Hello Tim,

 DD>> Would that explain US "interventions" around the world?

 TR> I have never been a supporter of the United States getting involved in so
 TR> many areas of the world. To my way of thinking, we should just be to
 TR> ourselves, have a VERY strong military, and let the rest of the world
 TR> go piss it's pants.

With a very strong military, and nobody or no country to invade, who
is going to pay the soldiers of that very strong military?  Who is
going to pay for all the tanks, and planes, and boats, and guns, and
equipment, those soldiers need in order to do their jobs?  And what
exactly would be their job?  If there is nobody or country to invade,
what would be their purpose?

Well, in one sense it would be a good thing.  Your solution would
end welfare as we know it.  No more getting a free lunch.  In exchange
for food, shelter, healthcare, etc., bums would actually have to do
something.  Not exactly sure what that something would be, but it
would be something.

 TR> The way I see as right...there would have maybe been one or two
 TR> world incidents where an American was murdered by a foreigner, in a
foreign
 TR> country. But no more.

We would have the strongest military in the world.  And this
military would be used to keep Americans home where they belong.
So you would be right in that regard.

 TR> The opportunity to teach the world to leave Americans alone came and went
 TR> many decades ago. The very first incident should have brought a
retaliation
 TR> that lasted in the memory of the whole world for decades.

The world is beyond redemption.  That is why we should focus on
redeeming ourselves.  Assuming that is possible.

 TR> The United States has expended its treasure in many parts of the world
over
 TR> my lifetime, that could have been far better spent right here at home.

We have been spending more than we have been taking in for years.
As a result, the American economy is no longer the largest economy
in the world.  That honor now belongs to China.  And China is fast
buying up America.  I do hope and pray you are adept at learning
Mandarin.

 TR> For all the billions we've poured into Israel alone since back in the
 TR> 1940's,
 TR> all we've got to show for it is a little nation half the size of Delaware
 TR> that cheats us, steals from us, practices espionage against us, may have
 TR> been responsible for a deadly attack on one of our naval vessels,
constantly
 TR> beats us over the head with that `holocaust' club of theirs, and has no
more
 TR> regard for us than they do the Arabs they've been fighting with for around
5
 TR> thousand years!

The hope for a future that Israel has is a two state solution.
But Israelis have chosen to put all their eggs into one basket.
Israelis want the entire area for themselves, and for that area
to be and remain a Jewish state.

You see, Muslims breed like rabbits.  Jews breed at a much slower
rate, to the point of negative return.  The lohger Israel waits
to make peace with their Arab brethren, the worse kind of deal it
is likely to get.  And if Israel waits too long to make a deal,
the children of Yasser Arafat (all of them fighters for Arafat)
will simply take over the entirety of Palestine, thus wiping
Israel into the sea.

 TR> And, during that time (since the 1940's) they've managed to arouse a
deadly
 TR> enemy against us, gotten almost 4 thousand of us killed in one single
attack
 TR> alone....and show no sign of ever letting up on us.

Yes, I know.  Menachim Begin was a terrorist.  Blew up Brits,
the same as his Arab brethren.  Arabs and Jews alike turned to
terrorism in an effort to bring self-government to Palestine.
But the two groups never wanted to work together in that regard,
as each side wanted all of Palestine for themselves.

 TR> We've paid out in treasure, military technology, and lives, more
 TR> `reparations' than Germany ever paid!

All our former enemies are now our very best friends.
Germany, Italy, Japan, Korea (southern half), Cuba, Mexico ...

March 19, 2003 is the day the US attacked Iraq.  All peace
loving peoples, including those in the USA, should advocate
for reparations to the people of Iraq.  Why?  Because this
was a war that was based on false pretenses.  An American
president lied to the American people, and to the entire
world, telling them that military action was necessary in
order to keep Saddam Hussein from detonating a nuclear
bomb (among other lies).

When Clinton lied, nobody died.
When Bush lied, thousands died.

While I am not proud of what Bill Clinton did, his personal
life is his own and none of anybody else's business.  His
actions did not endanger me, or anybody else.  No matter how
despicable or immoral his acts may have been, that is nothing
in comparison to what George W. Bush did.

 TR> And thats just Israel!

Israel owns us (through AIPAC).

 TR> The politicians we get who make us poke our nose into other country's
 TR> affairs
 TR> are deaf once they get elected and go to DC. They must be blind, too,
 TR> because
 TR> they've managed to make the United States the laughing stock of the world!

And who is to blame for that?  We are the ones who elected them
into office.  And keep re-electing them time and again.
