Because it shows what you actually care about. Not justice, just teenage rebellion.

You could have gone to Canada. But you just went back, not only to America, but to FLORIDA.

That's a nice thing to say, thanks.

Also also Hawk: hates America so much that he came back.

Perhaps OH was a patriot; he came back but then a combination of inner-city teaching and MB membership turned him against his own country.

Seems reasonable. OH definitely wouldn't hate Islam like he does if he wasn't affected by 9/11.

Maybe America is ****ing evil and I resent having been born here.

A football loving Florida redneck? I'll bet you cried when that second tower went down.

Nah I think it's just a more modern version of good old fashioned imperialism/colonialism. I.E. Leveraging your position as a lender to exploit debtor nations for natural resources.

The US debt they own theoretically is designed as a similar form of leverage over us. Of course they aren't really worried about actually collecting a lump sum from us.

They buy up US currency because they want leverage and to a large extent they also depend on us economically. As 2008 showed. Of course that relationship goes both ways.

But yeah, as it stands China couldn't do **** if we said we're not going to pay. Our military dwarfs theirs. Investing in Africa doesn't change that. But of course they aren't even in it to make a quick buck anyway. They're playing to win.

China sucks the dingdong. God Bless the USA.

lol

If you think America could win a war with China ha ha ha

America got its pretentious behemoth ass whupped by The Taliban. America can manufacture nothing. America cannot mobilize **** and Americans would not be willing to sacrifice **** to win a war. China would rape this ****hole and the world would laugh and cheer them on.

Actually having access to natural resources and being able to block American access makes a huge difference.
