BAM SAYS :-
I'm no real big fan of the Americans, but lets get one thing straight here as there seems to be a fair bit of America bashing going on here. Its a tad Ironic I feel to hear someone like Emerald Red blowing Bubbles about the Yanks when twenty 40 years ago or so I doubt he would of condemed the Americans for aiding the IRA with funds and weapons. To help his fellow countrymen sorry "ex"-countrymen , in their fight for independence against the British.
But feck it hey, lets forget about any of the deemed "good" the Yanks have done for some. And crucify them for the fact they back the Israeli's in this war in the Middle East. Are people that naive to firstly hold America accountable for the Israeli/Palestinian war thats older than the USA itself. Secondly and more importantly are people really that naive to see why the Americans "back" Israel ?
I'm happy in the know that the Americans have got a finger in the pie when it comes to that Godforsaken place (The middle East) apologies to MH. A massive and fundamental part that people obviously dont realise is. To ensure a tight grip on Global economics and Politics which I might add I'd rather the Yanks have than the French, Irish, Swiss, Afghnanies (imagine that!), Iraq (again imagine that), the Russians ?, the Chinese the Germans the list is endless who I'd rather not see as the one superpower call the shots, so to speak. And before anyone asks why should a superpower be just that and 'call the shots' WWII is the answer. We never want o see something like that happen again and I believe as long as the Yanks have their strategics in place i.e a finger in the pie in the Middle East another in South America, the South Pacific and anywhere else on earth where they deem its important to strategically locate themselves, I'm all for that.
Yes they go about things sometimes in the wrong way, yes they f.uck up, yes they shoot allied planes down out of the sky. But like your big brother you stand by him no matter what, Britain and Australia will ALWAYS stick by the Yanks. Because they know the World is a better place with America leading the way than the unknowns of China, N.Korea, France Afghanistan or any other country at the helm. Could you imagine what the world would be like if you gave Bin Ladern or any other extremist Muslim the Finance and Power the Amerians have. I tell you what, you'd be singing a totally different tune had the Russians, Afghanies or anyone else had the Global pull the Yanks did.
So I ask, try to remember what the World would be like if the Yanks didnt have much needed strategical allies in place. Some of you also may do well to remember the President Elect, Obama who had some admittedly in tears and professed on here to others .. "He'll change things for the good". One things for sure, he wont drop ties with the likes of Israel to satisfy the Commie view. He cant afford to and neither can we.
