What has happened to our image as a beacon of freedom, opportunity and the right way to live?
Much of the world fears or hates us. We have a proclaimed policy of attacking any country whose policies or regimes don't follow our dictates.
Why have we become the biggest bully in the world?

What about China?What about 'em?
You are running at a deficit on this thread. I've noticed myriad responses to you that were cogently asserted, yet you ignore to respond to those posts then you proceed with your next "talking point."
Look throughout the thread. Many questions have been asked of you, and answering those questions with yet another question isn't going to cut it. I'm asking that you answer these questions put before you on this thread.

The boat thing is great, but it could be too subtle for the actual culprit.

I'd bet your one good eye that you went to public school and learned your great knowledge of American history from those wonderful fair and balanced teachers!!

Why not have them love us because they do not fear us?I don't care if they love us or not! What's "love" got to do with anything?
We should be an example that the world wishes to emulate.
The world already emulates us.
You speak and think in the positive. I speak and think in the normative. In other words, ideology doesn't rule me as it appears to rule you.
So, again, Oderint dum metuant.

No answers for my questions? Didn't think so. The whole point of this posting was not serious discussion but to aggravate and annoy as many people as possible. Make an outrageous statement and watch everyone react. Truly juvenile.

Why not have them love us because they do not fear us? Oh please, if you have a perfect US position regarding the Palestinians, or India-Pakistan, or China-Taiwan, or any of a hundred other conflicts, not to mention a hundred trade disputes we have directly with other nations, please toss it on the table. Fact is, we are the proverbial bull in the china shop, and our every action and non-action are under a microscope. You can't please everyone, and it's going to be damn rare you can please even a slim majority when everyone thinks we can wave a wand and make their troubles go away. If we don't, we're the bad guys for hoarding our wealth and power. If we do, we're imperialists destroying foreign cultures.
Why not have them love us? Hell, why not have them all over for a pajama party, we'll make s'mores and tell campfire stories.

I think our attack on Yugoslavia, in support of Muslim terrorists, is one of the most disgraceful acts in our history. Clinton, Albright and Clarke(sp) should be on trial for their crimes against humanity.

A thought for you.
It depends on whose ox has been gored. What were your thoughts on Slobodan?
He,who is standing before a kangaroo court?

Much of the world fears or hates us. When you're the King of the Hill, everyone wants to see you fall. It's called envy. ..Human nature.

I am merely trying to give the sheep another direction to consider.
