Nicaragua, Honduras, Panama, Iraq, Lebanon, Somali, Georgia, phillipines, Haiti, Columbia, arab-Israeli conflicts, Grenada, Cuba.
We are big on doing things "my way or the highway ". All for the fighting of communism/terrorism/democracy of course.
So let me understand this; you think Communist arrogance and domination is fine, but our efforts to prevent Communist takeovers of Governments in our hemisphere in particular and promote free market Democracies an example of arrogance? This has to be one of those "you're kidding me right?"
How are we arrogant in Iraq? If anything we removed an arrogant tyrant who laughed at the world and the UN and felt he could continue to defy the UN body’s resolutions for decades more. This also was a tyrant armed to the teeth by the Communist Soviet Union in an effort to extend their influence in the region.
Lebanon? How are we arrogant towards Lebanon; this should be good for a laugh or an "are you kidding me?"
Haiti? How are we arrogant towards Haiti; this should be good for a laugh or an "are you kidding me?"

Any of the above South American nations we could have dominated and taken over and removed their governments with ease. Our policy has been strictly to support regimes to prevent them from being overthrown by Communists.
Arab-Israeli conflicts? How are we arrogant towards Arab-Israeli conflicts; this should be good for a laugh or an "are you kidding me?"
In the particular issues of the Middle East, it requires historical ignorance at best to suggest that the US was the cause of all the issues and territorial fighting going on.
I look forward to specific examples in each of the above to prove your inane suggestion that America has somehow been arrogant towards it's South American neighbors instead of accommodating to those regimes that refuted Communism.
Being that you apparently are an apologist for Communism, perhaps a lecture on what is good about Communism in your mind is also in order.
Simplistic one liners just don’t do it for me dude.
Carry on. :2wave:
