While the other countries on the globe like Europe , Aisa and the rest have has thousands and thousands of years of old history of fighting to keep others out. The USA is only about 230 years old and as a new country we are just doing what others have done many years ago.
The other countries can sit back ( so to speak ) and comment on how the USA is just a bunch of war hawks.

Greetings. maybe because we are? and if you don't think we are racist then you must not get out much. and as for pro-war? we have had constant wars or police actions, going on since world war 2, none of which were justifyable according to even our own laws. let alone the laws of the rest of the world including international. We are not now, nor have we in the past been fighting to keep anyone out here. Nor to protect our country from foreign invasion. we fight for profit mainly. and do it very badly it must be admitted, since we lose every battle or war, whatever you choose to call it. we choose to instigate. We haven't won a war since world war 2 and that was only because we sided with communist Russia in that one. If the communists hadn't broken the back of the German military we would be writing this in German now instead of English. Speaking of simply doing as others did back in the long ago past. Were you okay with the Inquisition? or the genocide against the American natives, or the genocide by Spain against the natives of central and south America? the extermination camps of Nazi Germany? the first extermination camps which were British and used to kill South African civilians after the war there? Just because someone in the past did something does not make it right. just makes it part of history.

How many of the past 230 years has the US not been at war?
(and please do not leave out so-called police actions, undeclared wars, invasions similar to Panama etc. War of Independance, Civil War etc)
In the past 230 years how many major incidents of racism have there been. The incidents are high again with Jena and the general hate of Iraqis innocent of crimes against the US.
The US is extremely pushy world wide about how great it thinks it is. No wonder the world looks at you.
The US news is very insular. Start watching news from other countries and find out what troubles they have too.
Try Answers in other countries and see what they are talking about.

because they interfere in others matters(SINCE AROUND WORLD WAR 2 AND ALSO FACE EMBARESSMENT LIKE IN THE VIETNAM CASE WHEN YOU HAVE TO FLEE FROM THE WAR MIDWAY)
otherwise what does it mean when one day you preach peace to our nation and the other day sell f-16b's to our neighbours the other day AT REDUCED PRICES..
and racists well ,you visit our nation ,watch our taj mahal eat our cuisine and if we push you just by mistake you simply uTter some racist nonsense but then its true some countries like britain are a little more racists(as far as my point of view)
but the truth is that you define your own nation ,but still it shows a lot about country's biased nature when EXTRA security checks are done on someone cause HE'S NOT FAIR

Well, when was the last time that one of the afformentioned governments attacked a country that had not attacked them and occupied thier land for as many years?....killed so many of thier women and children.....treated them and thier country as though it was insignificant???
And make sure you know the difference between this and what you said.... Other governemnts see this administration as a bunch of war-mongers(because they are), not the US people!
And as you said other countries have done similar things...............many years ago!!!! While they seem to have grown into more understanding and less combative nations we seem to be digressing.
You must understand that European countries have been subject to teerorist attacks for many years before the US.
But you don't see them with guns blazing terrorizing an innocent country!
Unfortunately my dear, we are what we have been accused of...and I am ashamed of our government!

Mainly because we advertise it. The other countries don't announce when they are gonna start a war, they just do it. Plus, America seems to be the only one pretensious enough to pick a fight after the installment of th UN.

What happen in the past is in the past, we are suppose to be the most advanced civilization on the planet, but yet we are these things, we the people of the US need to stop living in denial that we are beginning to be very bad people or such I say very poorly governed people, we think we can do what we want and no one can stop us, so isn't that like being a bully!!

The same reason Wal-Mart gets singled out for paying low wages, or CEO's are singled out when their company goes belly up. Whoever is at the top, gets the most scrutiny and thats the way it should be.

Does anyone really care?
In less than 100 years they're going to be the European Union of Islamic States.
That's if and only if we're smart enough to learn from their mistakes. France is on its way to having the fourth largest Muslim population in Europe. They'll go down first, and I hope we're taking notes.

The US is using it's power to fight a war that started for no good reason. Also it is the most multi-cultural country and it's hard for all these races of people to get along.
