Those are not very good examples because we also controlled Cuba, Haiti, Dominican Republic etc. So really we're not in their EEZ. They are in ours :D. I'm not being a hypocrite at all. If I was, I'd demand that China give up Tibet and Xinjiang. Hypocrisy is whining about the century of...

So let me see if I've got this right. Unreasonable demand and a threat of using "all means necessary" if they don't agree? Got it! Like I said in my previous post. All the niceties are for public consumption. Yeah, you expanded just like us. How do think you ended up with Tibet and that big...

People don't worry about us to swallowing up their territory. They just don't like to see us when they got something cooking. :p: We are the good guys. Not just today, but in history. No super power in the world has ever behaved as well as the U.S. Everyone used their military might to take...

I know distance doesn't matter to you and the world is your oyster. But the people living next to your long distance claims? They're a little freaked out. I don't even know what that means and how it pertains to the topic at hand. You did see that I said "we", right? I'm sure the ones that...

I hate you!!! I had a nice comeback lined up. Now what am I going to do with it?? :cray:

Give me a couple of examples, preferably from the recent past. I wouldn't want to drag us down the path of fighting over the sins of our forefathers. Oh by the way, you do know we're not party to UNCLOS, right? :D

You did see where I said "Considered", right? ISIS? Ok so I was being a dick. Afghan Taliban? It could be argued that there's a strong similarity there in the way things went down. Country just coming out of a serious war, struggling to find its footing, a new force backed by a neighbor based...

Glad you caught me on slow Saturday :D Taiwan is a poor example. Lincoln was the legitimate, elected representative of the United States. The communists weren't the legitimate government of the time. KMT was the considered the legitimate government. We did exactly the right thing by not...

That's why I wrote "Pursuit of freedom and democracy"

You might want to make that argument to the Chinese poster who called the pursuit of freedom and democracy "white worship"

The word you're looking for is "reins" not "reigns" There is no "trap". There is, however, a genuine concern that you're unnecessarily rocking the boat. In this day and age when people aren't hopping on boats and going off to colonize far off lands "in the name of the Crown", you're trying to...

"They want to make an example out of me to frighten the rest of the US into silence and submission," Geller wrote in an e-mail to the AP on Thursday. "This is not about me. This is about whether the US will stand for freedom or submit and cower before violent intimidation." Usaama Rahim, 26...

There's a flaw in your reasoning. We don't decide based on their religion. We only go by their stated agenda. There are plenty of mass murderers who's religion hasn't come into play. There are incredibly brutal drug cartels in Mexico. We've never inquired about their religious inclinations...

It's kinda sad that a law that was meant to protect qualified people from being discriminated against has turned into this.

Ah yes, Delusions of Grandeur. I've heard about it. I don't think I have ever heard about such a serious case. You should get that looked at. They say it might be a symptom of Bipolar Disorder or Schizophrenia.

The 2-3 times comes from the Viper0011 guy, you know the Pakistani pretending to be an African American christian? I'm sure you've run across him. Muslims always proudly point out that Islam is the fastest growing religion. I was just pointing out that the one biggest sources of new Muslims is...

Wow! Where do you get this stuff from? You passed the money and weapons we gave you to the Afghan fighters. Kinda like a go-between. Don't pretend like you fought this courageous war against the Soviet Union. Taliban was created by the ISI in the mid-90s well after the Soviet Union had collapsed...

Wow! You people have a completely different definition of everything than us. Here if somebody had kicked shit out of us, I mean busted up everything they could find, bombed us at will, we'd consider that a humiliating loss. But I guess that counts as a win in your neck of the woods. Lemme...

With what money? You might as well say no now and send them on their way.

That's 'cause they don't know how to run a state. How is that our fault?
