it's a problem only as far as your own ideology goes.

and as far as the u.s. having a say about some others, not all - that's part of life, yes. it's the way parts of the world have progressed. it would be nice if we could pull all our men and women back inside our borders and let others fend for themselves, but then, of course, we'd hear incessant bitching and moaning about how horrible the u.s. is for not helping out across the world.

perhaps you should pay a little more attention to your own country and stop biting your nails about what others outside the u.s. are crying about. don't believe the hype - remember that little tid-bit of advice?

i'm glad you didn't leave, peter.
