This puts things into perspective for countries that are insignificant on the world scale, yet offer a not so insignificant amount of hating and criticism.

Also, denim jeans.

Discuss.

Thats video is very one sided.  Would be hard without america but there is always another video to opose that.  Way to only show one side.

The Democrats haven't taken the concept of equal time so far that it's required that fancy explain the other side too.


Sheesh, this is an opinion forum , not a news service.

This video is flawed. The alternate geopolitical sphere and the Atlantic/Pacific united by such an enormous gap would've called for differing conditions, and advances made by us in that universe would've been made by someone else. Who knows? Arabs might've been burning Canadian flags today. I might've grown up in the north saying 'eh, or back drinking in Ireland, completely oblivious to the internet.

No, the video clearly depicted a body of water in our place. Also, you can speculate all you want, but you can't deny the facts.

I loved letting small fines like that sit for a year or two, then looking at their faces when you pay 'em back.

The big question is. What will the world be like without America anymore.

A world without America would be a world without Israel?...  and this is a problem?...

Seriously though...  at that point in the video, I had to ask why that would be such a bad thing.  The world would've been better off after WW2 if America had just taken in all of the Jews.  That way, they could live peacefully here without anyone trying to kill them.

Hell, the world would be better off if Europe had just learned how to coexist with the Jews before WW2.



Well the video started out well enough, but the last two points were rather debatable.  The world would be poorer without us?  Well, multinational corporations are a lot of the reason for why certain areas are kept impoverished, so that's not really a specifically American problem or something we help much with.

The world would be held hostage by tyrants without us?  Plenty of the world is under the rule of tyrants, some of whom we supported or continue to support.

Facts like the worlds richest nations, led by America, are the reason for most of the worlds' poverty?

What are the facts bollox?

The world is like a bucket of water with a fist in it. As soon as you remove the fist something else takes it place. If you had not invented those things someone else would have.

Says the guy from the country that people hated in the past for the same reasons as people hate America now. As for the "idiotic world power" part, I find it quite amusing that you managed to spell "near" wrong. But of course, the past doesn't matter anymore does it?[/sarcasm]

Rejoice!

I, for one, think the world with or without america is undeniably screwed.
America's foreign policy could either help things, or hurt things, but not save things.
Right now, we are doing the best job we can to ensure our destruction.

Edit:
and goddam bubbalo, you are so right.
