There has never been a more generous country than the USA in the history of the world, yet people can't wait to complain about almost everything this country does. Anytime they do anything they are 'interfering' and any time they don't do anything they are 'insular and couldn't care less about anyone else.' Damned if they do, damned if they don't. Of course countries look after their own interests. Don't we all? Why should America be any different? Time to wake up and smell the bloody coffee.

Is that Nicaraguan coffee?
Seriously, I'm not getting on your backs, just stating a fact. Except for the demployment of small special forces in places such as Lebanon, Greneda, Panama, Hati and Bosnia, American involvement in more costly wide scale wars, has been determined by stategic position, or the oil wealth of the country.
