Despite their lack of morality and democracy comprehension they claim very ambicious aims. Is there any good reason that america should judge other nations or intervene national or international conflicts?

I'm an American, and I hate my country.

Well, the best argument I have heard is that they are the strongest nation and have the biggest chance of success in military intervention. I still hate it though.

China is actually the strongest country in terms of military. With about a 3 million man standing army, they sure can put on some pressure. From what I hear, America - like most countries - is supposedly in the strings of the banks and the elite or whatever. I don't want to just spew conspiracies, but I don't see many other theories that explain it well.

I think the answer is not so complex. The two parties (I never understood why there are only two...weird) are funded by corporations. The most talked about example is beef companies but that's not relevant here. If the parties are funded by...let's say an arms manufacturer, this company will want something in return. Business. While this may not directly cause America to intervene, it certainly explains why America retains such military power, and why it never attempts to reduce it.

Genghis, man power does not mean strength. See USSR in WWII.

Global policemen does not mean they want to take over the world. But I wish my country would stay out of many of the matters they get involved in. Some are important, others not.

America does its best to make the world a better place. They kill terroriste and bring dictators to fall. Without the help of the USA, South-korea would just be part of north Korea for example.
But sometime they also support dictatorship to pervend Tribal Wars/Civil war.
Also, without America, Europe would be part of russia or the nazi's.

Thx America! The fallen American soldiers did not die for nothing, and we should always be grateful for their Great deeds!!

You know what the world needs?

RoboCop

Wait. We haven't taken over the world already??? Then where the **** are my taxes going?!?!

ok, didnt expect that many replies.^^

at Happy Bunny: pls dont get mad with me, but I always thought people who answer like you only excist in television. could you please explain how america made or make the world a better place? I hope you didnt mean, that killing anybody (especially those who arent obedient to american politics) makes the world a better place.
by the way your clan logo is a bit confusing in case of what you said about europe and the nazis.
and at least I wanted to mention that there are many nations fighting against terrorism and dictators. Just even remember the russians who defeated nazi germany in WWII. I guess their contribution for a better world is still much higher than americas, if you count the kills and losses...

That is true, Arun. However, a large army can still be very mean. America is supposedly downsizing the military, though I never heard much of that idea's resolution. Also, there are countless parties. Literally, there's Libertarian, Socialist, Communist, heck there's even a party and the candidate is Vermin Supreme and their goal is to give all Americans a pony and turn the pony poop into methane gas. Still, with a very terrible " democratic " election system, it might as well just be Republican and Democrats. Also, USA has made many bad decisions. A strong one to note was their arming Afghanis to fight the Soviets a while back. The Afghanis practically turned around and started shooting at us.

There has always been a world power ever since civilization developed. America is in that position now. Age Old Nationalism or National Interest never died out. Add to that the interests of the American Military Industrial Complex and you see a possible reason for their interventions.

The misgivings we have for American Foreign Policy is mainly due to one reason from the way I see it. America follows the paths the old European Imperialists once did. The difference being America hides behind gilt edged words while the Imperial European countries made no secret of their aims.

Down with FPTP!!!

could you please explain how america made or make the world a better place?

How can you not think America did make this world a better place? Oo
They stoped WWI And WWII! They stoped wars and bring ballance in this world.Just imagine how the world would look like if they would have never had participated in any conflict outside their borders.


by the way your clan logo is a bit confusing in case of what you said about europe and the nazis.

Unlike the US, i dont want the wold to be a better place. The world is overpopulated and it can not go on like this. Maybe a disease that will kill 70-95% of the population is a good solution.

Edit: spelling improvement

The best examples of the terrorist: "the Taliban"
and dictators brought to fall: "Saddam Hussein"

Both got the power with the support of America, only to be removed later again. You can say they make the world a better place by doing so, but they often (not only with these examples) they`ve put those there themselves.

I'm an American, and I hate my country.

Then leave. You won't be missed.

The irony in all of this of course is that the US gets criticized for intervening in situations but then also gets criticized for NOT intervening. The situation in Nigeria perfectly illustrates that with people complaining that the UN and US haven't done anything to save the kidnapped girls. Yet when the US does get involved they will be equally criticized for stepping on another nation's sovereignty.

Can you for once not be a jackass?

Without USA, there might be a lot more Nazi clans on warlight ;)

Omigod USA is f**king eveil the rest of the world shall have war with the US

US gets criticized for intervening in situations but then also gets criticized for NOT intervening.

most of the time, not to say always, they intervene for their own benefit ( oil profits, mine concessions, important geopolitically locations )

The situation in Nigeria perfectly illustrates that with people complaining that the UN and US haven't done anything to save the kidnapped girls

I thought they sent ground forces and surveillance drones to help rescue the girls. 80 US soldiers were sent into the adjacent Chad. That sounds ridiculous somehow. I cant believe that they are anything else then military observers.
But the situation in Nigeria and the rest of Africa is a bit more complicated. If someone would have a closer look, one might see there totally different and much more serious crimes, which are even worse.
anyway, those islamic radicals, who presumably also kidnapped the girls, killed this year about 1500 people during their assaults. They claim the north for an islamic state (Chad borders to the north east). in my opinion, the US simply uses the girls terrifying situation for an evaluation of the islamic influence in that region. Im not so sure that they ever intend to find the girls. otherwise they might already have found them.

During the Bush and Obama era they showed that they are capitalists in its pure sense and that they care about nothing except money. which leads me to the final question:

Is there any good reason that america should judge other nations or intervene national or international conflicts?
