Plan for Peace

Here's a plan for peace for all people who are sick to death of America sticking its nose in where it isn't wanted.


1) "The US will apologize to the world for its "interference" in
their affairs, past & present. You know, Hitler, Mussolini, Stalin,
Tojo, Noriega, Milosevic, Hussein, and the rest of those 'good ole
boys', we will never "interfere" again.

2) We will withdraw our troops from all over the world, starting with
Germany, South Korea, the Middle East, and the Philippines. They
don't want us there. We would station troops at our borders. No one
allowed to sneak through holes in the fence.

3) All illegal aliens have 90 days to get their affairs together and
leave. We'll give them a free trip home. After 90 days the
remainder will be gathered up and deported immediately, regardless of
whom or where they are. They're illegal!!! France may welcome
them.

4) All future visitors will be thoroughly checked and limited to 90
days unless given a special permit!!!! No one from a terrorist
nation will be allowed in. If you don't like it there, change it
yourself and don't hide here. Asylum would never be available to
anyone. We don't need any more cab drivers or 7-11 cashiers.

5) No foreign "students" over age 21. The older ones are the
bombers. If they don't attend classes, they get a "D" and it's back
home baby.

6) The US will make a strong effort to become self-sufficient energy
wise. This will include developing nonpolluting sources of energy
but will require a temporary drilling of oil in the Alaskan
wilderness. The caribou will have to cope for a while.

7) We'll offer Saudi Arabia and other oil producing countries $10 a barrel
for their oil. If they don't like it, we'll go some place else. They
can go somewhere else to sell their production. (About a week of the
wells filling up the storage sites would be enough.)

If there is a famine or other natural catastrophe in the world, we
will not "interfere." They can pray to Allah or whomever, for seeds,
cash, cement or whatever they need. Besides, most of what we give to
them is stolen or given to the army. The people who need it most
get very little, if anything.

9) UN Headquarters will be shipped to an isolated island some place. We
don't need the spies and fair weather friends here. Besides, the
building would make a good homeless shelter or lockup for illegal
aliens.

10) All Americans must go to charm and beauty school. That way, no
one can call us "Ugly Americans" any longer. The Language we speak
is ENGLISH...learn it...or LEAVE...Now, isn't that a winner of a
plan?

Sounds like a good plan to me John. I think it is all possible except maybe number 10. In the US you speak English fairly well. You just struggle a little with the spelling :)

How can we be sure there is not a fanatic or 2 hiding amongst them waiting to get into britain. We have a few at the moment and cannot do anything about it.
 
What about Fergie, the international ambassador, for that American company Weight Watchers?

Do you still need her as the biggest guzzlers of junk food in the world?


Will she still be able to enter the land of the free, under these draconian measures?

thats true spug-we welcome them whilst gaoling poll tax pensioners. :D
 
this tickled me 5) No foreign "students" over age 21. The older ones are the

home babywhat happened to london?
in my opinion they will do as they please!

That means america will lose all their tourist dollars! Every country in the world has 'terrorists' so what will america do when they dont have all that money going into their country - think disneyland las vegas etc.
 
Tell me if I am wrong but I think John's post was a bit of a rant at the people who, he feels, are ungrateful at Americas contribution to the world over the last 60 years?
Apart from items 1 and 2, I am fine with your suggestions. People are not ungrateful for WWII efforst of America. Just dont claim all the credit. Sadam is a different matter....
All people want is for America to help when necessary like everybody else does.
The oil suggestion is as inworkable as the author probably knows, and Alaska should be left. America uses more oil per capita than any other country in the world. And is rightly critized for this.
Yes, I know I put a 'z' in critised and I am ashamed of it.
Good thread though, we need more of em like this.

Cheers...

Whilst we appreciate your help you didn't win it on your own. you were just the straw that broke its back. remember WW2 was going on a fair while before you joined in.

I can't see many people disagreeing with you here.

So everyone except the original Indians will be asked to leave? Your country has one major redeeming feature and that is its integrated society from all over teh world. Remember your ancestors were once foreigners in that land of yours.

Thats fine, China and India will happily soak up the surplus, we aren't dependant on you to use all the world production. Maybe even fuel prices in teh UK will fall a bit

But from items 2,3 and 4 you obviously don't want to be part of a united 'world' so why should you care when it comes to disasters. per head capita your contributions are often far less than poorer developing countries.

I do like this last point. However as a flip, why do most English speaking countries fail miserably to speak other countries languages when in their homelands. If you want to make this happen you should also expect all foreign countries to ignore you when you try shouting at them for a coffee.

To George Saint

Spot on George with your first paragraph. Hell, I know America is far from perfect but whatever it does it's always wrong. Damned if they do, damned if they don't. I don't think that America has ever considered they won WW2 alone, with the exception of some of our friends in Hollywood with acute imaginations and, unfortunately, a worldwide and gullible audience. However, I cannot take credit for being the 'author' of the piece. That has to go to Robin Williams and perhaps I should have credited him in the original post. I was remiss and hope that this puts that to rights. I have not seen you post before George, welcome.


To Entwistle,

Just so you know, I'm a Brit, so I am not a 'colonial' who has never left America's shores. I agreee, WW2 was going a fair while before America (not we) joined in. However, I think without the plethora of supplies coming over the mighty pond prior to the troops arriving, we (The Brits) would have had a much harder time containing Herr H. There is more than one way to give help and they did.

European countries plundered every continent and colonised them as we all well know. It's far too late to give the land back to the Apache and the Sioux. However, you are correct, America does try really hard to integrate people from all over the world into its society. Hence the greencard lottery. It has far more than one redeeming feature as you are also well aware.

I think there would be much more of an oil surplus than India and China could take up in the short term don't you? They're not like our 'two car +' family countries.

With regard to your 'contributions per capita' paragraph, I would be interested to hear where you get your figures from. I was of the opinion that there are more dollars leaving these shores, both private and governmental, in the name of charity than any other country in the world so I'm not quite with you there. Also, there are only around 260M people in this vast country. Maybe you would care to expand on that. I stand to be corrected if I am wrong on that one.

In France, they do ignore you if you request a coffee in any other language but theirs. So both Americans and Brits are in the same boat there eh?

:) ;)
