Re: Iraq - Russia
Yea but the question still remains...<br /><br />How does the U.S. deal with this?<br /><br />Are we suppose to trust them still?<br /><br />Are we suppose to keep sending them money to help the Russian people with needs that their own government won't give them?<br /><br />The Russians probably made a fortune off of Iraq...where is that money?<br /><br />I know they did not help Iraq for free!<br /><br />I understand that Russia has problems, but we have problems here in the U.S. too!<br /><br />All I hear is that the U.S. has to stand behind Russia in order to keep it from falling back into communism.<br /><br />What about the education system, social security, the national debt here in the U.S...nooo, third world problems are more important!<br /><br />It seems everybody elses economic issues are thrown into America's lap, and the American people are suppose to pay for it.<br /><br />I don't see Russia offering to help pay for the war in Iraq, but they want control in Iraq!<br /><br />Is it the American citizens fault that they work the hardest, the longest hours, without the holidays that most other nations have, and pay the highest tax rates of any other nation.<br /><br />And yes, that makes us the richest country!<br /><br />So the rest of the world is jeolous of Americans and they feel that the U.S. should just throw money at them and if we don't send them money, they claim Americans are greedy, aragant, and selfish.<br /><br />Jelousy is most of the worlds problem, not the U.S.A.<br /><br />If they would rather have 30 day holiday's(like Rammaddan), then suffer, don't blame the U.S.<br /><br />Why keep sending the Russians money when they do not have to account, or repay that money.<br /><br />This is taxpayer dollars being sent to Russia to help them get back on their feet ( we set up schools, social services, etc.)after the fall of the Soviet Union, and this how we are thanked...by helping those who oppose us?<br /><br />The U.S. seems to give everyother country the very things that the U.S. needs, and all the U.S. gets for its generacity is a kick in the arss.<br /><br />President George Bush stated after Sept. 11, 2001, "that nations are either with the U.S. or they are with the terrost's"...so is Russia with the terrorist?<br /><br />It seems to me that this thing in Iraq is only the portion of the iceburg that is above water...remember, 75% of iceburgs are hidden.<br /><br />All we hear about in the media is how is the rest of the world is going to look at the U.S. after this thing is over in Iraq.<br /><br />Shouldn't it be...how is the rest of the world going to look at the rest of the world when this thing is over?<br /><br />Sorry to rant, but I feel that hatred of America is going to run wild and it will not be the Americans fault...it will be jeolousy!<br /><br />If the rest of the world wants what America has, then they have to work for it... NOT THE AMERICAN PEOPLE GIVING THEIR HARD EARNED MONEY TO UNGRATFUL THIRD WORLD COUNTRIES !
