Like lending money to a drunk, a gambler or a junkie. And Finnpundit, the Bureau of Indian Affairs exists because when the surviving Indians were herded into the worst possible lands in America, the white man never imagined there might be valuable mineral resources in them thar hills. (If they'd have known, they'd have killed them pesky Injuns and got it over with.) So the BIA acts as a trustee for the Indians and sells off their resources at a ridiculous price to well-connected companies. winter, you see a friend do a damn stupid thing, you don’t enable him.

Too bad that they are too busy giving money to Hamas to figure anything out. Basic rule, get them to change BEFORE giving them money. Funny how they have money for this things but don't have cash for other useful stuff. “When the EU finally figures that out, the shock will set them off to no end.”

That’s the new memo to a tee. When the EU finally figures that out, the shock will set them off to no end. It will be some time before they even wake up, so I am not expecting the light to shine soon in any EU country's head. I don't know if 9/11 was inspired by Euro's, but their attitude after 9/11 tells the USA they are not on our side. Thus the Europeans are the enemy as much as the Muslim Extremists are.

Since 9/11, I only care about making the world a better/safer place for the US. As so much of the thinking behind 9/11 was inspired by Europeans, it seems to me that there is little for the US to gain by worrying about the rest of the world's security. I’m totally against the ideology that the USA are making the world a better/safer place.

I think this applies specially to the war in Iraq. Sure Saddam was a tyrant but if you look at Irak's situation right now, I ain't sure if it's a better country now then it was under Saddam's regime. Now if you take the Vietnam war, they tried to be the world police and ended up getting their ass kicked and let the "bad guys" win. Communism, and I've noticed from an American friend of mine that most Americans are 100% against it, isn't a bad ideology it's just that whenever a regime tries to use it, it's for power and fortune. For the wrong reasons in the end. I'm glad the USA came and helped out Europe during WWII and they were much of a support but I still believe they only got involved because they had somethings to protect and to gain out of it. They only did get involved after being attacked by Japan and at that time, the Nazis had already conquered most of the strongest europeans countries. Anyway, thats just what I think about Americas "world policing" ideology. I’m totally against the ideology that the USA are making the world a better/safer place.
