Maybe the term "belief" is innapropriate. That sort of gives it a religious/spiritual aire.....
I just feel like too much military energy is being spent (I didn't say wasted) on other countries' political problems. Sorry, didn't mean to post the "P" word.
Really...... if they were a strong country, Why are our people over there dying for them?
If America weren't such a strong country, I suppose we would have to call for help from another country to assist US in having ........., er, well.... an election or something.
I didn't see any of them tending to our ( the USA)'s affairs.
Strong: USA
Weak: The others

Hmmm, did the Iraqis ASK us to come over and "help" them? I don't remember that.
