Question

Give any side of your opinion. Thanks

Answer 1

no,please stop that.We don't want you,we never had and we are tired of you stealing natural resources pretending you are are the help

Answer 2

LET THE FRENCH DO IT !!!!!

Answer 3

No.  You have plenty of problems in your own country that could be solved by spending a small fraction of what you spend on the ongoing Iraq fiasco.  Clean up your own yard before you try to solve everyone else's problems.  Besides, it may only be a problem in your eyes.  The rest of the world may not need (or want) a McDonalds or WalMart on every block.

Answer 4

USA doesn't took itself the role of policing the world but the position is the result of the objectives and the polices pursued for its national and international interest! The way the modern state to exist and to continue its bilateral and multilateral relations for trade and  business and all other exchange always force the nation who plays major  role in huge volume of exchange to have the watch and control the world events to its advantage for survival!

  

US is actually got involved every where due to its money involved and due to its need of huge natural resources which can only be exploited in the soil where it is available and so the politics and  economics of other nations comes under US management, forcing it inherent involvement and policing the world at large! Since the world wide trade and business involved has the great share of profit  sharing to thousands of billions of dollarsand the associated politics, this country which had built up a huge military industrial complex is serving the world more with arms and ammunition to create regional conflicts and to tap the change in socio-political conditions to gain them for US advantage!

The money and power linked to balancing the international politics and the economic order has invariably made the US to police the world, which is now getting changed due to economic boom of other nations suddenly making the US as unbalanced in its policing efforts bringing huge losses to the nation and its people, pulling down its economy to unforeseen budget deficit, economic recession and the energy crisis! Added, the superiority of US lies in the talent of best brains as available on Earth is not been geared up to  discuss and take measures that most suits the USA for its advancement in other field, lowering its  external dependence including the oil, jobs, capital etc! This is the major flaw on the management where we find some political crooks are deciding the course for the US and its policing of the WORLD AT  LARGE, so only we witness the crisis in US in every sector of economy!

Answer 5

Nope, every hatemongering country for themselves from now on.  And roll up the immigration red carpet for a few years as well.   Tax payer dollars for aid go ONLY to Americans.

Answer 6

NO

Answer 7

Nobody loves a bent cop. Ask the Palestinians.

Answer 8

We need to focus on our own problems first and foremost.  After that we should help people who ask for it second.  We should not be removing tyrannts from leadership roles unless we are directly threatened, though I do agree that Sadam was the worst person on the planet at the time and should have been removed.

Answer 9

You really need to watch the new documentary "The Listening Project".  We have no freaking clue what our policing does to the rest of the world.  I just caught a screening of it last week...enlightened me.

Answer 10

we shouldnt because right now, we are undergoing an inflation and we need to focus on us bringing our economy back where it belongs

Answer 11

WE should cocentrate on being the police of our own country, the many war veterans who are homeless, the uneducated people working low paying jobs, the crimes, and many other issues that we dont focus on because our leaders want us to focus on whether g*y marriage is right, and such.

Answer 12

No.  We should just concentrate on ourselves......take care of our own citizens first, before others.

Answer 13

American had better start taking care of its own people first. The rest of the World can solve their own problems. They live there and know their situtations that needs to be taken care of.   Homeless, medica,l and housing needs is a problem here in America and getting bigger. We'll end up being another Third World Country if America don't start taking care of its own.

Your Welcome.  smile

Answer 14

Nope.  That's not our job.  We also don't have the resources.

I don't believe we are the world's police.  If we were, Sudan would not have been killing their Christians for the past 25 years.  We are in Afghanistan and Iraq to protect our own country by cutting off the terrorists at the source.  We went into Iraq based on the intelligence we had available at that time.

Answer 15

With more than one percent of their population in jail, economic recession, housing crisis, obesity epidemic and a leader who just wants to go to war with anyone he doesn't like, I think they should look after their own problems first.

Answer 16

We should give a break to the USA, and Let Mexico be the wold's police for a while.

Answer 17

No and I am sick and tired of paying for all of this nonsense monitarily and in American lives...I am broke, my countrymen are dying and that is just my opinion.

Answer 18

I heard this book might give you the best answer "1984"by George Orwell. It might show you how we need the war and so on.  Anyway in the local, city,state or province we all need security. Security means money and power (man power, weaponry, and machinery), people who need the security help pay tax to support local security enforcement. Even though sometimes we hate our police (abusive one) but we have to pay them any way; I think is far better than pay gang Mafia for protection.

USA is going around the world without getting request and PAY FOR to provide security to numerous countries. THAT IS VERY NOBLE AND GENEROUS. WWWait ta minute! That is too good to be true. Yeah it is. It sounded like gang Mafia go around NY City to provide security to businesses, if any business owner didn't pay up gang Mafia will beat him up. That is how USA police the world right now like gang Mafia.

If legitimately established and countries around the world asking for and pay for USA should be a police state for ever and never, because USA don't need to be productive society any more, all production jobs are shipping to China and India. In contrarily right now we are going around the world stir up the peace and create havoc around the world with our own money and our own will. I don't think we be police without pay very long or another word we can't be Mafia any longer.( I knew Mafia gang they get some money from businesses.)

   Better yet, look at Chinese they stay out of being bully business, police I mean. How much money they save to provide food to feed their own billion people instead of going around the world blowing things up like we do.

Answer 19

Buy worlds police do you mean for accepting bribes from oil rich countries and ignoring the poor countries that have no natural resources for the U.S. to steal?

Answer 20

Yes ,Unless you know of any other Nation strong enough to take on the Job.

Answer 21

No. US constitution and treaties do not have a world wide 'police' obligation stated. Some treaties agreed to as Constitution sets forth procedure are the result of war or conflict resulution- as Korean military  bases as part of defense of S Korea after Korean War, the  occupation bases in Germany and Japan after WW2, the mutual aid posting of Americans in UK by agreement. Gauntonamo is long term lease by treaty from Spanish-American war, rent is paid as provided for in original agreement. Philipines were also by original treaty and post WW2 agreements- when end of agreement and mutual extension couldn't be agreed upon the US left Manilla Bay - no current lease, no staying without agreement with host country. Some people say US should act as world police in Burma and Darfur- but there is no Constitutional procedure as in defense treaty, protectorate status, or American interest in those areas and US should not be expected to unilaterly invade the area.  Iraq was taken as part of a UN peace treaty agreement violation and action resulution that the US had a treaty obligation to the UN to enforce- other countries also helped enforce UN resulutions. US obligations outside of UN are limited to prior ongoing treaties- Police obligations are minimal. US laws restrict private citizens from doing effective support in various countries of a police or military nature while history of old Soviet Union has cases of trainers and weapons provided to 'revolutionary/Marxist fraternal' groups in Africa and S.America openly, Soviet citizens at times were told they had an obligation to spread socialism. Cuba sent many of its young men to fight in Angola as a 'socialist obligation'- this was also to pay back Russia for goods, can't send enough sugar to pay for oil- then send mercenaries/Mamalukes to help Soviets. Kosova was in Europe as a European/UN problem- US attacks on Serbia were distantly based on some resulutions from UN and Nato (and give Clinton a political scandal break?).

Answer 22

well the U.S government shall look inside what's going on in our own nation before ohters territory. The U.S economy is dropping rapidly and they should focus on how to save our economy first...
