The US wants world peace. It wants governments to be kind to their citizens. It promotes health and security, food development, self-defense, and cooperation with neighboring countries.
The US is not an imperialistic nation. We want our military to be safe and well supplied to prevent wars and terrorist attacks. We appreciate each veteran that serves. We do not want to waste their time or their lives in pursuit of conquering the world.

So if I understand what you said, it's that America is hated because of the wars we get involved in.
I wish we could have known that about 1917.
Could have saved a lot of American boys lives by staying home.
Then we wouldn't have had to go BACK again just a generation later, and could have REALLY saved some American lives - and TONS of money.
Could have avoided all that lend/lease, and then the cleanup and reconstruction with the Marshall Plan.
Don't know if the winner would have been Russia or Germany, but it would definitely been one or the other.
Wow. All of Europe either Nazi, or Communist.
Then we wouldn't be HAVING this discussion.

The USA is about the only damned country that actually TRIES to limit civilian casualties so... NO. Our mission (in my opinion) is to keep all the rest of the loons from killing themselves (and us in the process). So three cheers for having to be the planets freeking peacekeeper... a thankless job and a very expensive one.

Without the support Americans gave Hitler and the Nazi party, there may have been no world war II.

Who was it who said the sanctions against Iraq were worth the deaths they caused of half a million Iraqi infants?

So many tears were shed on 9/11 over ~3000 dead, but how many Americans shed a tear over the ~500,000 babies they had murdered?

With all the "So called underground bases" the weapondry, the military spending. Why does any other nation bother in fighting america? how could they win. Imagine the weapons the US will release when a major war happens. no nation even spends 1/6th the amount America does. The wepons they have must be unimagineable. If Dulce, or other bases exist and the stuff thats happening down there is really real it would even be more terrifying. Could Russia even compete with the U.S.A??? Could all of Europe even compete with them?
