I can tell you from traveling the world that when you say that somebody from a different country isn't any different then we are in America . . . . . . . . . . . . . . Well your couldn't be more wrong. The only thing that tie us together is our human emotions and the ease which we choose evil over good. That doesn't mean that we can't live in peace with some countries that just means we will never be able to achieve peace with all. People from another country don't under stand you just like you can never understand why your Parents act like they do because behind every country just like every generation there are things you can never explain to someone. Just like you can never walk in the shoes of a war vet no matter how much halo you've played or how many times you have watched Saving Private Ryan or Platoon. IT JUST DOSN'T TRANSLATE!!!!!
Well being from a different country doesn't translate either. You can never walk in their shoes or them, yours. Their point of view will always be different then yours. If your parents where born in another country they will never look at the United States the way you do. Some will love it more and appreciate it more then you ever will. If you marry someone outside the US that difference in upbringing will always be there just like if a super wealthy person marries a poor person. That wedge is always there, it's the bridgeless gap. Just ask Dianna. Now the reason I'm writing this is not to discourage you from marrying a foreigner or visiting other countries it's just to give you a real perspective on the world as a whole.
When you watch the news and you say I don't understand what's wrong with that country or why would they let that happen? You couldn't tell a purer truth. Your right, you don't understand nor will you ever. Just like they don't understand why we do the things we do. Do you know what the Kuwaitis said about Bush after we rescued them from Iraq. First of all they were very grateful which is normal but then they said That President Bush is Crazy. meaning that is was inconceivable that someone would take on Iraq. Now I know that might sound like a normal reaction but if the Brits were in trouble and we came and rescued them they would probable say what in the bloody hell took you so long, even after we explained the ocean between us thing.
There are just some things we are never meant to understand and that's good for a lot of reasons. It would be a lot easier for a one world order to take over if everybody had the same perspective on life. Me personally I'm American and I think for the foreseeable future I will stay that way besides it's not working out for Europe right now. I guess what this all boils down too in the end is the world is a very different and diverse place so the next time you say you don't under stand why Putin is taking over another country stop being a puppet to the orchestrated government controlled news and realize weather you agree with him or not, he's doing the exact same thing we would do if the United States split up. Oh wait it already did . . . . it was called the civil war. Is the United States still split up? How did that happen? can we really judge someone that we really don't understand for doing the same exact thing we would do. Well according to the news and the President . . . I guess we can.
