It's yet to be beneficial to any countries so far but that's semi-debatable. What's not really debatable is their purpose, which was not to help those countries.

I ignore the second part because there's nothing really virtuous about helping your ally to kill your common enemies.

What about protecting your allies from attack?

And are you so sure that there isn't any semblance of care for other peoples put into what the US does to and for other nations? After all, the country is run by human beings, and human beings are far from heartless.

On another note, can we refrain from taking this debate any farther? I feel that its gone a bit too off topic.

Don't you just hate it when countries just aren't nice. Even worse, when they brag about being nice...when they're not!!


I hope you're not implying I'm oblivious to the realities of the world. If so look at my other posts prease :3

*puts on bane mask* No its like any other country, ran by political leaders who are good at manipulating. And allies should protect themselves. Sign a defense treaty, but Keep your troops on your own lands. If push comes to shove, then deploy them. Otherwise is it for protection, or as a occupation to make sure you do as told? For your own good of course

I mean what would you think if British, German, South Korea, and Japanese bases were all over your home town? Gee my friends! Or are they?

It's better than not helping them but most of the time you help an ally to further your own interests.

Yeah I'm mostly sure. Aside from how it's more or less evidenced by US past actions, politicians first concern isn't ethics and morals when it comes to foreign matters. And like I said I can understand that.

Agreed on the last part. I'd have showed more care if the thread had actual merit though :D

When you're in America, that is not Japan. Where there is no Japan, there is America. In the absence of light there is only darkness. They are the twin peaks of culture, ascending beyond all understanding of common men.
But where's Japan? What is Japan?!

Japan is the manifold, the myriad forms, the countless lands. America is the blob, the endless destiny manifested in red blood. Japan is the Japan and the USA is not the America. While Japan is the white to America's black it is also the modesty to America's raucous roar. The genki to America's gay. In the U there is Jay, the S there is Appa, and in the A there is Needs.

It is very UnAmerican to watch anime. Tell people you watch anime here, and no one will like you (just like me). You're lucky this isn't the 1950's, or else the House of UnAmerican Activities would have paid you a visit!

Thanks, person who gave me this on another site a long time ago, lol.

Because you're never allowed to like something from another country. On top of Japan, you're also not allowed to like anything from Germany, Russia, England, Canada, or any other country that the US was ever enemies with. I'm sure it says so somewhere in your Constitution.

Anime uses Celsius, the one thing we Americans do not understand! We use the much less confusing and easy to spell Fahrenheit! Too watch anime is to betray the use of the Fahrenheit!

I don't like them sexually.

It's hard to not like lolis, their cuteness pander to the same emotions that naturally makes us fathers.

But it's hard to get off to anything that doesn't have any adult women characteristics like large tits, ass, and thighs.
