WHY Does america choose the wrong side all the time???

I am perplexed that We in america have not seen from the recent events that we are on the wrong side. For one we did not back the serbs when they were fighting the same kind of fanaticism we face now. And thousands of the serbs were being killed. Let us remember the balkans was one of the last places where the crusades were still taking place.But the Mus-Slums were not totally innocent as we all see now clearly. Yes I think Slobo was bad but i do think also he was protecting his country from the onslaught of Islamic fanatics. Second we are not backing the russians in there fight against YES YOU GUEST IT Islamic extremest in the break away republic of Chechnya. Another blunder on our part. If say new mexico tried to break away from the us would the Feds just up and say ok you may go. Definetly not. We would do everythng in out power to secure the break away state back to the us.. And think if in that state there were fanatical say NEW MEXICANS willing to kill and die with no thought how we would react. { WELL IF CLINTOON WAS PRES WE WOULD PROBABLY GIVE FINANCIAL AID} End of sarcasm. And finally the most disturbing of all to me is our turning of our cheeks to the people of India who if you remember did help the USA and the allies defeat the true axis in the fourties. Now We see that we are all Indians and jews and Filipinos fighting this evil Scourge called islam. It is time to reexamine our commitments to countries that harbor these midevil devils. Starting with PAKISTAN AND SAUDI ARABIA. NEVER FORGET THIS IT IS THEM OR US!! GOD BLESS THE USA AND THE MEN AND WOMAN FIGHTING FOR US.

JUST MY THOUGHTS AGREE OR DISAGREE WE need to look who our real friends are.

Incoherent vanity frothing at the mouth idiocy as breakings news?

I think the President said something about "turning our enemies one against the other," not "engaging all of our enemies in a frontal assault that would unite them in a common front."

I think his plan is working better than would the alternative, so far.

[Clemenza]

Well, we supported the worng side in the balkans, and should have let Kaiser Wilhelm fight the Limeys and Frogs to a stalemate in WWI (the war to make the world safe for Hitler and Lenin). Other than that, I think we have a decent tack record, particularly when compared to other nations.

[Cyber Liberty]

Why? Because we keep electing the wrong people to represent us. We've only had a decent president for just over a year and a month....

No need to be nasty i just posted my feeling..And am i wrong in anything i said>? HUH>? TALL AND DORKY

[Slip18]

Paragraphs are our friend.

[daapfe]

Also Mr happy. The Serbs save hundreds of american fliers during ww2. THink of what my point is in the post. THINK If you can.

YES YOU GUEST IT

To be effective, editorial comment generally should include correct spelling, punctuation and grammar.

Oh i know i am not the best at english but hey not every one has a college degree.. Thanks for the criticism I will go jump off the bay bridge.

[tallhappy]

No need to be nasty

Yes there is.

And your premise is ludicrous. I guess you think fighting Hitler and the Japanese, the N. Koreans and N. Vietnamese was the wrong side.

It is difficult to tell you just the depths of shortcoming in everything about this post.

[Whilom]

Yes I think Slobo was bad but i do think also he was protecting his country from the onslaught of Islamic fanatics.

Uh-huh, and Hilter built the autobahns and Mussolini made the trains run on time.

[daapfe]

READ WHAT I SAID We have turned our backs on countries that helped us fight those people you mention the japs and germans.. And dont question my patriotism.

I wasn't disagreeing with your positions, necessarily, and certainly did not intend to offend you, but use of proper English makes it more likely you will persuade your reader to your point of view. It's somewhat analogous to dressing nicely for a job interview.

[BlueLancer]

" The Serbs save hundreds of american fliers during ww2."

And were communists as well ... so what?

[Iwentsouth]

I do not understand the help the Russians part. How or why should we help them? Would they let American troops go there? Do we need to give them more money? Should we give them money? Do they not sell weapons to our enemys?

[daapfe]

I am not suggesting helping the russians. What i am saying is thed common enemy now.. We need to open our eyes... That is all. Maybe by supporting the russians instead of ragging on them. That would be support enough.

And finally the most disturbing of all to me is our turning of our cheeks to the people of India who if you remember did help the USA and the allies defeat the true axis in the fourties.

You might want to take a look at some of what Gandhi was saying at that time.

Just trying to figure out what you're getting at? Are you saying we should declare war on the entire Islamic world?

No flame intended

"WHY Does america choose the wrong side all the time???"

First off its not Americans who choose, its the cooperate government know as the UNITED STATES.

Second remember the old saying;
