I don't see a problem with us becoming imperialistic. I am tired of our military saving countries from idiotic rulers and us not getting additional states. I think the bigger we are the better.

I strongly disagree. The smaller government is, the better. This was the original intention of our forefathers.

Or guys that are considered bad by their government or anyone else who happens to be in the wrong place at the wrong time.

I don't disagree with you about the original intent. I believe socially, and fiscally along your lines. I have trouble in the area of securing our interests abroad. I feel we need to be proactive to prevent attempts at world domination by our enemies.

Were we right to attack Germany in WW2? They had not directly attacked us.

Every nation is sovereign.


When they knock down 2 buildings killing 3000 people they lose their sovereignty.
when they kill their own people as Saddam did, they lose their sovereignty.

If you don't like it, attack us and lose your own sovereignty.
you have no other choice's, you think you do, but look around, you don't.
End of story.

I don't dislike all of the troops. I dislike those that are irresponsible and misrepresent this great country and our principles. These few soldiers, who do not deserve to dawn the starts and stripes on their arm, only exasperate our problem with anti-American sentiment - especially in the Middle East. Those few, are criminals and should be tried as such. Being a soldier should not mean that they are not responsible for their actions which could be construed as "inappropriate" or "immoral".

In short: I dislike those few Soldiers that are murderers. I draw a distinction between killing and murder.

So... we should conquer the world so nobody else can? Hypocrite much?

There are a few here who hate the troops who are defending this nation vehemently.
Who they are is obvious.. no matter how hard they try to shroud it.

Does a country lose it's sovereignty when it invades it's neighbor, unprovoked? If so, America lost it's sovereignty in 1846 when it invaded Mexico.

Now before everyone jumps on me for being anti-American, I'm not saying that we are a bad country. I'm only saying that we should not be so quick to judge others.
