I would agree that the US has been using it's power to control the world. This goes against freedom. And I think the US has used all types of force to include killing others to achieve this goal.

Also Miriam Webster defines it as "the systematic use of terror especially as a means of coercion" Either works fine. See https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Banana_republic#The_original_banana_republic and https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/United_States_involvement_in_the_Mexican_Revolution#U.S._military_decorations for specific details of where I'm coming from on that claim. We've been actively engaged in similar operations for longer and there are also more recent events, these were just the ones I could remember off the top of my head. I mean you do know that we trained Osama Bin Laden ourselves, and we also aided directly in the overthrow of the lawful government of Iran. These are documented facts that our own government admits to. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Operation_Cyclone On Mon, Jun 24, 2013 at 10:09 PM, Daniel C. <dcrooks...@gmail.com> wrote: > On Mon, Jun 24, 2013 at 11:58 PM, S.
