You are talking specifically. You must be a man.
I am talking about "in the eyes of the world."
How are we ever going to stay on good terms with countries who do not necessarily share our view points, if all they see is us invading these Arab countries? Or, those countries who do not share our view points?
And, why must you ASSUME that I need to be on a liberal discussion forum just because I worry that the U.S. is being drug into another war by outside forces? If you can't see it, then open your eyes.
Maybe you need to stop ASSUMING that people on FR who have different opinions than YOU are liberals!
Who, like France? Spain? Germany? Every one of them losing their own population, culture and identity to Eurabia encroachment. France and Germany are so dirty in the Oil for Food scandal, it'd rock the planet, to the extent we'll never know the true details of all that corruption. The allies of the US that help us militarily like Australia and Britain are fully on our side. Whether it be Iraq, Iran or tsunami assistance, it's the MILITARY that will effectively respond, NOT the UN!!
Here's a clue for you. Arab countries like Egypt, UAE, Qatar, as well as others are SCARED TO DEATH that Iran will get nukes. They'd privately be falling over silly with relief at having us take care of the situation, although their words would be publically critical or else silence. Nonetheless, Iran poses MUCH more of a threat to it's neighbors armed with nukes? Think we ought to ignore that? Think we ought to let Iran threaten their neighbors?
So you ever really LISTEN to what the President has to say??
If you want to worry about how Arab's view us, worry about the ports debacle. That's truely worth being concerned about and is going to bite us in the rear for a long time.
I assume you might need to be on a liberal discussion board because frankly, you sound like a liberal. Cowering approval from the UN and countries who hate America and will always hate America regardless of what we do or don't do, is generally a liberal trait.
Quite simply, we'll handle this situation, with allied assistance, because we are the only country who can.
Oh, and BTW, wrong gender guess too.
