not that there is any enemy that has missile capacble of reaching europe or the us, and if they do, they wont ever use them (see cold war). USA needs to **** off to their own continent.

This can be boiled down to:
USA: What if terrorists shoot a missile at us? We need a missile defense shield. Scientists, get on it.
WORLD: OMG JOO NOOBS!!! You can't shoot down a missile with a missile!!! ROFLLOLZ!!!1
USA: Oh no? We'll see about that.
/ EIGHT YEARS LATER
USA: WTFPWNZOR!!!!! DEFENDERZ SHOOTING DOWN YER MISSILES!!!!
WORLD: WTF!!! OMG they can't do that!!!
USA: Lulz.
The truth is, if old Pooty Poot in Russia had this technology they would implement it right this second.

During the coldwar, US placed tactical nuclear weapons in europe, when Russia tried to the same in Cuba, US told them to **** of, or they would sink the ships carrying the weapons. Thankfully the Russians backed down, because I dont think US would have done that. Just imagine the scenario after that, and the only country we coudl blame for starting the 3rd WW, would be US.....
And before some US citizens say we Europeasn are a ungrateful lot, since they saved us from the germans, I say its funny you decided to join, only after the Russians had lost millions of soldiers to wear down the German military forces.... something to think of hmm ? |

Ok history buff, we made a deal with the russians to move our nukes out of east europe (poland i think, not sure) in exchange for them moving their nukes out of our cuba.
America has an isolationist past, we always avoided getting involved in other countries affairs. Our founding fathers had that in mind when they created this country, it's not something to be ashamed of. After WWII, we became the World Police because we got tired be being dragged into these huge wars.
Ironically enough, everyone complained when we left the world alone before WWII, and now that we try to get involved and be a policing force, everyone complains.

ROFLCOPTER!!!!!!!
The americans only helped the europeans to prevent world war II from getting out of their hands and for the power and economic boost that it gave them.
It was only because of WWII that the American economy boomed and became wealthy. Had they stayed out of WWII, they would have risked that the german empire expanded too far and become too powerful for them to take down should they decide to conquer the America's as well. Also, had the Russians destroyed the Germans on their own they would have become economically and politically powerful and influental while the US would not.
Also, in order to grow, the Americans needed the European market. It was the purpose of the Marshall help to help the European economies grow and be able to buy American products.
If you really think that the Americans helped the Europeans just for helping them and not for their own gain, you are not only nanve but also stupid.

My opinion of USA presence in Europe is that US gave Europe, us protection so we could create our fat welfare states while US had little social protection that means lots of poor peeps in ghetto's shoot up on ******. USA forced my country UK into a strategic alliance with the yanks after forcing us out of Suez. UK has benefited economically from US support at a cost of a divided Europe. USA's policy in Europe is divide and rule, though we can spend our taxes on welfare rather than guns. Still EU's lack of will in the Bosnia conflict was pathetic.
Europe should start spending money on defense or make sharp sticks as Russia is rightly getting more assertive ................................................ I post with my main, so should you. Alt's are hecklers |

Sorry to burst your bubble, but Germany declared war against the USA after Japan bombed pearl harbor. Somthing to do with a treaty Germany and Japan had signed.
Would I like to close USA borders? Hell yeah...let you people kill off each other then see what is left...
