The US is not the world's police

[Amputate Your Head]

July 21 ? Angry Liberians thronged the U.S. Embassy and demanded to know when U.S. troops would arrive to help them. Michael Davie of "National Geographic Explorer" reports for NBC News.

I think we have a duty to ignore such conflicts like this from now on. Too many people will cry if we go to Liberia. Let them fucking bleed.

And you too. Don't like the US? Fine. Fuck off. Tend to your own goddamned problems and we won't have to.

[Brown Bear]

Sometimes people need a good fight. I say let them fight it out.

[rooster]

people trash the usa, but when they need help come begging, and then after we help they go back to hating us.

[Gutterboy]

Yet another attempt at letting negroes govern themselves goes down in flames. When will we learn?

Next: South Africa

[Herb Kornfield]

The US should only worry about our own house for now.

Let all these punk ass nations that cant figure out their problems just fall apart, life is survival of the fittest, not a nicest person contest.

This is how the herd is thinned, its natural selection at work.

The US needs to just let shit slide all over the world so those that hate us for no reason can then realize when there is no rice pallets dropping from the sky, maybe we arent that bad after all.

As our troops sit here and chill out and save some $$$ for future stuff instead of spending it all out now.

Jeez, a little race comment there huh. Anyway if they want help thats fine , as long as we get some of there land for a few army bases.

Liberian rebels said Tuesday they had ordered their forces to halt a blistering onslaught on the capital, Monrovia, and a top government soldier said the insurgents were being driven back. The statement came amid several days of fierce fighting that has claimed hundreds of civilian lives, prompting urgent calls for U.S.-led international peacekeeping forces to quell the chaos. Despite a situation described as ?horrific? by the U.N. refugee agency, the United States has not agreed to intervene, saying the initiative should be headed by West African nations.

Isn't that what the UN is for? The US is about war, not peace. Don't call us. Call the Almighty UN.

[godkill]

My only concern is that there will be a rash of small skirmishes of this type breaking out where ever Al quida is. Our forces will get spread thin and then BLAMMO! More domestic problems than we can humanly manage...

I love how this phrase "how the herd is thinned" is becomming so popular on gfy.

Africa is an example of "survival of the fittest"?
How about an example of "survival of the best armed!"?

I have to admit that I'm torn about whether or not we should send troops. If it would be like for a few weeks to protect and evacuate citizens and then replaced by the U.N., I think I would agree with that type of plan. But it has to have a clear exit plan in place.

And finally, the U.S. & the rest of the world has certainly turned a blind eye for the most part to Africa, that is suffering in many different ways from war to famine to disease.

Maybe we can fix some of the problems within our own country? Does this make sense?

agreed...

everyone hates the US until they are in need of help and rescue... then it changes to .. why didnt the US do something before it got out of hand.. can't win either way....

as an American.. I like the fact that we can travel to most any country in the world.. but this has been made possible by many years of hard work and nations working together... turning our back and taking care of our own house would be great for our current pocketbook... but it would not be a wise move for the future of world peace.

I say send the Canadians and French.

4 words: Post apartheid South Africa

Don't hear a whole lot in the media about SA's crime rates and economy anymore.. gee, I wonder why? Maybe because Apartheid ain't looking too bad right about now.

No one asked the U.S. to go into Iraq. In fact, the world told the U.S. not to because it would turn into a big mess, which it has. Rush may have told you they wanted our "help", but Rush has a little problem with the truth.

I agree send the french, regardless what america does we always have someone crying and protesting, yet when we liberate someone else's ass, and we need their help(ex FRANCE NOT suppoting us in the Iraq conflict) they turn their back on us,
I think if we stop helping other countrie they will be hurting. Travel much of the world, where ever I have been seen many people worshiping AMERICAN PRODUCTS, levis, foods, and even the way the good old american girl looks?!!! Yet they still bad mouth us.
REGARDLESS this is the BEST nation in the world!

Too late for that... can't just leave it in ruins. Someone would cry about that too. We'll unfortunately have to clean up Iraq. (and someone will also cry about that)

but that's it.... from there on, I say we take care of number one and fuck everyone else. Fucking whiner countries want the US out of everything, well cool... let them slaughter and butcher each other. Let Liberia go down in anarchy. Don't ask for help... don't ask for shit. Not a mutherfucking thing. We're fully capable of taking care of ourselves. I say it's time we see how capable everyone else is.

