You said....." What about when a group of people who have come half ways around the earth, making religious claims on your land, bring a new culture, technology, and unrivaled financial instruments to dominate you?"....
What the heck you talking about now??
In what way did the USA make religious claims, all religions are free here.
All cultures of the world live in the USA. How many Americans live freely in Arab lands and do so without constant fear??
Finanicial and technology instruments have been of great benefit to those countries, that is those countries that want to advance into the 20th Century. Without the USA Those folks over there would'nt even know what oil was, how to get at it, what could be done with it, or just how rich their countries could become by selling it. Do you think for one moment that they are not happy to sell oil to us??
The USA and its allies have made mistakes and what countries have not??
But we keep moving forward while those who want to destroy us move backwards.
