I want you to go to an iraqi and tell them that american intervention benefitted them and their nation. Say that to a cambodian, vietnamese, nicaraguan, chilean, cuban, north korean, venezuelan, haitian, balkan, etc. the list goes on. You haven't had a truly experienced the third world if you havent sat around a fire with sunflower seeds and grumbled about america. When i say that america is worse than israel i am referring to the purposeful bombings of civilians, hospitals, industrial infrastructure, and schools; I am referring to the overthrowing of democratically elected governments, the funding of fascist death squads, and the illegal and immoral sanctions meant to destabilize foreign powers all in the name of profit. Humanitarian aid is meaningless if you are the reason its necessary
You complain about America yet America contains China and their genocidal Muslim death squads. You bemoan American intervention yet that intervention keeps energy prices stable saving millions of lives getting food dependant on that. You curse America even though it keeps murdering dictators at bay. America has used its power and navy to keep the seas open and trade flowing. You talk about the third world while you sit around a coal fire under provided by the trade America' protects. Is America perfect? Absolutely not. But it can be much, much worse. If not America, then who? Look how China has been behaving in Africa. Russia seems very reasonable and understanding. America helped end colonialism. Also, thank goodness for America eradicating disease around the world. America led the way eradicating aids, guinea worm, polio, small pox, measles, and TB.
If you're going to lob criticism, you need to acknowledge the whole. Global population says American efforts have been a resounding success. A simple thank you would be nice.
You're either a troll or your brain is so rotten that you may as well cut off your head, as it's doing nothing
Thanks for the ad hominem attack. I'm sorry the facts are against your opinion.
And I am sorry your family had to deal with your existence
That's all you got? You didn't bring any counter argument. You just lobbed a half hearted insult. America has made the world a better place and that's a fact. Now if you could pull your head out of your ass for one minute, you could see that. But as of this moment, it is far up there that if you blinked, you'd tickle the back of your throat and cough out the cum you have been gargling all day at the gloryhole you have been working.
I don't need a counter argument when talking to an american - your brain is less developed than that of a literal slug :)
If that's true, why do we wield the most power in the world? Surely everyone else is smarter and can overpower us. Oh wait...
