You know why Europe is generally pacifist? Because we've had two world wars here. The US has not had nightly bombing raids plaguing its cities for years on end. Its not had tanks rolling through its streets. Its not had 40 million dead on its continent from war in the space of 6 years. Thats why were not eager to inflict the same pain on others again, and thats why we get pissed at the US gov. when it attacks countries for jumped up reasons, because your making the same mistakes we did

Extremely good point.
