    Default Is USA A Country That Prevents Injustices Other Than Those Committed By Itself?

    In my opinion USA does relatively keep peace in the world in the sense that it is a bully who keep others from bullying each other if you know what I mean. I believe USA is the reason why World War III hasnt happened yet. Lets face it, just like in any community, international community also needs a leader or a ruler if you wanna put it that way.

    So do you agree or not?

    Congratulations for creating such a retarded and biased poll. (And do it on Christmas day. )

    I refuse to vote.

    btw you voted "No, death to America".

    I agree that the world would be worse off without US domination.

    Imagine if some useless nation like Britain or France had produced the first nukes?

    I don't care. We should immediately stop the practice of taking care of everyone else.
    The powers delegated by the proposed Constitution to the federal government are few and defined. Those which are to remain in the State governments are numerous and indefinite. The former will be exercised principally on external objects, as war, peace, negotiation, and foreign commerce; with which last the power of taxation will, for the most part, be connected. The powers reserved to the several States will extend to all the objects which, in the ordinary course of affairs, concern the lives, liberties, and properties of the people, and the internal order, improvement, and prosperity of the State. - James Madison

    I dunno if you are being sarcastic or not but at the moment US domination is still what is best for the world.

    You think so? Then why is "Islam will dominate the world, islam yeah!" in your sig?

    First you lied in the OP, because you voted "No, death to America."
    Then you lie in your second post, as it contradicts the message in your sig, that you always post.

    You fail man.

    Not having sense of humor much, eh? Who is the failure now?

    As an American, I am against the US' continued policies of meddling in everyone's affairs, even if it has good intentions. I think the US should step down for a while and see what happens. Who knows, maybe some countries will be better off, maybe others will eat each other. Not much different than it is now.
    Im not exactly talking about USA always intervening militarily in others affairs. But Im talking more about the fact that this big bully exist in the classroom for example keep others think twice before offending others if you know what I mean.

    Like I said for the moment I prefer USA to be the superpower. Im totally not ready to have Russia, China or India to 'rule' the world as long as those countries are still in their present state.

    PS:Whoever mod who modified my poll is an epic failure who has no sense of humor as well.

    No it is not. If you've read The Secret History of the American Empire by John Perkins you learn that American domination is nothing good for Asia or other parts of the world.

    But as an American, I will agree with you. My life is very much better when the US rules the world economically and politically. US power is set to wane however not because the US is becoming considerably weaker but because other countries like Russia, China, and India are becoming strong enough to have a say and tell the US when not to invade someone or tell the US when its interests should be put ahead of American interests.

    @Boyar Son. Actually Cuba offered us aid and i think we refused it. Cubans are not evil bastards but a country that does not bow to our economic interests is no country we want to deal with. THIS IS POLITICS AND BY GOD WE WILL YOU ALL UP FIRST AND CALL IT DEMOCRACY. AMERICA YEAH!

    Doesn't anyone know that US is main exporter of Freedom and Liberty all over the World? And all muslims are actually sentinels of Satan, except for those that are against Satan itself - communist countries?
    And whenever someone doubts the Great purpose of US of A, a little cute bald eagle baby dies?

    Look, seeing in the past what a communist country does to its own people, its no wonder why the US (and any western democracy) demands all of them dead & buried (mostly the USA). Volh, I'd hate to see you actually live in Cuba. But I'm too late, Fidel has already gotten to you.

    You base that on American media. Thats like if I was judging about USA by North Korean media. People who actually lived in Soviet Union would be very surprised about "facts" that american media provides about ther lives.

    And I have actually been to Cuba. Unfortunately I didn't see Fidel shooting babies, probably I was there in wrong season..

    Actually Cuba doesn't really have a bad reputation in the US, from what I've seen.

    For Americans, the only bad thing about Cuba is that it is Communist ...

    Many of them probably dont really know who Fidel Castro is or what Communism really is. All they know is that Communist = Bad!

    Cant really blame em though. In Indonesia its the same. Due to our bloody Communist history, thanks also to decades of subsequent anti-Communist propaganda these days Indonesians also think negatively about Communism despite their ignorance of what Communism really is.

    I hope you don't expect Cubans to love Americans after what they were doing to their country? And I wonder if Osama offered aid to US after Katrina, would Bush accept it?

    So do you agree or not?
    Well, I think you raise some valid points. Like Britain in the nineteenth and early twentieth centuries, America is clearly the most well-established country in the world, and, also like Britain used to be (and really still is), America is well served by a paucity of large-scale wars at this time.

    But I don't think that pragmatic strategic interests are the only reason that America acts the war it does. Before Barack Obama, every American president in the history of the country was old enough to remember or fought in a major war, so I think there has been a genuine desire to avoid bloodshed over the years. Obviously that wasn't always the case, as with the enthusiasm for the Spanish American war, but especially follow the Second World War and Vietnam, I think that has been a significant aspect of American foreign policy.

    Bush's presidency is a separate case, I think, because it was the first case of a neoconservative president in a unipolar world. Neoconservatism holds that America should "free the oppressed," so it's natural that Bush went into Iraq in a war of choice. Let's not forget, though, that one of the main justifications for the Iraq war - and, indeed, neoconservatism itself - was the so-called "democratic peace theory," ie that a free and economically prosperous Iraq was less likely to start future wars and would have a stabilizing effect on the region.

    So in short, yes, I think America does tend to have a net peaceful effect on the world.
