You are one of those who shoots first and thinks later-something which is profoundly tragic for a full grown man.

Are you telling me that you know nothing about American military bases around the world?

Have you forgotten about Hiroshima and Nagasaki?

Have you forgotten about Vietnam and Cambodia and America's support for Sukarno of Indonesia?

Do you know anything about America's role in the Russian default of 1998?

Do you think expansion is always about the surrounding areas?

I have no idea if you are well over 40 years old, but cognitive dissonance is beyond tragic and I intend to tackle this in an article, very shortly.
