A very cute, very fluffy, warm and fuzzy post. For all that, and for all the verbiage set forth in it, not ONCE, not in ONE SINGLE PLACE, was there a solid reference to any law that had been broken, which would make the wars "illegal".
Quite simple really.
International law is quite clear about that.
You can defend yourself if attacked.
You can appeal to the UN for help, and if all nations agree on a police action, the UN as a whole responds.
Americans hate law and justice.
Americans hate the Geneva convention
Americans hate the UN
Americans hate the International Court.
But Americans love war, death and deadly force.
When you own vicious Government turns upon you, nothing will save you.
a special comment by the UN regarding this since USA violated and breached one of the corner stones of the UN charter - invasion of a soverign country without the support of the rest of the world community in a second resolution!

No you never cave in.
Never back down.
Never compromise.
Never surrender.
That is why, when American starts killing American in the coming anarchy, it will never end.
Some of you think that when you have killed all the bad guys, all Americans will give up their guns and agree to live in peace and total trust with each other.
That will never happen.
Can't you see, your love of violence, viciousness, and deadly force is going to destroy you all ?
Do you really believe that death and destruction of other Americans is going to somehow return your country to wealth , prosperity and power ?

Your first four sentences were really, really good.
When it goes down, yes, there will be one hell of a mess for a while. But we'll get it sorted out.
Tell me, what would have to happen for Americans to give up their guns and live in peace with each other ?
There was no UN resolution against America, simply because none was ever possible.
Even if all other nations were determined to pass such a resolution, the US has the power to veto it.
So you are asking for the impossible.
But please note, that your illegal invasion and occupation of Iraq has not been at all successful.
The Iraqi people, backed by unlimited resources are still fighting the US military occupation, and quite effectively too.
You might think the US is quite right, but the entire world disagrees with you.

All I hear is Americans saying they are going to keep on killing other Americans as long as they are able to do so.

To succeed in anything, game, business, warfare, you need a plan, an objective.

Your enemies are laughing their asses off at that.

I'm pretty sure there IS a plan, AND an objective.

I agree with you Common Good.
America would do far better to concentrate on the economy, border security, and cleaning up the US political and justice systems.
But sadly, a great many Americans still see world domination and plunder by deadly force of the rest of mankind, as some God given right.

Plan for Global leadership ?
There you go, not plan to get along with other nations peacefully, but LEADERSHIP, presumably by force.
I wish you luck in leading the world after you have had your revolution.
America will be lucky to survive at all as a nation once the shooting starts.
