However in many cases they were instigated under false pretext for the right reasons. The best examples are in WWii where FDR despertly wanted to join the defence of Europe, but was unable to do it due to public dissent. The WMD issue may have been exagerated and used as a pretext, but the result was benevolent, and riteous. In the Balkhans Milesovic would still be butchering people if we left the worlds leadership to spineless, beurocratic, and cowerdly nations like France and Germany. In the storm of adversity it is those who make the difficult and unpopular stance that have moved the nations of the world towerds civility. Now, I dont love the way the American Government has dealt with the aftermath of the war in Iraq, but questioning the logic of removing a leader who has killed Millions of people needs no justification. I am just glad there is someone in the world who, for whatever the pretext they choose, has the fortitude to spend money and presious life to remove such cancer's from the Human existence. As the 2nd generation of a holacoust survivor, I sure wish France, and England had the same fortitude when Germany annexed poland, austria and the czckleslovokia. If they had maybee I would have known my grandparents, uncles aunts and cousins. As all you American bashers salivate over every American loss of life, and failure, just picture what the world would be like without America. As America descends into its fall, as debt and arogence overcome ethic and wealth I am sadned at the world my 4 week newborn will venture into one day. What will it be like without American leaqdership to bash? What will it be like when the world is focused in the East instead of the West? The world is changing, America is in its middle ages, so keep bashing. Maybee you will find the grass isnt quite as Green on the other side when America isnt calling the shots. Guess youd prefer the french or chinese?
