The only reason that Holland hasn't needed to get involved in any wars is because of the Pax Americana. Isn't the high ground lovely. Maybe the 'war mongering' Americans should have not bothered entering WW2 and you could be still sucking Nazi dick to this day.Scot Dutchy wrote:It does not need much to get the US fighting does it; a few lies and untruths are usually enough.

Re: Election 2016 Thread
Why doesn't the right embrace Hillary?
For nation building foreign intervention.
Helped her husband cover up sexual harassment by shaming his victims.
No problem exploiting cripples and minorities for political gain.
In with big banking industry.
Entirely open to being bought.
Wants to censor kids' media to protect them when their parents won't.
Entirely in favor of more pro-USA patriotic propaganda.
Just as Christian as the polls tell her she needs to be.

From an ebooklet from 2004: which of these 4 attributes apply to which Presidential candidate?:
The judgment to know the right thing to do
The integrity to do it
The character to stand up to those who don't
The courage to stop those who won't

The War Against ISIS/ISIL
The 2011 Libyan War
The Iraq War from 2003 to 2005
The Afghan War post-9/11/01
Operation Ocean Shield (Somalia)
Kosovo War
Bosnian War
Persian Gulf War
Operation Trikora (Indonesia)
Korean War
Indonisian National Revolution
World War 2
Dutch-Venezuelan War
Dutch-Bali War
So, clearly, the Dutch can take the moral high ground and point fingers at others.

Re: Election 2016 Thread
Since it's appropriate to judge a candidate by who its supporters are, take note that the Communist Part of the US strongly supports Hillary Clinton. I have not heard her disavow their support. Does she disavow the support of the group which calls for violent overthrow of the American government? http://peoplesworld.org/landslide-in-november/
