we need them more than they need our resources.
we wanted them out of our lives early to manage our resources yet we cannot boost of electricity and water after 46 years.
and you think they'll come and give you democracy? think again. you need to understand how these people operate. they think of themselves 1st. the US has no free gift for anybody. they removed sadam, brought in chaos and took away oil. they went to vietnam to help,when it got tough they abandoned the vietnamese to the communists and genocide. they gave dangerous advice in iraq that lead to the 1991 uprising and consequent genocide. the list can go on.
if they want to help, why didn't they help somalia,(they left when they saw it was not easy, but they could have done better)liberia(they left nigeria to do the job and came when the job was done to claim taylor), rwanda(they showed a shameful selfishness in this case) so why should they "help" us?
true they can help, they know it better, but they'll rather come for our oil. that is a fact. believe me
cheers
