Well this kind of response is expected. When one nation begins to amass too
much power to themselves, even if they intend to use it wisely and for the
good of the human population, others will begin to see it as an enemy. To
the others' credit though, all nations who have had this kind of power have
said this. But to the USA's credit, this time the fundamental difference is
that its leader is not seeking world domination. He's going to be gone at
the latest in 5 to 6 years.

The possible solution to this mess is for the USA to withdraw into its own
borders. But this isn't a good idea for the US to do, since now with the
proliferation of nuclear and chemical weapons, the USA's enemies will be
able to attack it and hide from it from anywhere in the world. Which is why
the USA sees the need to go out into the world and find these people.

The other solution is the solution of the past problems like this. Wipe the
USA's military forces and thus economic force out. The USA will cease to be
the only superpower and will leave the European Union to rise in its place.
But even though Gaulists would appreciate this move, it wouldn't ideal to
the international community in the short run, since much of the world
economy and therefore profit is generated by US interests. However in the
long run the economy will pick up again once industry finds the time to
shift its operations from America over to Europe. Businessmen won't like
this because it means loss of profit. They can't gain the profit back
during the time of change. France and China are ideal candidates to
initiate this type of change.

The only other solution that I can think of is for all countries to be
consolodated into one global state. Nice for those of us who are fans of
Emperor Palpatine, but not a good solution in general.

The most ideal solution for a world of greed and jealously and most
importantly impatience would then be to see the demise of the United States
superpower. Or you could just wait out the next few years and solidify
dipolomatic ties with President Hillary. When she gets into the oval
office, you may actually have to worry about global domination. But at
least the war on terror will be history. Patience is the key.

Drippingly yours,

Oil smoil. Investigate France and Russia. They're the ones with the oil
for food contracts.

It would be prudent and wise in my opinion for everyone to not throw insults
like this back and forth.

Just let their actions speak for themselves.

But in what cases? I think it has gone with the courts on several
occasions. I recall something being mentioned about agriculture production
in one of my economics classes but I'm not sure.

War issues mostly. US soldiers cannot be held responsible for
their crimes against International Law they did during wars.

Might be UN has failed, however, UN was established after WW II to prevent a
new "Hitler" . The actions of USA in this case are very similar to what
Germany did before WW II. Make demands you know cannot be fulfilled. Claim
the other country to be a treat. Go to war, dont care what the rest of world
is thinking.
It is exremely dangerous when someone especially in the security council
goes solo. It takes away all ( the little that was left) credibility from
UN. We are going back to a similar time than the 30-ies. This time we have
international rules and laws, but they are ignored, it is like having none
at all.
Everyone seems to be bashing Saddam for not following this and that rule.
Yet they have found no proof he has braken any of these rules. People seems
to ignore the fact that when USA attack Iraq, it is not more justified than
when Saddam attacked Kuwait. An attack is an attack.
My point has not been bashing USA ( Bush yes). If some country do not
follow international law, it deserves to be bashed, may it be Sierra Leone,
Iraq or even allmighty USA.

A while back I was surfing the website of CNN and they were calling the
possible iraqi war something like the liberation of the iraqi people. I
think press should try to be neutral and a media that call ANY war a
liberation etc cannot be trustworthy.

FYI i never watch CNN i prefer NBC news. and guess what.... our news is news not made up government shit like goes on around the world. If our news oganizations are not truthfull they do not last long .. We happen to know the truth when it slaps us in the face, unlike many other nations. We do have a freedom of speech....to let people like yourselves spout off your drivel..... WE(as americans) can see right through your lies. Why you may ask.? Because we have had free speech all our lives....we know how to handle it. The people of MOST other countries cannot handle free speech....so when they think they have the ability to speek freely....they feel that speaking lies is ok....cause ya CAN do it...hehehe ... Lie on people WE see right through it. <grin>

whats up with americans and thier love for themselfs? jeeze, america is not
the center of the world, and the UN would do much better at making peaceful
resoultions if america wasnt in it anyway! oh, and britain can go aswell,
hell all they do is agree with what america has to say.
as for the building, bush can take it, sit on it, and spin on it for all

who said anything about saddam not being a threat to his people?
but what could kill more innocents, a ruler who kills those who stand in his
way, or a war which will kill all, weather standing, sitting or crawling?i
mean, if they atleast went into iraq, snatched saddam, and went back out,
without bombing the whole country to the ground, then it wouldnt be so bad.

responded to it, but yet it is credited to ALL Americans, apparently. Can
you tell me without making any generalizations swe, why do Lybians always
generalize like that? ;-)

What in the world does that have to do with anything, right or wrong, good
or bad, American or otherwise? Are you grasping for ways to make yourself
seem right or him wrong? I sure don't think that that adds to your
credibility or take away from his, whether it's even the case or not. Do you
really?

I belive nations are to belived to be what picture they give to the rest of
the world . In other worlds what shows is believed to be the "voice" of the
entire nation. Finns are for example considered shy and quiet, we have weird
habits like hitting ourselves with branches of birch, we drink a lot of
vodka and are more or less drunk all the time. We also like to fight with
knives.
Personally I drink about once per 3 year or so, but since we are considered
to be drunks, not much I can do about it, just live with it and make fun of
it :)
So I belive when ppl say "americans" they do not refer to every single
citizen of USA, but more like to the "noisiest" group that we as foreigner
see, and that group happens to be the president in your case. It is often
easier to see faults from outside, so I am sure "americans" see the faults
of "europeans" better than we do ourselves ?
