Haiti

Be careful, Tom. This is the woman who mocked me as being overly dramatic when I was contemplating evacuating in the path of Katrina. She has NO compassion for anyone.

But, I'll give her this. She's loyal. To what is quite questionable.

I was in Thailand in 2004 when the tsunami happened, the previous year I was staying on Patong beach, Phuket. I met many people who were in Phuket, Khao Lak and Krabi who gave me first hand accounts of the devastation.

They are there to help. Much like they did in the aftermath of the tsunami in '04. Did we occupy any of those nations?

Besides, there is no organization on the planet that can mobilize as many medical personnel and as much aid as quickly as our military. From doctors and medics to the ability to airlift cargo to the ability to produce 35,000 litres of freshwater a day, the US military is an excellent (if not critical) resource in the first days of the tragedy.

You are incorrect.

The People's Liberation Army is another such able body with reference to transport and logistical supply. They also do not borrow the money to finance their operations.

USA is better at losing wars, however, I must concede.

Korea, Vietnam, Iraq, Afghanistan. Have I forgotten any?

Tell me, if machete thugs in Haiti oppose your troops, will USA cut and run as they often do?

Changing directions when you are proven an idiot?

You asked if our military was there to pacify and occupy. Now you ask if we will run from local thugs armed with machetes?

Which is it?

It may be both.

You cut and ran from lighly-armed criminals in Somalia, and you are scheduled to retreat from Iraq soon. Is this correct?

Perhaps there is nothing in Haiti for USA to covet except cheap labor which you already exploit. Yet America always comes to 'help', and when they overstay their welcome as they always do, they must be forcibly ejected.

We were not in Somalia to conquer or subjugate. I know that may be difficult for you to understand, considering China's propensity for such military actions.

As for Iraq, we have planned to leave since we got there.



The nations we helped after the tsunami did not mind our presence. One nation waited until after we had saved them, and then asked us to leave. We left.

You are never on another's soil to conquer or subjugate, are you? Ask the resistance movements in the nations you 'help' and see your answer.

How about you ask the citizens of Tibet or Taiwan about subjugation?
 
yellow_peril said:
Taiwan is subjugated?

By whom?

Our internal policies are our business and not USA's. Do you not boast the exclusive right to meddle in your own sphere, the 'Monroe Doctrine'?

As for Tibet, this is our affair, not yours.

Taiwan has been threatened by China for how long?

Funny that you claim Tibet is your affair. A nation that has been subjugated by China and wishes to remain independent, and is being controlled by chinese military, is your affair?

And yet, you seem to think our affairs are open for your scorn?

Odd how that works, isn't it?

You may express your scorn apparently. Yet you dislike it when I express mine.

I express my scorn at your attacks on my home. And I express my scorn when you pretend that China is noble in it's foriegn policy.

I did not attack China until you came in posting your nonsense and propaganda. Please bear that in mind.



And just as an FYI, the subjugation of Tibet is an international affair.

Under the leadership of the Chinese central government, Tibet enjoys regional autonomy.

Currently, policies and rights implemented in Tibet include: regional legislative authority empowered by the State, the right to use and develop the Tibetan language, and the administrative right of regional economic development.

Since the 1980s, a series of preferential policies have been implemented in Tibet, such as agricultural tax exemptions in agricultural and pastoral areas.

The autonomous region is permitted to protect, develop and utilize local natural resources. The import and export tax rate in the region is lower than the national standard rate.

Policies encouraging the local handicraft industry and private sectors are practiced in the region.

China attaches importance to education in Tibet. Children in farming and pastoral areas receive education free of charge.

Residents in Tibet are provided with free medical services. Naturally there are those who criminally persist in acts of terrorism. Perhaps your remarks relate to these few?

Only a complete idiot like you would post a photoshopped picture and expect people to think it was real.
