China kills its citizens? You truly have no eyes sir.
This Dana Priest article is interesting for the way it fleshes out the way the US is working in Yemen (primarily), Pakistan, and Somalia. But note this line, which she kind of buries in there.
As part of the operations, Obama approved a Dec. 24 strike against a compound where a U.S. citizen, Anwar al-Aulaqi, was thought to be meeting with other regional al-Qaeda leaders. Although he was not the focus of the strike and was not killed, he has since been added to a shortlist of U.S. citizens specifically targeted for killing or capture by the JSOC, military officials said. [my emphasis]
That is, somewhere there’s a list of Americans who, the President has determined, can be killed with no due process

Should have taken MacArthur's advice and taken care of them when we had the chance. It's going to be much messier now. And it is only a matter of time, IMO...
And we can always thank a Democrat for firng General MacArthur.
Star and flag! In the 65 years since the end of the Second World War, the United States has been called on by the governments of so many nations for aid in one form or another. We give, give, give, give and give. Our young men and women have made the supreme sacrifice for these foreign governments and their people.
What do we get in return? Our civilians kidnapped, tortured and killed. Images from around the world saying "DIe Yankee Die." Planes being flown into buildings in the center of metropolitan areas. This is the "Thank you America" for the billions of American dollars and thousands upon thousands of American lives. To the Devil with rest of the world (commies and theocratical governments). We owe them nothing and they owe us nothing.
In fact, we may owe them an apology because our liberal thinking government is to blame for their backward mentality they possess today.

You can NEVER give up your right's. PERIOD
I find it disheartening to see people pretend to be American patriots yet completely fail to understand what a right is.

I acknowledge these faults but I also know that we peacefully solve these problems quickly.

I am no flag-waving zombie, but I love my country dearly.That's not the same as endorsing everything our government does.In fact I'm pretty pissed at our government right now.....
But one thing I don't understand: if America is so horrible, then why are thousands of people trying so desperately to come here every single day?? Doesn't make sense that so many people would want to come live in such an evil place...
And I'd also like to point out: whenever another country needs help militarily, or with food, or with a natural disaster,etc etc who does everyone always come running to? Sweden? Peru? Iceland? Bolivia? No....they come running to America.And guess what? We never, EVER say "no".....
