Arrogant maybe, but at the same time a country that has gained so much power so quickly and at the same time used it so wisely. You show me a world power that has done as much good as the US has.
Sorry if you don't like my stubborn stance but I refuse to give in to threats. You seem to be another one of these people who somehow feel that America had this comming because of our involvement in world affairs. Unfortunately to become and remain a world power requires such involvement. Keep in mind that until the collapse of the soviet union a balance of power had to be maintained around the world, and required us to do things that we might today regret. Also let us not be naive, nations must sometimes act in their best interest at the expense of others, at least until we live in a utopian world.
Not to mention the past can not be changed, so we have to go on from here, should we now go back on the deals that we have made with our allies for fear of terrorism. You have the right to your own opinion, but I for one have far too much pride!
BTW - Yes many are animals, you don't see people dragged and beaten once they are dead in civilized nations, we don't strap bomb belts to little kids, and savagely beat and torture people. My family was in Germany when it was occupied by America, the germans were an occupied people, you did not see suicide bombers and the like. This is because they were not a backward people.
