As an American who served my country with distinction, I have no problem with stateing truth and well documented historical facts, WE HAVE NEVER been the police of the world, fact is we have been historys greatest international gangster. And like all gangsters, our destiny is defined by that fact. By the way, there has never been an Presidential administration who has been free of criminality. Take it, or let it alone. WE ARE THE GOOD GUYS IS REGULATED TO THE ANALS OF HISTORICAL MYTH.


Which war did you serve in, you look too young for Vietnam. And yes, we have been and are the bullies of the world.
looks are deceiving, 52 years young, mighty skybirds all day, 325th, 82nd airborne.USA, fallujah, Iraq, 2002-2004.

You are asking the wrong questions.


I recognise the validity of his questions, but then, perhaps I don't share your confirmation bias.

Your government has just sanctioned $123 million to the Syrian opposition which includes the Nusra Front and Al Qaeda who according the your government are terrorists.


Incorrect, the funds are awarded to the FSA via the SNC who aren't affiliated with Al-Qaeda or the Nusra Front.

What you have in Syria is a proxy poxy war.


This is a myth put about by those who merely hate the US and don't know what they are talking about. I'd just ignore it.

What is happening in Syria is being decided by America on one side and Russia on the other, that is a proxy not a myth.

Just read an article that suggests that the white house may have given the green light for a chemical weapon attack in Syria. The article has been withdrawn from the Daily Mail in England. I will try and relocate it.

Yes , very wild indeed. That is what happens in a proxy war, false flag counters false flag and on it goes. Nothing is real anymore. Everything seems to manufactured these days, even dissent. On the other hand dissent is gagged when it suits the bullies.

To answer the question posed by the title of this thread, I am of the opinion that "Barry" has absolutely no respect for law at all, whether international or domestic/national. He is IMO, nothing but a tyrannical pirate, looting the country with his banking buddies (using the ignorance & fear of the people as the primary tool) and quite willing to kill anyone or destroy anything (foreign or domestic) that gets in the way.

He has to be stopped for the good of the nations, but who is going to arrest him and bring him before a court of competent jurisdiction to answer the many charges?

I see, so accuracy is irrelevant to your confirmation bias. So be it.

TYPES
OF IMPERIALISM
Europeans
began building their empires in the western hemisphere in the early 1500s, but
by the 1800s, Spain and Portugal were no longer powerful countries, and
the largest British colony had become the United States. Britain, France, Germany, Russia, and the Netherlands continued to colonize during this era,
but they also devised other ways to spread their empires. In the late 19th
century Japan and the United States joined the European nations as an
imperialist power.
Types
of imperialism in the 1800s included:
Colonial imperialism - This
form of imperialism is virtual complete takeover of an area, with
domination in all areas: economic, political, and socio-cultural. The
subjugated area existed to benefit the imperialist power, and had almost
no independence of action. In this era, almost all of Africa
and southern and southeast Asia were colonized.
Economic imperialism - This
form of imperialism allowed the area to operate as its own nation, but the
imperialist nation almost completely controlled its trade and other
business. For example, it may impose regulations that forbid trade with
other nations, or imperialist companies may own or have exclusive rights
to its natural resources. During this era, China
and most of Latin America were subjected to
economic imperialism.
Political imperialism -
Although a country may have had its own government with natives in top
political positions, it operated as the imperialist country told it to.
The government was sometimes a relatively permanent "puppet
government," as happened in late Qing China, and other times the
control was temporary, as occurred in the Dominican Republic when the
United States ran its government until it got out of debt.
Socio-cultural imperialism -
The dominating country deliberately tried to change customs, religions and
languages in some of the countries. A good example was British
India, where English was taught in schools, Indian soldiers
dressed British-style, and western trading rules were set up. Generally,
the imperialist countries assumed their cultures to be superior, and often
times they saw themselves as bringing about improvements in the society.

you forgot Ottoman and Islamic Imperialism!
Improving for 1800years!
Guess it was just an oversight!
But I guess the Balkan-People,and Eastindians could tell you a Tale or two!
How come you are not trying to live for a while under those Systems you are extolling!
Bet you'd love Western Democracy afterward!

The days of Empire are over. Now we can all either remain within our own borders or get together and agree to a system that benefits all of mankind.