Canada along with the British and Americans saved the French's ass, time to let the french do something for other countries, remember Hitler actually went to Paris and put the German flag on their eiffel Tower.....it's no longer there b.c of those 3 nations!!! I don't have anything agaisnt the French, just that a little Army liek Poland tried to fight off the Nazis, yet the French got their butts kicked by them, and their Army was bigger!!!

So few words and so many stupidities...

1) Canada said it would commit troops to Iraq underr a UN manadate. We have troops in Afghanistan. In fact, I think it is our turn at managing that shit.

2) French troops are heavily involved in peace keeping in Congo. Britts are in Sierra Leone. Both countries are neighboor to Liberia.

PS: why did Bush go to Africa?
ever seen the Liberia flag?? Any ressemblance.


When are you leaving Iraq then to conform to your new position...

Amp is right here. I don't think we should have done it in the first place, but now that we have, we can't just leave the poor schmucks hanging with little infrastructure and a power vacuum.

Human nature abhors a vacuum in much the same way nature does, except that human nature always seems to fill it in the worst possible way.

Is it still the rest of the world's problem if it's an American colony?

"1815- African-American Quaker and maritime entrepreneur Paul Cuffee (or Cuffe) financed and captained a successful voyage to Sierra Leone where he helped a small group of African-American immigrants establish themselves. Cuffee believed that African Americans could more easily "rise to be a people" in Africa than in America with its system of slavery and its legislated limits on black freedom. Cuffee also envisioned a black trade network organized by Westernized blacks who would return to Africa to develop its resources while educating its people in the skills they had gained during captivity. Cuffee died in 1817 without fully realizing his dream."

"1821-The American Colonization Society (ACS) dispatched a representative, Dr. Eli Ayres, to purchase land farther north up the coast from Sierra Leone. With the aid of a U.S. naval officer, Lieutenant Robert F. Stockton, Ayres cruised the coastal waters west of Grand Bassa seeking out appropriate lands for the colony. Stockton took charge of the negotiations with leaders of the Dey and Bassa peoples who lived in the area of Cape Mesurado. At first, the local leaders were reluctant to surrender their peoples' land to the strangers, but were forcefully persuaded -- some accounts say at gun-point -- to part with a "36 mile long and 3 mile wide" strip of coastal land for trade goods, supplies, weapons, and rum worth approximately $300. See "The fourth annual report of the American Society for Colonizing the Free People of Color of the United States: with an appendix.""

French president calls on troops to be prepared in case of war in Iraq

Brits to call-up reservists

PARIS (AP) - Alluding to a possible war with Iraq, French President Jacques Chirac on Tuesday called on French troops to be ready for deployment.

"To be prepared is at the heart of the soldier's job," Chirac said during annual New Year's wishes to the armed forces. "Particularly, we have to be attentive to the way in which United Nations Security Council resolution 1441 is applied by Iraq." Chirac said there was reason to believe that French forces will continue to be needed in certain "operational theatres," a reference to Ivory Coast, where more than 2,000 French troops are currently engaged.

However, he added that, "alas, other (theatres) could open up," a clear reference to Iraq.

It was the clearest suggestion so far that France would participate in a military operation in Iraq.

Paris has been opposed from the beginning to unilateral U.S. action in Iraq and has demanded that Washington get UN Security Council approval before sending in the troops.

Mostly I think they simply don't want to give Quebec the satisfaction. But virtually every Canadian I've ever met and/or talked to can't stand Quebec or it's people. Mostly they'd just like you to either shut the fuck up or get it over with, secede already, and be gone.

Been to Quebec plenty myself, and I can't say I blame them. Absurdly arrogant and unfriendly people.... and even more so toward other Canadians that aren't from Quebec.

I've been all over Canada, and Quebec is the only place I'm damn sure I won't ever be going back to. The rest of Canada was great.

Why not?

If the reasoning is that all these people (Including and especially the Iraqi's) are ungreatful bastards, why should we stay in a country where we're not liked, not wanted, and shot at?

Pretty damn hypocritical to say on one hand that we're NOT the world's policeman, but yet keep 140,000 troops in a country that offers no threat to our security.

You can't have it both ways. We don't give a fuck about them really do we? Isn't this survival of the "fittest" and nature's way of "thinning the herd"? Then get the troops out and let the mofos kill off each other instead of American soldiers.

I'm just backing up your "We're not the world's policeman" reasoning to the hilt!

oh don't get me wrong... I fully agree. We SHOULD pull out of there and let them destroy themselves. It'd probly only take a few weeks for them to completely annihilate each other anyway. But the ensuing crying from countries like France would be unbearable. If you listen carefully, you can almost hear the sniffling mounting...
