(62,325 posts)and how many countries are we at war with now? I believe we are at war with the world because you know 'terra' is everywhere and we 'have the right to invade any country that is 'harboring terrorists'.
Why does the US have so many enemies? Does it ever occur to anyone that maybe it's not everyone else, maybe it has to do with the fact when you kill and torture people in other countries, they aren't going to think too kindly of you?
I wonder what would happen if we used all that money spent on killing people, we spent it here and spent some of it helping other countries, rather than rearranging their governments to our liking, and supporting their Dictators, like Karamov and the Bahrain Rulers and Saudi oppressors and our history isn't great either, supporting Dictators like Pinochet et al.
Sometimes you have to fact the fact that when are the one punching people in the face, someone is going to punch back sooner or later.
