America needs Australia's help??? are you being serious? Hahaha......
Why is China allowed to fight with their own allies, but USA cant use NATO? If it was just a heads up battle US vs China, the US would wipe China off the map...

Would that make you happy if China used a nuclear weapon on LA and NY? I'm beginning to get that weird feeling that you are one of those people that enjoy watching bad things happen to USA... Was 9/11 a good day for you?
As a young adult around the year 2000. I wasnt very political. I was still left but busy with things. The world seemed ok. Then Im watching tv one night with an ex-girlfriend and the news takes over the tv showing New York and the Twin Towers. One of the towers has smoke pouring from the top. I see people jumping from windows. I see a plane come flying along and smash into the other tower. Im thinking,oh my #ing god. i see a tower fall. Then I see another. I see world leaders messages to America coming across the screen including from Saddam. All are saying they are shocked and will help. Im trying to think who would do this? I watched American 24 hour news for the next few months. It was all i did. In that time I see the US Army sent to Afghanistan to kill Afghanis. I was shocked that no media questioned this action. Just blind support. But worse,I see that soon after the attack America is bombing Government buildings in iraq. This was a civillian area. I was outraged. Im wondering why on earth are America dropping bombs on innocent people. The news said they were trying to target Saddam and his family. Like that made it ok. i still havent gotten over it. Only a small part of the people of the west seemed to care or even notice. We all know it only got worse from there. So while the War on terror is being kicked off,Im still left and liberal and very ant-war. People like me waited years to get rid of Howard in Australia nad bush in America. I was so happy when that happened. Finally,we would end the wars and killing. But oh no. The left parties turn out to be as bad,if not worse. The wars and killing continue.

Isolating our nation would allow us to buy and manufature our own products (like we used to before we started trying to build other national economies).

IF 9/11 was bad then why does usa govt support al qaeda?USA supporting Al Qaeda gives credence to the theory that Al Qaeda is controlled by CIA and CIA used al qaeda to attack usa.
Controlled demolition or not.Then CIA was involved in murdering 3000 american citizens.

Funny how everyone's hand is always out for help in one way or another. If other nations don't/won't help, things may get real ugly.
America should have sat back and watched every other nation/country get annihilated.

I asked you a question... You shoudlnt take such offense to simple questions... You are the one who keeps talking about nuclear weapons going off on US soil, so its not that far fetched to think the way I did... You are exhibiting much hate for my country on this thread and I simply connected the dots in my own head...
I am sorry if it truly offended you... There are many people around the world and here on ATS that would take enjoyment out of watching bad things happen on US soil... So please understand that my response was based soley off of that...

You do realize that the US is one of the leading countries in aid to Somalia and has been for years?
US Aid Horn Of Africa
He briefed the Somali officials on the humanitarian aid that the Islamic Republic has so far sent to the famine-wracked African country, saying Iran will continue sending aid cargos to Somalia and is ready to help steer the country through the crisis. The Somali prime minister thanked Iran for sending humanitarian aid to Somalia and asked the Iranian nation and government to keep on sending aid to his country.
