Creedon hi, I didn't see your post. I shouldn't have concluded the U.S government in this but I was in a way provoked to do so. I don't have anything against Americans. In fact I have many American friends here in Athens (we have a big american community) and I also have relatives in the States. I just don't like people preaching about what's politically correct and not, let alone swearing. That's all.

pantso, i was trying to be cool
edit: i deleted most of my post
the united states is not collapsing, but we do have big time corruption to deal with
and pantso, how would you have us go about fighting the "war on terrorism" and the anti-western attitude of much of the world? i am not going to get into the whiny "why do they hate us" song and dance...
i dont know... the UN and the EU would just bicker and debate this straight into the ground... we (in large part) feel that we just need to get over there and do something about this; we are supporting friendlier governments and trashing unfriendly/militant ones. we sponsor freedom, as long as you don't try to kill us!
a lot of countries would starve without US aid
the "whats in it for us" comment is right on, and it is not entirely wrong for us to ask this... we just do it too much
i don't think anyone would raise thier hands in support of terrorism... right (please)?
so... pantso, take it easy... my uneducated southern ass has had enough of this. why are you so opposed to the united states?
and i am no dumb redneck... but a lot of dumb rednecks died crushing the nazi regime... and dumb rednecks pay for food for a large portion of the third world

The one realization you have to make is that YOU might be one of those "acceptable casualties". I don't now, and never have seen the point of the United States sending young men to a strange land to die for an abstract concept. Who are we giong to put in Saddams place? Yes, he's violent, aggresive killer, but that could be said for any member of the ruling Baath party; what's the point of getting rid of Saddam, only to replace him with someone just like him?
