Do we care about world opinion?

no you dont care and why should you...you have enough military power to take the rest of the world hands down...and you dont care who knows it...invading someone because they do not share the same veiws as you IS not a good opinion...hitler was liberating poland...lets just hope iraq is the last place you decide to invade...at least you have a half decent reason for that...

and it seems you dont like people who DO care about world opinion...

one of these days your gonna get your bellybutton horribly kicked by that little wimp who just took boxing lessons and when he does youll learn your rightfull place...mind your own business and well mind ours

thats just my uneducated non corect opinion that will have you flaming me for ages...but guess what




I DONT GIVE A toejam ABOUT "WORLD" OPINION EITHER AND THATS THE LAST IM SAYING ON THIS SO FLAME AWAY LIKE A CHILD[/COLOR]

I'm curious, I keep hearing "the majority of the world is against the US's action in Iraq"...

Now seriously, if you are going to throw out that accusation, do you have some numbers?

Unless we are talking 2.5 billion or more, then we aren't even at half of the world population.

Sorry SLO you are correct we helped, I stand corrected.

My point is still we are not conquerors, never have been.

It seems from so many on thes board that we are and I only ask show me where in our history (American Indians excluded) have we Invaded and taken over the land of another for our own pleasure.

no 1 said you didn't play a central roll.....what I said is a FACT in our canadian military history.....alot of Canadians died liberating France.

50 years of cold war you say....I think Canada did its part....as much as we could....

look its not a pissing contest.....but from what i keep reading on these boards is that ONLY americans liberated France.....

SLO,  you and I must be reading different boards. I dont see anyone denigrating Canada or its input in WW2, the cold war or the recent battles in Iraq,Afghanistan etc.  
39,0000 Canadian Soldiers gave their all 60 years ago and crap on anyone who disrepects that.  But please never think that what sets you off here is any true indicator of what the "other" North Americans really think.

problem is the WE....

the WE was India...Australians....Brits(limeys)....Americans....Canadians... ..French Resistence....etc etc


the WE used in here is us americans....it gives em permission to BASH France cause WE(US) liberated them...cause they disagree with OUR opinion about Irak....

Canada doesn't agree with your opinion or Facts about
Irak.....yet NONE i repeat NONE have said 1 word about that.....

Guess what Ram....it's legal in the eyes of America and that's all that matters....I'm so sick of folks overseas telling us how we should govern our nation...you want a utopian one world govt? Go have it amongst yourselves...we're not interested.

As to this war, get over it....we will do what we feel as a nation is right.
