TheSquealer...it's not supposed to be our place to "leave them alone" anyway. That was my point.

We would declare war if another country tried to tell US what to do and tell US that we only had so much time to destroy our nuclear stockpiles or they would bomb them with the UN.

That's what I'm talking about. How did we suddenly become the country that orders everybody in the world around? Doesn't that make us the "bad guys"?

I know everyone will say "no" that we are the "good guys". But the German people believed THEY were the "good guys". And the Japanese thought THEY were the "good guys".

Reality is...the winners of the war are the "good guys" in the history books short term (say a few hundred years). And I'm not sure how the U.S. global military occupations are going to be seen in history books 500 years from now.
