Think of all the good PR we would get with other nations if we pulled out of Iraq and became the country of goodwill? Start premoting peace and equal treatment of others. Help out in Africa, feed the hungry in India, bring oppurtunity and developement (with out bringing in Westernization). Also, remove bigotry and harrassment with in America. Then bring down corrupt corporate leaders sucking the world dry. What would people think of us then?
Are you worried now we will be unprepared from an suprise attack from a foreign country, while we are pussy footing around the country? Its not as if we won't have a military, we'll just be fighting defensive.

First of all, I never said anything about agreeing with being In Iraq. And this is another perfect example of how helping out doesnt work out. Supposedly we are there to liberate the people(at least tahts what we are told), but all i can see is about a thousand US soldiers, dead, and the majority of teh people dont even want us there. Most of the countries of the world thought we acted far too rashly. Etc. I could go on, but this isnt what we are talking about so i wont digress. And I will say this. America, and all other countries as well, are all doing things not because they want to be nice, or help out, but because they have their own political, financial, and militaristic agenda's. No country will give billions of dollars of money to help the needy in some far off african country. They do it because they know the countries will be indebted to them, and to gain their trust, and cooperation. And I will say this. First off i doubt America's attitude will change. Second, if people really want to hate us, they will find a reason to hate us. There is always a reason. And a surprise attack is sorta outta question, since most of the countries that could pull off something like that are supposedly our allies. However, we have to be ready for anything.
