(3,829 posts)but certainly the US causes more trouble on this earth than any nation.
Of course the US is a powerful nation and the opportunity is there. Unfortunately many people in the US are very full of themselves and have no problem screwing those that they consider inferior.
How often do you hear or see Americans make comments about turning foreign nations to glass, or similar type statements. Most people in this world don't think that way. That view is reflected in Americans' unmatched willingness to murder civilians, as the Gallup poll above indicates.
Recent history, going back decades, proves the terrible war-mongering nature of the US. The last Republican debate was mostly about war, and the leading Democrat also loves war. It is who we are. Most people appear to be fat-dumb-and-happy about this. Those bombs the US delivers are the scary brown people's problem.
