An attempt to go off topic ? May be.
Pointless ? I don't think so.

And what if I write " seeing problem inside is denying problems elsewhere ? "

There are problems EVERYWHERE. Not ONLY in the USA. And you can say what you want about the USA or any other western nations, I'm sure about something. If you had to emigrate somewhere,and had ONLY 2 options, in exemple, the USA and China, at the end, you would go to the USA and NOT to China.

May be if you had another option, like France, Germany, or England you would go there and not in the USA, but it doesn't change anything.It would be allways a western nation. And don't tell me that I'm wrong, otherwise I'll ask you why all these peoples want to emigrate in Occident, and not " somewhere else ".

Since the begining, and even before their creation, the USA have been ALLWAYS a land where the peoples were going to avoid persecutions.Protestant leaving Europe, due to many persecutions is just an exemple. There are tons and tons of these exemples ( peoples ) leaving their nations because they were persecuted.

Vietnam boatpeoples didn't chose Cuba or China.Most of them chosed the USA, and some others New-Zealand, Australia and Europe. But these peoples have something in common. They all chosed a western nation, and in most of the cases, the USA.

So yes, the USA are not perfect. Anyway, nations or peoples, who/what can be perfect ? Then, I'll not say the USA are a perfect nation, but we know all something ( yes, even you ), that it could be interesting to see what's going wrong and what's going well, all over the world. I bet my right arm that we'll see the USA and the other western nation are the better place to live and die.

So, it wasn't irrelevant to write : " Funny. When it comes to the USA, we have a lot of people opposed to the US so-called brutality, corruption and lying. But when it comes to others nations, like Irak, North-Korea, China, Iran, Arabia, Libya...etc..etc...We don't heard these peoples anymore. Strange isn't it ? "

Because it's true. We don't hear them when it comes to the other nation.We just hear them when it comes to complain about the USA.

I'll listen what these peoples have to say about the USA when I'll hear them saying something about the rest of the world, where it's really the BIG #.

I'll listen them, when they'll say something about what all these dictatorship did to their owns peoples and the rest of the world.

I'll listen them when they'll apologise for their unconditional support to these dictatorships and their rulers. In exemple, Robert Mugabe, who's "just" a little tyrant without any importance, like another one, but also a racist and someone who did and still do everything to starve his peoples.

History showed me that these peoples were telling us to don't take any measure against Hitler didn't change and are still now what they were before. In fact, peoples who like to shout against democracy, but shut the heck up when it come to a dictatorship, especially if that dictatorship has the " chance " to be a third world country.
