Westside, respect.

Good point, granted, at that time, Hitler's army had invaded quite a few countries and was getting a bit "out of hand" shall we say? I am sure there were vested interests behind the scenes for us getting involved there also, one of which being that one of Germany's allies attacked us.

But...Iran isn't in the process of invading 10 other countries. The only country I see invading anything these days is mine. If I were Iran, and I had "big brother U.S." telling me, "No you cannot evolve your country on your own, we have to hold your hand and make sure you don't piss on your shoes..." I think I'd tell the U.S. to fuck off aswell. It's degrading...
