Of course, I do, but you have to ask yourself, why does the US have to be the policeman for the world? Why do we have to be on first to solve every problem in the world? If we spent more time solving our own problems and less time telling every other country how to govern and how to live, maybe we'd have fewer enemies and maybe our own country wouldn't be falling apart as it is now. We've become arrogant, fat, lazy, and all too self-important. Time to get back to basics and reinvent America for the 21st century.

Well the NUKES in Pakistan cannot compared to our mother load. Who worries about us ? Is it because we have been the most pacifistic country in the world. What country in the past 20 years has had more troops deployed and gone into other sovereign countries uninvited. Pakistan ? Now your argument is that they are too irrational and of course terrorists. So we cannot know what to expect. What they can expect is to blown off the face of the earth if they ever would attempt a nuke on this country. Or is this not enough of a deterrent for you ?
