I agree that Americans should not be too complacent with their own technology. Underestimating the enemy is one of the gravest mistakes one can make in a battle/war. Americans must understand that everyone is human, therefore everyone can make mistakes. What you can think of, someone out there probably already thought of but didn't have enough funding to go through with it. Economic power is what gave American a head start and hopefully Americans will be smart and humble enough to realize that and not lose their place. Quote:
As for nations serving their own self-interest... I think every nation does that. The US does it to a larger extent because they think 3 steps ahead instead of just 1. If the US meddles in the affairs of a nation that may seem like it serves them no interest, it may serve the interest of a nation that in turn serves the interest of the US. Sound confusing? Ok, let me try to set an example: US helps nation C which almost serves them no interest, but in reality nation C serves the interest of nation B. Nation B is a major interest of the US. All I see when the US tries to help a nation in need is harsh criticism. For the US, it's damned if they do, damned if they don't. |

If you are trying to double cross my words and contunuely steer all of my efforts to revise and restate the topic back to its orginal "Feel"Then its hard to describe its effectiveness,I will try my hardest to prevent this from becoming a belligarent situation,and try to keep my efforts from falling into the depths as vain attempts to preseve a fasle sense of respect wich you think I keep in my self,this is ever growingly more and more pointless and Im am coming closer and closer to grasping the fact that I may as well be better off abandoning this thread than meandoring in a Catch 22 that I have created myself.....

If he is ashamed of his ethnic background there might be a reason. I am American Indian (Cherokee), German, Scottish, and probably a few that I'm not aware of. Quote:
Dollars are different today than they were when the other classes of carriers were built. Gas was under $1.00 a gallon when the Nimitz was built and by under a dollar a gallon I mean between $0.50 and $0.60 a gallon. The keel was laid down in 1968 and it was commissioned in 1972. Just to update gas prices, I paid $2.99 last week for a gallon of gas, and a couple of weeks before that I paid $3.19. |
