but what countries did we invade???????being in allied countries or is joint operations there does not back your point,by your same logic we have the right to attack canada because they have soldiers and ships in america for training and joint operations.
In the minds of the leaders of Saudi Arabia, Yemen, Afghanistan, etc? None.
In the minds of the citizens there? To them, we invaded Saudi Arabia, Iraq, Afghanistan, a whole HOST of countries.
Americans elected their leaders democratically, and those leaders let Canadian troops come around here. We haven't risen up in protest, a fairly credible sign that the American people accept Canadian troops here.
The people of Yemen and other nations did not approve of what their leaders did. The problem over there is that they aren't very democratic. Israel has a score of 7.53 which is only MODERATELY democratic. This means that in just about all issues, the government crams stuff down their people's throats - including Americans coming over there and ****ing with them.
Democracy in the Middle East - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Saudi Arabia is an absolute monarchy. Jordan, Kuwait, Morocco and Bahrain are partial (Constitutional) monarchies.
My point here is that the people we're fighting over there, had little choice in whether Americans are trampling around over them or their soil. We go over there and rape, kill, exploit and generally disrespect them. Are you still following me here? We've been doing this since at least World War II. We have been earning the reputation of the UGLY AMERICAN for decades in the Middle East, and the people hate us as a result. Their governments keep bending over for us, meanwhile, so guess what? Terrorism occurs.
If 50% of America opposed Canadian troops on our soil and Canadians kept coming, you betcha there would be terrorism. Especially if Canadians came here, built bases, shot people who protested nearby, raped people, made prostitutes out of the locals, etc. etc. etc.
There is about as much similarity between Canadian troops in the US and US troops in the Middle East as there is a similarity between sharks and coconuts.
