But Cameron also said that countries should be allowed to develop themselves and if that means revolting, then it should be up to a people to do this with minimal or no outside influence. I agree with that. But we invaded Iraq. A mistake? Who cares at this point? Bitching about it does nothing. However just I dont buy into the dogma of war critics who claim to have the Iraqi people's best interests at heart. So many people around the world are rooting against America. People like Cameron and Ikarti wouldnt have anything to do if America stopped making mistakes. I bet the two of you were doing backflips when it turned out that no WMDs were uncovered simply because you wanted to hate on America. That sort of mentality really frightens me. Why cant people just try to give the US the benefit of the doubt for a change? You would think that the world would cut us a little more slack seeing as how America has benefitted the world much, much more than it has harmed it. The great majority of everything created in the last century that is worth a sh*t was done so by Americans. Everything from electricity to the internet to TV to vaccines and medication. Aww, Cameron, you dont like that every few years America does something that isnt to your liking? Well, try to balance that with the fact that your life expectancy is probably 10 years longer than it would be without the US and that cars, planes, radios... everything in your life that makes it easier is owed to American ingenuity, not drunken Irish panhandling. Show some respect. If you want to criticize, do so but do it with respect. You too Ikarti.
lol, who cares at this point? Many, many people. And your frightened people comment upon your nations actions?, well that frightens me. Also by stating the world should 'cut you some slack' you kind of imply some level of wrongdoing on your nations part, and as for the us been a benefit to the rest of the world that depends on who you ask. Just make sure its not an Iraqi, or a Vietnamese fella, or a native indian living in a caravan, or a palastinian getting shot with an m16, or even an old black fella who fondly remembers the 60's. Oh and John Logie Baird, not a yank, invented TV. You sir are a fool, i cannot be arsed to point out any more irregularitys in your post but id suggest not telling someone to show respect and then getting in a remark like that, and ffs stop being so arrogant it really doesnt do american people any favours.
