Why in the hell should we help and why shouldn't the many European countries help instead?

We are not closest by proximaty, nor are we the only country capable.  Since when are we the worlds savior?  We only get treated with disrespect by every third country ****hole.

Let France and Germany do it.  As France should have learned long ago, the Congo is beyond help, and there isn't squat that can be done in Liberia that will actually have any long term effect.

History has shown us, that without colonial rule, most if not all African countries will continue to be cesspools of violence and lawlessness.  They want to "run" their own countrys, let them.  Don't expect us to have our soldiers sacrifice their lives for ungrateful scum.

We went into Somalia to help, we tried to distribute relief food, and we would have helped them move forward and establish means to help themselves, but for our efforts, 18 brave young men died, and many more were injured.  I hope Somalia enjoys its just rewards.

The people in these African nations are so rooted in tribal cultures and hatreds, they can't be  helped.  Nuke the whole freaking continent and start fresh when it stops glowing.

And Curval, you are one f'ed up person who doesnt even understand himself and why you are so full of hate.  I hope some day you get the help you need, but I doubt it will happen, as you seem lacking in the ability of introspection.

Somalia left a bad taste in the mouths of the American public.  The US is also in the midst of an economic downturn.  Why should we give money to an African country in the middle of a civil war when we're having trouble with money ourselves?

No more "Blackhawk Down".

Steve/firbal...that can't be true.  According to Dago anyone who even suggests US involvement is full of hate and lacks introspection.:rolleyes:

Curval,

 Respectfully, why do you need a big brother government to coerce others do your fighing for you?

 If you want to help Liberia so much, why not do it privately? Draw a plan, create a foundation, get people involved, collect funds, assemble volunteers, buy arms, hire additional fighters, etc.

Miko...respectfully, they ain't asking for my help.  They are asking for US help.

Curval: Miko...respectfully, they ain't asking for my help.  They are asking for US help.

 By "US help", do you mean that some individual people living in USA must do some action that would help the liberians? If so, an average dude living in US does not differ much from you - probably has less disposable income, education, etc.
 So if you an american guy can donate money, organise or volunteer for cannon fodder, you may do so as well.

 Of course if you believe that US (or a State in general) is more than a collection of individuals but rather some kind of super-entity with distinct conciousless, thoughts and motivations operating besides and above those of individual constutuents - then you should talk directly to that entity rather than waste your time talking to mortal people here - like you would by talking to individual cells instead of a whole human being.

 P.S. I am currently reading a great book by George Orwell "Homage to Catalonia" about his participation in the Spanish Civil War. Did you know he joined as volunteer and took a bullet through the throat in that conflict?
 I've only started, so cannot comment much but I am sure it will be a great read.

I dunno about that hate and introspection stuff....
I am just answering your post.  I'll leave all the vitriol and ire to others.
