I agree with jibber. However, you're still trying to put the blame on someone or something else by focusing on what your own government didn't do. That doesn't help. One question I think should be noticed: "Does your country rely on another to help with a disaster?" If not, then perhaps your country is doing fine overall. If so, then maybe you should contact your representative, senator, or someone with enough guts to listen to one citizen and act. Citizens need to stop complaining about another country or their own. About how they are doing a shitty job. Their job is to just overall to protect and serve you. If they aren't doing that, then get involved. Get off your ass and make an influence on others. The kind of action I am refering to is the kind that will significantly change the current state of a nation, not just a few hudred, gradual steps that will take a Presidents whole time in office to complete.
So, if someone who is against the current foreign policy, they need to get together with some political giants and find an effective way to convince the man in office to change it with a compromise. Where each side wins.
I don't even see why we have "sides". No wonder America is doing it's best. We are so divided that I wouldn't be surprised if civil war broke out if more people were far more aggressive. This country is divided because people treat everything like a competitive game.
