Answer 1

This really depends on the nature of the conflict. There is a difference in how the US sees a conflict and how the world sees a conflict.
If you have a look at the consequences of 9/11, there was and is a huge support of the US world wide. If there is an UN mandate, or the US is under attack, the NATO states and other states will join in.
There are troops in Afghanistan from all over the place, great number of soldiers (>1000) and material from:
Australia, Canada, France, Germany, Italy, Netherlands, Romania and UK. Although the situation in Afghanistan is calmer than in Iraq, there are still soldiers of those Allies dying in combat activities.

In activities like in Iraq, where there is no UN mandate, the US will rely on the crdibility of the facts, on very close allies and on nations who think they can benefit from supporting the US (politically and economicly). Apart from the UK and South Korea none of the coalition forces has 1000 or more soldiers in Iraq, and the countries joining the coalition seems to be a bulk of formerly communistic eastern european countries that want to place a statement away from Russia. The countries remaining in Iraq are the UK, South Korea, Australia, Denmark, El Salvador and a lot of those formerly communistic countries, all other western countries either never joined the coalition or withdrew.

If there will be real trouble around the corner, the US can count on nearly all the western Europen countries (except Switzerland), some of the fromer Eastern European countries, the Commonwealth countries, Isreal, South Korea, Japan, Thailand and maybe some other Nations.

If the US would decide to attack Iran by next week, I think apart from the UK, Australia and maybe South Korea no one will join in. Israel can not afford to support such activities, and the other nations are even more sceptic to support those activities than they have been during the invasion in Iraq.

Answer 2

In the far east we have S. Korea, Japan, Taiwan (albeit not officially recognized by the US), Australia (contracted to provide bases), the Philipenes, and Thailand.

In the Middle East, those closest to us are Israel.... and not really anyone else. You can count Kuwait, Georgia, Turkey, Saudi Arabia, and Pakistan if you want, but these countries are either militarily weak or up in the air.

In Latin America, we get along well enough with Panama and Costa Rica. Although Chile and Brazil both support the worker movement in Venezuela, it has to be noted that the Latino left is not united. Neither of those countries would support Chavez if he went off the deep end because they believe in democracy and the potential of free markets, so it would be possible to negotiate trespassing rights as well as stationing such as the agreements we used to have with Turkey in its membership within NATO. Also, don't forget how Puerto Rico is a commonwealth of the US.

I'd suggest a comparative political approach though when considering our possibility of hitting Iran. First off, there aren't enough war supporters in Congress to pass a declaration of war. Second, there are more important interests in the Middle East such as stability, democracy, and liberal recognition of the multiple branches of Islam as well as the Kurdish and Siek cultures.

Same goes for Venezuela. Bush doesn't retaliate to him for the same reason he never responded to Hussein. Bush understands that Chavez is just a thorn in his side and that he would be giving Chavez just what he wants by participating in a debate. Also, it would take a while for Chavez to really get things rolling for any sort of mobilization in Venezuela. He keeps stealing power from the private sectors of his country's industries and he keeps rallying his people to empty causes. Unless his objective is to become an expansionist like Hitler (Chavez isn't one to commit huge human rights atrocities due to paranoid delusions), there really isn't a reason for too much concern to be associated with him.

Additionally, I want to emphasize how the UK has tremendous clout. They still get along with most of their former empire through the Commonwealth Pact and understand that the US is still the world's greatest beacon of democracy. The English have been our greatest ally for about a century now and we will enjoy very strong relations with them for, at the very least, decades to come.

France economic gadget is on the down part. lengthy time period in the past they formulated a plan to objective to be the proper canines in Europe's again. This plan grow to be to call all eu international places to band jointly as (extremely states) a Union. for sure the needed a proper canines billing. properly their economic gadget and protection rigidity grow to be the comic tale of Europe, so that they were given Germany to assist. After forming the Euro they failed as proper canines. the international is at an monetary conflict with one yet another and u . s . a . is the proper canines..So the country beaten the U.S. economically and compelled a educate down with Japan. US had to mortgage them funds contained in the eighty's. Now as of immediately the dollar is decrease then the EURO so all the european counties are paying for American and not in any respect eu products. the monetary conflict with Europe is purely about over. The French President is time-honored with of his politics and swung the French view to "we decide on the country and it really is way and not in any respect the communistic way". Our massive monetary conflict is with China, we lost the brazer conflict, now it really is toys, automobiles and oil battles. tremendous Britian will be and could be our allies the bond grow to be set in WWII
