Quote by: swordsman Thats actually funny, I dont think we forced anyone into war. The allies that did come, like your nation, have their own agenda and their own reasoning for fighting, and I promise its not freedom. They came willingly with their hands out.
I didnt no that russia and china were the type of allies to send troops. How could I have overlooked those two, that was ridiculous. As far as Somalia, dont blame this administration for another presidents tendency to turn tale and run from a conflict and launch missiles from 2000 miles off. And what would you have somalia send? Atomic slingshots?
And finally your right germany isnt backing us, however their bases are more active now with american personnel than theyve been since the cold war. Germany may not have sent 50000 troops but they did the next best thing. And Germany would have been there if they got permission from France.
What kind of empire does what, thats a good question, go ask Tony Blair, our most loyal ally. |
You didn't force anyone to join your war, which demonstrates precisely how poor an empire you run.
No, Russia and China arn't the types to send troops unless aboslutely neccesary. They don't share your imperial ambitions, nor do they wish to advance your national interest at the expense of the international order.
When did I blame this administration for what happened in Somalia? I was criticising the US state, which has largely pursued the same goals for the last sixty years.
Germany is more powerful than France, they don't need anyone's permission. However, the German government does care about what there public think, and they thought this was an example of American expansionism. And if your state shares your sentiments, the suspicions of the German, and European, public were right. Moreover, Germany cares about international law and order. They possess the foresight to understand how dangerous a precedent is being set by pre-emptive action.
