Yes, you are right about that.

Which is, at best, a lie and at worse an arrogant attempt at creating self importance. No one really cares what you do in the world as long as you keep your long ugly noses out of other people's business. The Soviet Union was a superpower, so is Russia today and so will China be in the near future. No one really looks at Russia and says, "What the hell are you going to do about that?" just because Russia is a superpower.

I do recall the genocide of Rwanda and I also recall that no one really criticised the US except France and Belgium who needed to cover their backsides by shifting the blame on US.

Can you give any proof that any person in political/military authority made such a public statement? You are simply bringing up empty claims that have no factual evidence whatsoever.

If someone tries to argue about something that know little to nothing about, it is not a sign of anything but plain stupidtity.

Smart people know that they should get into an argument against an opponent who is far better equipped than they are. For example, a smart person wouldn't get into an argument about geopolitics or military psychological profiling with no training, experience or authority in the area. Replacing them with Anglo-American media catchwords like "we are superpower, everyone needs our help" is not going to help in here.

I drew up the psychological profile with my team, after comprehensive scientific analyses of the mentality of American military personnell. Which is based on personal experiences, experiences of others and decades of American military history. Unless neurosciences advance to an extent that beliefs can be decoded to material or electronic existence, there is little that one can do to 'prove' what the typical American combatant believes. In case you are not aware, psychological profiles are never taken as 'factual proof', any more than police 'confessions' are taken a courtroom evidences. Both are at best, guides for further understanding of the subject or the crime; there are always room for modification or exceptions.

I never said that everyone needs our help. You are twisting my words.

In any case, I've said what I wanted to say and will probably say no more on the subject because it really is useless for me to argue with someone.

You cannot judge the people based on their government.

In terms of the recent dilemma with British troops drawing friendly fire from American Soilders, I guarentee you it was an accident. Like it or not - It is still a military conflict and things like this can happen.

You said everyone asks for your help when the US doesn't poke its nose into other countries' business. You indirectly suggested that the world is dependant on United States, there isn't much to twist about it. If the people of third world countries like Iraq had a choice, they'd rather go to hell than take 'help' of Americans. The United States never 'helped' a country except for its own political or economic benefits.

You are not the first one to make such a remark, if I got a pound for every American who made such a nationalist egoistic statement, I'd have made enough money to fund one of them a world trip.

Generally, when someone says this in a debate or argument, it translates to "I have run out of points for the debate/argument."

Hating America does not make you racist. It makes you fit in with the rest of the world. America is not on the best terms with other countries at this time, and a lot of people have a lot of reasons to hate America. But don't hate americans because we're not the bad ones, our leaders are.

Oh, and if you're going to rip on the soldiers, don't. The heat of war drives you to insanity, and injuring someone, killing someone, becomes second nature in war. The soldiers, all of them, are risking their lives, and they may go insane during that process. War is a terrible weapon.

Absolutely True!

I thought that was all on purpose. Dating back to Truman. To protect other free peoples, from outside forces. We have been acting as a world cop ever since.

Which, I don't think we should be doing it.
