Why don't we (USA) just conquer the world...and remake it in our image and usher in 1000years reign of peace??

Question

sure some people will object, but we have the brute miltary strenght to do this, and they will see the light later when the whole world is thriving under a Pax americana.

Answer 1

Fabulous idea. Clearly only the American way is the right way. In fact we should spread democracy at the barrel of a gun, who cares if people want it or not. Our arrogance and military might is enough to overcome any dissent.

Answer 2

Peace through military conquest is not an option. Many cultures have tried to conquer the world through these means throughout history. None have succeeded. Military engagements do serve a purpose. That purpose should always be for the defense of the homeland. The only path to world peace is through understanding and this is what all cultures seem to lack, including our own great republic. Try to conquer the world militarily and what you will create will always be more dissent as people rightfully resist invasion and occupation.

Answer 3

So you think that if you change the names of the landmasses of the planet earth to read USA, the whole world will live in peace. Oh so simple if only it would work. I am sure that you know as well as I do, the people of the planet are what makes the wars and unstable areas. Not the names of any given real estate. Call the planet Cream Cheese if you want, it will not change the attitude of the people masses. People being people, we cannot please everyone, there is always the haves and the have-nots, the happy and the "disturbers" It is part of life in this world...I guess we have to live with it and try our best to make peace where they are ready for peace.

Answer 4

because of the fact it can be a twisted and distorted image, as a mirror in a funhouse. the U. S. isn't perfect. the U. S. isn't extremely helpful. the U. S. IS wealthy, however the U. S. has poor public amenities, an extremely unfavorable 2-occasion device (and not a minimum of three, like very almost another democratic united states of america) no longer an spectacular preparation device, extremely severe violent crime and crime fee commonly. i've got self assurance in some factors ecu countries are greater suited than the U. S. - nevertheless those countries are lacking in another factors. as properly - i think of you're able to discover each and each united states of america YOU INVADED could have an extremely solid resistance - sorry, insurgency, and that's clearly ignoring the shown fact which you would be actual, completely, hideously outnumbered - even merely invading South American countries. maximum persons do unlike being informed what to do with the aid of jarheads from a distant places united states of america, notably if those human beings say "you won't have the capacity to vote for who you prefer, you have have been given to vote for who we inform you to. in case you do no longer, we will kill a number of you, then assist you to attempt returned", then calling that democracy and freedom. Western Europe, Canada, Japan, Australia - even India and Russia to a pair quantity, are helpful countries. we are no longer individuals, nor can we prefer to be - yet we proportion a lot of your values. bypass us, impose your way of existence on us and we could combat you and destroy you fully.

Answer 5

Because Muslim extremists fight for a cause that is higher than money and you can not conquer or buy out a cause, it's just like a virus and your only hope is to try and control it.

Destroying the world is the only way it can be remade in the American image.

Answer 6

You can't be serious. The dollar is already the standard for currency and English is the chief language for business and science.

No one has ever succeeded in conquering the world, and no one ever will, in all likelihood.

Answer 7

the us cannot conquer the world. there are too many riseing powers. We might be able to (after millions of deaths) take over the EU. But asia would never fall are only solution would be to blow it up but the gasses would kill us.

Answer 8

Great, we can't do that in a 2 bit country and your suggesting we conquer the world? I can only guess you'd have the head draft dodger and his little buddy take the lead. (O that's Dick and George)

Answer 9

LOL, what do you think Bush has been trying to do? But we can't even secure a street to the Baghdad airport. We are not off to a good start. Also looking in the right place for the terrorist that caused 9-11 would also help.......but again we can't manage to do that either. It's like having a Hitler without a brain in the White House.

Answer 10

Because we're doing it in everyone's best interest right?

Precisely what the Egyptians, Spartans, Phoencians, Romans, Spanish, Dutch, and British thought as they expanded their empires - we're doing it for their own good. And every single one of them failed, miserably.
