But that quite clearly means that morality does not influence which nations the US considers allies. Basically it does not matter whether there is a bloodthirsty ruler leading a country. What matters is whether they like the US or not.
That justifies support of the saudi tyrant. Fair enough.. That's what you call realpolitik. Quote:

But you can't have your cake and eat it too. If you wish to not consider what the rest of the world think, then by all means go ahead. In fact i know MANY countries who would breathe a sigh of relief if the US just butted out.
But on the other hand if your nation wishes to police the world, then it MUST consider what the rest of the world thinks of it. Otherwise it becomes what?? yeeees.. a TYRANT. And we all know americans don't like tyrants. Quote:

You're country is infested with terrorists and it's not our fault pal. It's the fault of your clerics who run those schools of hatred brainwashing children to hate the west, Jews, and Christians. You might want to work on that if you want to make a better world. Your priorities are skewed. | Hey dude i aint invading your country, OR putting undue pressure, OR threatening sanctions, OR supporting rebels in your country. I am merely stating certain opinions.
You are ABSOLUTELY RIGHT about the fact that the Pakis must fix their own problems before they try to get others to fix theirs. CLean your own house first.
But the same goes for the US. THe US is far from being a perfect nation ( other than in your collective imagination). There is too much intereference and bullying going on, and i am suggesting the US stop that before it shoots itself in the foot ( again).
BTW you know who gives the bearded crazies material to spread hatred? It's unjust actions committed by the US AND the ensuing arrogant rejection of criticism that proves the hate rhetoric RIGHT.
YOu know how the terrorists really are as bad as you say? YOu really are as bad as the terrorists say americans are.
Both parties are nuts Love for all, Hatred for none
