(Comment) The end of the world as we know it?

Published by at

SwitchBlade is unimpressed. America is declaring war on half of the world, with few people standing in the way. Yet they seem keen to start a world war at the same time....


I found this interview with an american government member courtesy of TheRegister. The interview is his opinion on what the fact that the French, Germans, and Belgians oppose a war, show that America have no clue.

In the interview he rates how important these countries are by how strong their militaries are. To quote him with something that must qualify as a mild diplomatic incident with France: "I assume the French would be capable of going with us into Iraq to instruct the Iraqis in how to surrender." Mostly he slags off the French, if I was French I'd be baying for a war on American wankers and screw Iraq.

To be honest I'm shocked and saddened at this interview. France is described as "not a world power any more", Belgium is described as "never has been" (a world power), and Germany "started a few wars in the 20th century". It's about time that Britain looked at the tripe coming out of America at the mo and backed up it's more important friends in the EU rather than people serving their own countries ego as the "worlds dominant power". Hell on track record, both Germany and France have got more points on the successful war scale than America has.

What is it with the American government and the schoolboy arrogancy that "my army is bigger than yours" as if it makes them better somehow? Here's a message for you, we don't give a flying f*ck about your army, who you wanna start a war with, or why you think you are the best thing since sliced bread. You are acting like ABSOLUTE WANKERS! The schoolboy bully who because he is bigger than the others, picks on them. What the hell happened to peace? Eh? That little thing with people being friendly and encouraging each other to do what is right without giving them a black eye if they make a mistake.

Lets go through the old military leaders of the world, Napoleon wanted to take over to rule the world, Hitler wanted ethnic cleansing for his airien race, the English under various leaders were expanding the Empire as were the Romans. These were all many many years ago now, we've grown up in the last century, but it seems the Americans as a younger country have decided to do some of the same, and are trying to disguise it as "fighting world terrorism". At least when countries used to try and take over the world we were honest. So far the UN have not discovered anything that catagorically states that Iraq is doing anything wrong and that military intervention isn't needed. THAT MEANS NO BLOODY WAR!

As a final note to the American government, get your head's out of your arses and get over your own self-importance. Oh and GROW THE HELL UP!

Please note this rambling is something to get off my chest over recent debate on war in the middle east. This in no way is related to this Symbian OSs, or reflects the opinions of the administration here. Just me, SwitchBlade.
