It was an American concept from the time of the Marshall Plan but with little or no cooperation from the Europeans, and of course the UN is a waste of space. Countries can do well without concerning themselves with "freedom and democracy" for others and it might be time the US to look solely after its own interests..Certainly no other countries care about freedom and democracy for others, except in a general sort of way.
Except in a general sort of way. What does that mean.
I'm sure the families of all this deaf British soldiers will agree with you.
Disgusting American chauvinistic filth. The US sets itself up as leader of the free world, consumes massive amounts of the worlds resources, ensures it's currency is the worlds currency... and we then have to listen to some of it's citizens who live in ignorant bliss of the fact that the US influences the lives of practically every citizen of the world, tell us that the world is none of their business.
The US never does anything which is not in it's own interests, including now in Libya. Never. Not once. Some of us are happy that the self interest which powers American living standards coincides with helping people achieve liberty and democracy...sometimes. Clever, been somewhere Americans know this as well despite their countrymen who imagine that we all live in unconnected little silos now.
