Now I believe you're starting to get it. The countries of all these anti-US posters have been causing way more blood to be shed for profit, greed, etc. for a much longer period of time than the U.S. So, by definition, what they are saying is nothing but total hypocrisy.
As a previous poster said, if it's - as you say - all about the money, simply pay the U.S. off and you can have your "peace".
Of course, I never thought it was all about the money ...

You say we are bullies and shouldn't prevent Iran from having weapons. But because of of the years of oppression on the Muslim people in your countries, Britain and other European parties are a big hit list for Iran. And President Mahmoud Ahmadinejad has said so. Not to mention he said he will invade Israel.
Normally would I care? No. But I am feeling a little sensitive right now.But my grandfather died recently. A man who volunteered the entire length of WWII to keep you from German occupation. Who spent the rest of his life partially deaf from the noise and gunfire on the battlefields. For a people to turn on us at the first sign of trouble, who have created their very own troubles that are the same.

Someone (I am sorry I can't remember who) once said that you can tell how great a country is by looking to see how many people are trying to get out vs. how many are trying to get in. Glean from this what you want but I think it says volumes about our great country of USA

Did I say that Japan was without blood on their hands?
Or do you want me to start typing out every single atrocity commited in the past 200-300 years? I'll never finish.

Germany, Japan and, to a lesser extent, Britain and Italy, were lifted out of the debris of war by the Americans who poured in billions of dollars and forgave other billions in debts. None of those countries is today paying even the interest on its remaining debts to the United States.
