But, its a cop out to sit back and say..."they hate us cus we're on top". I dont see it that way. They hate us, cus we feel the need to push our policies on the world. Our way is the right way. Thats how we are seen. If the roles were reversed, and say a country like Iraq was the biggest power in the country. And they kept their troops in your backyard. And regardless of what you wanted, their policies were shoved down yur throat...youd probably resent them.
Iraq is a backwards country and had no chance of taking over anywhere or spreading an unjust political idea. even if it had tried ot invade neighbors, even Iran or Kuwait could probably hold them off with very limited aid from the UN. its even highly questionable he even has any working WMDs anymore. Saddam is only a danger to the people of Iraq, which takes us back to the whole 'liberating' issue. Well obviously anybody with a somewhat intelligent world view would see there are plenty of people around the world in similar or even worse conditions that Iraqis. Libya, plenty countries in Africa and South America (even Cuba, whose poverty the US has caused itself through sanctions) and others. Nobody wants to liberate those people. Why is that?
