| I'll give that video 4 out of 10 A country has a right to defend itself against attack as well as defend her allies. I do believe that America uses excessive military force way too much but I don't think it turned into the 4th reich. I am intrested in learning how Britain has helped out in the middle east and in Africa. What amazing things have they done to prevent conflicts? The Pacific and South y Central America are our problems and I don't expect them to do anything about them but Europe hasn't exactly had a history of lending a hand to others.

And the Middle East: what have we done to prevent conflicts? We have a sensational appetite for exacerbating mid-east conflict, as well as terrorism against us and our allies. You can sit back and support neo-imperialism by this military industrial-complex all you want, but all it's going to end up doing is killing and oppressing others while causing more hatred toward our country around the world.

I wasn't saying we were better than them, I'm pretty sure we're worse. I just don't think a European should be calling us evil and act like they are the victim. We have way more than Europe since most of the Latin American countries gained their independence. I don't support how the MIC create conflicts but once America is attacked or an ally is attacked it doesn't matter how it started we have a duty to protect ourselves or our ally. I think the government needs to rethink how we go about doing this.

| I said that every time America uses millitary force it's not just to be an imperialistic evil nation. I didn't justify every attack by the US.

| I understand that, but the reasons behind the attack, and the twisting of intel, were evidence of the facism we were talking about. At the least, evidence of invasion for capitalism.
