that are essential to keep your country safe. It is not like the U.S. could isolate itself and then everything would be all tooty-fruity; if the U.S.
did that, it would waken its military power, and then the Soviet Union or a new Chinese Union would arise or what not.
your not? sure looks like it from our perspective. and please stop with the , "the reds might invade" BS.
you dont have to control, you can trade. you know be peaceful.
uhh no it would improve its image and would actually work on its homeland.
The U.S. doesn't tax the world or anything; the U.S. has to have military forces all over so that NO ONE ELSE tries to control the world. Yeah, other
countries don't like that, but oh well, that's just how it is. There is no other way. All that stuff about "pleasing other countries" B.S. the
only way you could please any of them is to weaken yourself to their current states, which the U.S. won't do right now.
oh yeah who's going to take over the world huh? the russians? NATO? the chinese?
dude you live in a paranoid country.
uhh no you dont need to please them , you just need to actually give them a chance before bombing thier rear ends to hades and back.
As for China, they drove over their own people with tanks, so who can blame the Taiwanese for wanting to break away?? The U.S. hasn't done anything
like that; also, Cuba was a legitimate threat. So the U.S. wanted those weapons removed. Taiwan is a threat to China if it has weapons, but China is a
dictatorship country that wants to conquer Taiwan. The U.S. was not some dictatorship nation that wanted to conquer Cuba; they just didn't want Cuba
posing as any threat, especially for the Soviet Union at the time.
does this mean the whole of china is bad? or is this another american generalisation. yes not to its own citizens but to other countries yes.
why would it want to conquer what it already owns. no your not a dictatorship just a capatalist one a very corupt one.
Also, I don't know if Taiwan will end up back with China, because I don't think the U.S. wants to let China have a "base" in the Southeast Asian
area right now; the U.S. doesn't want China to establish any significant naval presence. So who knows.
what do you mean back with they are still with them.
why not isnt it the right for a country to have a navy to defend themselves.
those scumbags , defending themselves! man you should show them!
