Heh, the only thing the rest of the world is able to do is to disapprove of the USA actions while it does what ever it pleases. Sad but true.
very well put...........why is it only America that every country complains about when other countries do the same or worse.......hmmmm.....and its usually the ones that do the same or worse that complain the most.....hmmm.
 
probably because the lesser of two evils is still, by definition, EVIL.

And if you place yourself on the moral high ground, then you should probably behave in a manner consistent with your "convictions".

BTW, anyone read the news tonight........Dubya says Saddam had nought to do with 9-11.
 
Gee, there's a fucking surprise......right now, several million trailer park trash American's are confused as fuck, given that recent polls told us that 69% of yanks thought Saddam was behind it, despite a complete lack of evidence.........
Now good ol' Dubya has said he wasn't, who the fuck they gonna believe now????

"Hmmmm"...you're a fuckwit!! Hmmmmm......put simply, probably because America has more of an interventionist foreign policy then most countries put together.......as well as being the world's largest proliferator of weapons of mass destruction, whilst LOUDLY decrying their use.........that is, any weapons that aren't sold by America - it's perfectly fine and dandy as long as the missiles have got 'Made in the USA' stamped on 'em........YEE - HAH!!!!!!!
 
Nightwing, what's that old saying...."Lay down with dogs, wake up with fleas" ?

Seems our bloved motherland has been hanging around those with interventionist policies for too long, and Little Johnny, and Mr Fishnets (Downer) have picked up a few concepts.

AMIEN RAIS: Australia is a very big country, so it has a role in this Asia Pacific area, everybody will understand, but of course Australia has still to respect the sovereignty, the independence of other countries.

NICK MCKENZIE: Well keeping with that, our Foreign Minister Alexander Downer has expressed the view that sovereignty is not absolute. That is, Australian intervention into a sovereign nation is permissible if, for instance, there's a breakdown of law and order in that nation. Do you agree with that view?

AMIEN RAIS: No. I mean, yes if the break of law and order of a special country will spill over to the neighbouring countries and will destabilise the whole region, but no if the break of law and order is limited to the country, and then if the country is able to overcome its own problem, we'd better support the country, but not by sending soldiers or military forces, but by giving moral, diplomatic and political support. This is even wiser because to me, if a country sends a military force or police force to another country, it will create more problems.
