unit 6 - assignment 6

I think that the United States has DEFINITELY don't it's share of getting into other countries affairs. Such as one that we're currently involved in right now, which is the Iraq war. If you can tell me what we're actually fighting, then that would be GREAT. I know that we're trying to end terrorism, but come on now! Obviously we're not doing any good what so ever. Also, they say that we're trying to help them form a government. People are capable of doing things themselves. If enough people want a certain type of government, then they will have a certain type of government. It's SO NOT our business about who's doing what inside their own country on the other side of the world.
When the U.S. interveined with the war on freedom between Cuba and Spain, In a way it was a good thing. It was kinda good because the U.S. helped Cuba gain it's Independence from Spain. Although that was good, part of the peace agreement when the war was over was that the U.S. gained control of certain countries, such as the Philippines, Guam, etc. So all in all, we should have just stayed out of it anyways, because, god, it's all the way over there, you know? I don't understand why the U.S. feels like they have to control and fix and help every other country in the world. next thing you know we'll be in China trying to make their communist government democratic.
