America and its coalition has a role of maintening a world order to prevent countries going to war against each other. It is because of America that we did not had a word war for the last 60 years. In the past... it prevented countries like Russia and China from starting anything. And it contributed to the collapse of communism in Russia and Eastern Europe. This world order was enforced in 1991 when Saddam Hussein invaded Kuwait. While some of us in the West have turned politically correct and love to sing "imagine"... the world has not changed. If America did lose its power... you would have anarchy amongst countries. Countries like Israel would have been wiped out long time ago. The middle east would hold the west to ramson over its oil. And there are countless countries which had to ask for protection from the U.N. By not allowing countries like Iran to go nuclear... we are simply preventing a nuclear war in the future. You simply don't give your ennemy the tools to kill you. It is common sense. To believe that a country like Iran will do the right thing by us... is like believing that Santa Claus will come down your chimney on Christmas day.

First of all, we, the united states, DO in fact give BILLIONS in aid to other countries and the poor. BILLIONS. Seond, there are certain countries we don't want to see get these weapons because they would most certainly give them to people who would most certainly use them on ME. It's not nessesarily "other countries" we don't want to have them , only certain countries. Yes we are the only nation to ever use nuclear weapons on another country, that is widely known, HOWEVER, it was only in the beginning before we fully understood the ramifications of these things AND only after a plan was exposed between japan and germany to combine the technology they developed omongst themselves and use them in an attack on 4 U.S. west coast cities. This is not propaganda but absolute fact, look it up, it was the key issue in the final decision to use the weapons on nagasaki and hiroshima. I ask you again, before you start verbaly attacking my country, to look up facts and look deeper in to the story and ideals you are expounding.

I believe instead of investing to these weapons of mass destruction, they should rather invest it in business that would strengten more the economy. Or it would be better that these countries would help the poor countries if they don't have anymore to put up with their money instead of buying these weapons.
