    Do we have a right to be concerned about the actions of other countries (even if they are similar actions as our own)? - Of course we do.
    Do we have a right to display a Holier-than-thou attitude? - Nope

    We (the US) aren't the only ones protesting, Japan, Britain, and Australia are voicing the same opinion.



    "Britain, Japan and Australia joined the United States on Friday in voicing concern about the rising militarization of space after China successfully carried out a test of an anti-satellite weapon."

    Would they have voiced concern if we had not? No way of ever knowing, but I think not.

    Everyone wants to stand behind the bully, but when the bully is no where to be found all is generally peaceful.

    I disagree that ...we deserve to get our asses blown up"



    If another country moved their military forces into our country and / or forced their beliefs on us time and time again, what would we ultimately do? We would stand up for what we believe our own rights to be. There is a high probability that attacks against the threatening country would occur.

    Our actions the past 20 years have now made this scenario a reality for us.

    I disagree. My OPINION is that our governments actions and intentions have put us citizens directly in harms way.

    What about all the aid we provide to Africa that has saved hundred of thousands (if not millions) of lives, meddling in their business. You focus primarily on the negative while avoiding the positive in forming your opinions which makes you a pessimist



    Your scenario above is not meddling in their business. Telling a country what they can and can not do is meddling. Offering financial assistance is not.

    There is a difference between being a savior and being a war monger.

  • Lets face it. We think we are badasses. We think we have the right to dictate our beliefs to the rest of the world and force them to adopt them or else. We police the world, we interject when we should not. We monitor the world and then act on any injustice that takes place on other soils.

    China blows up a satellite of their own and we get all pissy about it.

    http://www.cnn.com/2007/TECH/space/01/18/china.missile/index.html

    "Under a space policy authorized by President Bush in August, the United States asserts a right to "freedom of action in space" and says it will "deter others from either impeding those rights or developing capabilities intended to do so."

    We have these capabilities and have used them in the past. Yet, when another country demonstrates the same capabilities we feel the need to step up and bitch about it. >:( They blew up their own fucking satellite for christs sake!!! Who the fuck are we to say that is wrong and that they must concede to our regulations? It's ok for us to have these capabilities, but no one else? What a crock of shit.

    Our government is responsible for the threats we now must live with on a daily basis. Our government is responisble for all terrorist actions carried out against us citizens. Stay the fuck out of everyones business and perhaps we can live safer lives.

    We are crooked cops, nothing more, nothing less.

    The us government sucks. The us government is responsible for murdering it's own citizens.

    Yes. It is a very secret society though. Post a picture of your mother's breasts and I will at that point provide you with the url. :|
