiles- whether they are "large" or not seems irrelevant given the potential damage of even a single such weapon. Arriving at treaties has always been tricky. The U.S. has signed some such treaties, and not others.


"It refuses to renounce the first strike use of nuclear weapons. It won't commit to refraining from using nuclear weapons against non-nuclear weapon states."

Any number of nations and non-governmental groups could be accused of this, with regard to a variety of horrible weapons and other tools of manipulation.


"It is the only country to ever use nuclear weapons."

True, although that was over 60 years ago.

Answer 3

It is the only country to ever use nuclear weapons.

The results speak for themselves. Japan and the US both are fully aware of their power.

President Truman made the decision to save an estimated 500,000 American lives in the anticipated invasion of Japan. The loss in Japan may have been greater.

It refuses to renounce the first strike use of nuclear weapons. (I doubt this)

It won't commit to refraining from using nuclear weapons against non-nuclear weapon states.
(I don't think so) "Non-nuclear" states??
A moot question these days.

Any first nuclear strike will spell disaster for all.

Answer 4

How about that sly devil oil? If we withdraw from Iraq now, and Iran takes over they will own the oil in the gulf, would Saudi Arabia be able to hold out if they want to raise the price of oil to $200.00 a gallon?Who would Hugo Chavez go along with? In the blink of the eye the world could be dominated by Iran. I just wanted to point out that all the items you listed are not necessary for world domination.

Answer 5

sorry you dont agree but there has to be a bully. if there is not an identified one anybody can take that spot. Id rather it be a stable govt then non. Plus IM biased hey I admit it. but the fact of needing one is a must.

the world armaments are gonna have somebody with the most and they have to have the backing to make it effective deterant. Our people have already shown that if we agree to something we have to abide by it. if we say will will not do something then everybody else knows it rendering it all useless.

Answer 6

Clusterbombs on children? Please cite that. and don't cite from DailyKos. Cluster bombs are hardly used in iraq, and you couldnt take over the world with them.

You should cite all your facts, makes your arguments alot stronger.

And besides, america isnt the country of your grandparents days when people were proud to be americans and fight for the advancement of their country.

Answer 7

Well, the first steps toward World Domination was the formation of the WTO, and Projects Mockingbird and Echelon, in my opinion. Mockingbird was the begining of the USG and formely-free American Press joining together in the strategy of confusion (in that you only get two versions of the story, neither of which are factual). Echelon finalized the interception of almost ALL ELECTRONIC communications of the developed countries. World Domination can not be attained by nuking the world.

Answer 8

If all you say is true, why haven't we just taken over already? You know that won't happen because there are too many liberals around to make us feel bad about it. In fact, they are so paranoid that something like that could happen, they would have us just about defenseless if they could. Now that's paranoid!

Answer 9

Well a country looking to dominate the world might exhibit these characteristics. But wouldnt a country looking to dominate the world cut social and welfare programs to focus solely on military *cough N korea* Also would we be providing foreign aid to other nations who we would be looking to destroy and conquer lately? I hope you truly dont beleive that US policy is focusing on world domination as that would be incredibly arrogant. Anyways dont other nations have alot more on record on the tracks of world domination? USSR, Nazi Germany, Imperialist Europe.

Answer 10

because the starting up of time great rulers have tried to impact, dominate,subjugate,eliminate..no longer something has damaged the human endeavour for freedom great empires have come and lengthy gone, in extra modern-day time perhaps the longest enduring were the roman and british empires From the romans with thier stronger civilisation europe change into modernised Even at present many lasting monuments to rome proceed to exist,roads, viaducts,governance,regulation, language(latin) and many extra.The british colonised on each of the contenents, they further industrialisation,regulation and order,reliable authorities,numbers,and many new thoughts to the international which incorporates language(english) with a view to commence international domination commence the position you're even if it is going to fall like a house of playing cards.perhaps like the romans or the english you may leave something lasting

Answer 11

If our goal was to dominate the world, he clearly have the power to do so. We haven't because that is not our goal. Last I checked, we were a sovereign state with the right to reject treaties which we judge to be counter to out best interests.
