What does America want?

People say that Sadams father was in conflict with the father of George bush and that's why George fought with Sadam and killed him. That's the first reason. Another is America said "Iraq is building nuclear weapons" to get the chance to fight for the oil. The actual reason for the war in Iraq was for the Oil. They took the oil out of Iraq to US and than said" O, there isn't any weapon, we were wrong." The same they are doing to Iran now. As I can see America is blaming only the Islamic nations on having Nuclear weapon. Why doesn't it say that for Russia, Japan, and china which also have nuclear weapon?

"POWER... UNLIMITED POWER!!"" HA HA HA HA
(the emperor from Star Wars lol)

If dick cheney (a name that suits) is Darth Vader, who's the emperor??


Peace

Satan is the dark side emperor.

oh, and he has lost!

Jesus retook the world long ago.

Why is it always America? If it weren't for America this world would be in total choas. Everyone would be speaking German or Japanese. Everytime something bad happens to a country we're there for them, but anything happens in America there's no one. Everybody is jealous that we have the best country in the world and they all want it! America wants peace.

lol... how many countries do you actually KNOW?

United States is far from the "best country in the world".

Peace

Oh course the American government wants peace...it's just that i reckon the way they want to get peace is by initiating that whole NWO jingo and sticking everyone underneath their power as slaves.

And why not? That way they get both peace AND all the power in the world. It's win win for them. Only downer is that it's lose lose for the rest of humanity.

Just a slight clarification to your initial ramblings.

Japan does not have nuclear weapons.

Alan Greenspan said it was about oil in his recent book. I think this is true, but I think they also wanted this rise in the price of oil at least for the present (perhaps the price of oil actually will go down if they ever start pumping a lot out of Iraq). Bush and his buddies have cashed in like vultures, while the rest of us have felt the pain at the pump.

Peace if only the other country first agrees to open its resources and labor to our companies, and our economic system where share holders(who don't live in other country) get the profits from said resources and labor.

Unless you misspelled and meant America wants a piece of every part of the world.

And I live in America, but I also know a little history.

I laugh when people say we are the best country also.

I disagree with most of your points in measurements determining the "greatness" of a country, as they're subjective, but you've got to be out of your mind if you believe the US has the largest debt (as % of GDP) or lowest tax rate for the highest bracket.

Folks, it's called a war for resources.. We can sit back and let Communist China grab it before we do, then the whole freaking world will be in trouble. Naw, "Dear ol' China" would never do that.

I know there's alot of bullcrap going on in America and alot of politicians are selling us out. But there is not another country that I would want to live in. Don't get me wrong, I like all the countries and wish them well, but I'm not selling out America. I just wish everyone against the government would rise up and put a stop to the governments take over. I want less government and more citizens involved with our country. But the sad thing is that the democrats put on their labels and complain, the republicans put on their labels and complain, everybody puts on their labels and complains but nobody is doing anything about it. I love my country just like every one loves their own country, but I hate whats going on in America with these politicians .

About voting, the hell with the fellons and alot of other people too! You don't have a right to vote in america and it's not in the constitution. There's alot of people that don't need to vote in america but that's another topic for discussion.
