Worldly represenative

Iran wants nuclear power. Why shouldn’t we give it to them? Why is it that only the US can have all the nuclear energy they want, but the rest of the world can’t unless the States says it’s alright to do so?

I don’t understand. Are the Americans superior to the rest of the world? Are they smarter and more capable at understanding the possible effects of uranium fuelled energy?

No they are not. They are just afraid that these countries like Iran will use their new weapons on the States.

Why would they do that? Because the US can’t leave other countries alone. The States is a capitalist economy and will stop at nothing to make money.

They’ll take over governments (Iraq & Afghanistan).

They’ll reap the benefits of war torn nations (Reagan’s weapongate scandal).

They’ll impose their economic power with trade tariffs (Cuba, Canada’s soft-wood lumber and cattle industries).

The US has made too many enemies over the years and is starting to become afraid.

Retaliation is a bitch.

If one country can have all the weapons they want, then everyone should be able to.

It’s not fair that the US can bomb anyone whenever they want, and no one else can.

I’m not saying that we should let Iran go nuts with nuclear power. I wish no one had access to that kind of destructive power.

I wish no one pissed someone else off to want to use that kind of force against another nation.

It sucks.

I sometimes wonder if a common enemy would help bring our world together, like in Independence Day.

I liked the movie, but holy crap was it ever a tribute to the great US of A.

In the movie the human race comes together to destroy evil aliens.

Would we really be able to discard the barriers we’ve created in time to pull together a full-scale assault on another species of intelligent life forms.

Or if they came in peace, who would get to be the Earth’s representative?

I bet the US would bump elbows with any other nation to be first.

I wonder if they’d give off an impression the planet would be proud of? Or would they try and dominate the foreigners like they do to other nations of the world?

I hope they don’t represent me. I don’t want aliens believing we are all like that.
