Quote:They should die for commiting acts of genecide or murder. They should not die because the US disagrees with their idealogies and opinions.
But what if that country feels that genocide is a good thing? Wouldn't attacking them mean we are attacking them because we disagree with their opinion? War is all about opinions, you can't have one without the other because at its core War comes down to one side disagreeing with another.
Quote:I feel it is not up to the US to dictate world policy.
Half the time we're told not to do anything, yet the other half of the time countries and people cry out for our health. We're not supposed to use our power, yet we're supposed to use our power to help. Saving the Iraqi people is bad, but sending aid to Afrika is a good and noble cause. Being the most powerful nation is a curse, not a blessing, no matter what the country does it will be seen as the wrong thing by certain countries.
Quote:Instead, that responsibility rests on an amalgamation of the leadears of all countries.
Tried that, hasn't worked. Countries are selfish, it theory it would be nice if everyone could get along and make decisions but the human factor fucks it all up.
