I can't pretend to have all the answers. I just know that America is very good at spreading propoganda and I know we don't get the same news as International news. So maybe we are being brainwashed and lied to?

We are definately the modern day version of Rome or Great Britain. Can anyone say either of those past superpowers were innocent and richous in every situation? Marching into 3rd world countries, stealing their resources, exploiting them, etc.

After 8 years of Bush, I'm beginning to question it when Condy or Chaney says another country is "evil". Can you blame me?
I suggest you learn some facts. Saddam Hussein Invaded Kuwait because he claimed it was the 19th Province of Iraq. It had nothing to do with Kuwait stealing anything.. Now lets think about this for a moment, if Kuwait oil wells were stealing Iraq Oil, what would happen to Iraq oil when he set those wells on fire?

And yes I can blame you for being a stupid person that does not know facts or reality.

Ohh and explain how we stole anything from Iraq. Go ahead provide some evidence we took any oil from them. I won't hold my breathe though waiting.
