Default Why?

Why is it that the USA thinks it has the right to sanction other countries for violence when they have started the most violent action on the planet? Why does the USA always think it has rights over other soverign countries and can impose their rules? Why are US hawks so certain they are right? Why is war always the answer? I just saw on the news that the US may impose sanctions on Syria if the government and Hesbolla don't stop fighting. Shouldn't we sanction ourselves for Iraq, Afghanistan? Why are we such grand assholes? Why do we think we are always right? Just my simple observations.

Because many Americans, as well as our "fearless" leaders, feel that it's our responsibility to keep the world safe from terrorism...at least that's the latest mantra. Just listen to Hillary, Obama, and McCain.

i wish i had answers too.. i feel ya med..

if there was only something we could do? the only way i feel like we could make change is if we got enough people informed about the atrocities and how the gov't has been pulling the wool over everyones eyes.

we would all need to come together and unite. we need a peoples union, its clear that the gov't is not working for the people of the united states. we need to put all the bullshit behind and think about the big picture and not fight over whos a democrat, republican, right, left, conservative, libby, etc...

or if we demanded RON PAUL in office we would be saved

Why? It is exceedingly simple -- because we can. And when the day comes when we can't, well...

Theres always a flip side , Say the U.s dident help the brits in world war 2 ,Every one would possibly German now ..

The same as the great british empire trying to law other countrys when there armys have cause as much blood and war as any ..
The flip side its what has paved the way to how we live comfortably today and not like india with open sewers factorys stacked on top of each other dead dogs on the street rats running wild , a healthy ecomeny we have good hospitals , edcution , are nice homes every thing we take for granted is because of hunders of years of power struggling

Its the same as America taking control now days some one has to do it its not always correct and many innocent lives get lost , But if some of of these evil people did not get stoped what would of happened ,Hitler ,Sadaam , Bin Ladden the list goes on , what if they did not get stoped

I hate the way it all works its bully boy tactics Thou When it gets down to it id rather have the yanks being the worlds super power and not that evil chinese leader .or russia were promoting there New powerful rich and strong army on tv world wide this morning it just looked like the Hitler and Nazi,s starting all over again

I dont see the need for each country to have there own army in the day and age its just some of them other countrys are a bit scary if we are honest and i feel more comfortable with the yanks in control

Instead of dwelling on what's wrong with America, how about concentrating on what's right?

Listen medicine, Maybe you are on the fronlines fighting against all this, but if you arent, then how is posting here going to help?
If you want action, fight for it. If you dont like what someone else is doing, change it.
And as for afghanistan and Iraq. if you cannot give me a solution that iwll work ,besides "pull all the troops out" lets here it. How about the taliban that was in afghan before us? Why dont you post how they took al the women out of any schools or jobs and left babies to starve if they didnt kill them outright?
Why dont you post on how saddams tortured peopl by having their arms and legs surgically removed and then sending them home like that. Or how he used chemical weapons and nerve agants on the kurds?
No offense, but all i ever see form you are one sided arguements that are all based on how you "feel". I'm sorry ,but you cannot run anything on your emotions and what you think is right.I feel bad for a lot of poele too, but if we werent over there, who would be?
WHy dont you take your time to come up with a solution and then making it happen?Hell, what do you do in your own community that is making it a better place?
And once again medicine,I mean no offense. I realixe your heart is in the right place. its just that the time for talking about the problems has come and gone. What was once conservative is now liberal. What was once liberal is no more.The middle rungs on the ladder to succes have disaperaed altogether, but yet there is no action anywhere being taken.
What this world needs is an enema.
