QUOTE I'm not too sure about this, so correct me if I'm wrong.. BUT Japan doesn't have a much of a military compare to the USA. Infact, someone told me that they depend on American military more than ever simply because their tax money goes towards education the most and the least goes to military, or something like that. I'm sure they don't mind US presence in their country. Yeah.. I think that's right.. but Japan's more of an example.. I mean.. like Iraq or something, and the ongoing war on terrorism (which has no foreseeable end as of yet..).. why should we police the world? We dont even wait for UN approval anymore.. this country seems to be taking a turn down a very dark road.. EDIT:// QUOTE but since teddy roosevelt we've been "the constable of the world", but now it seems like we're just bossing everyone around. Exactly.. it seems like the onli valid opinion, the onli valid government (for example), is our own.. if other countries dont model after us, they're wrong.. at least that seems to be the attitude the politicians are taking.. |
