Who is they? Western Europe or former bloc nations? .
France, Germany and Italy first of all.
Either way, let them.
45 years of Cold War, protecting them from the Soviet Union, only to see them grovel in fear over Russia's new face, while stabbing the protector in the back is quite the slap in the face. Let tem learn their lessons over and over and over again. They have a history of stabbing each other in the back for self-preservation and it continues today.
And if former bloc nations choose to forget what life was under the curtain with some stupid illusion that things will be different this time around, let them lie in their beds.
I've become a firm believer that we should be extremely bold in our declarations that America's first priority is America, not the world. We have economic issues to sort out and for the first time since isolationalism we have an oppotrunity to look inward rather than allow others to use us while they look inward. Europe's in need of a lesson. One we shouldn't bother to stick around for. .
You have ignored my argument that now we are not capable of isolationism, we came to the point when we are dependant on China’s money. We cannot produce. We are turning into a 3rd world country production wise, even toys are produced for us by Communist China. Games of virtual money put us into the hole. Oil, we need oil. Islam is not willing to get us of the hook, nor we can afford to back up. Medvedev makes announcements about Latin America on the flight from Venezuela. What isolationism are you talking about?
It is very childish to hope that they will learn a lesson. We shouldn’t care. We should stick around the world for America, who cares about their lessons.
It sucks for you. Yes it sucks. It pisses you off, yes it is a pissed off situation. Stop complaining soldier. Pull yourself together and start making right decisions.
We should have intelligent people in the gov-nt. Somebody should understand the new realities both in America and in the world. Somebody should position America in the right way in the new tides. Should, should, should... nobody is there, even you are def and blind. I am afraid we are the ones who would have to learn a lesson in a hard way.
