I think just our military might and international... presence and influence pretty much makes us the biggest threat to world peace by default. Any ill advised actions from the US can and do have global ramifications. Not that there would be world peace if the US just ceased to exist, or became entirely isolationist. Actually it would more likely be the opposite at this point.

No need to close it. It encourages discussion. Thats a good thing.

This sounds outlandish and insane at first, but the more I think about it, as someone who is about as anti-interventionalist and anti war as they come, and who knows our clandestine empire tactics of "economic hitmen" and CIA supported assassinations/military coups and the like.. It's tough to disagree with him. We're just a lot more subtle about these sort of things. We need Ron Paul :(. Trump is a step in the right direction from the imperialist neocons/neolibs but still far too war mongering. We're sort of a weird duality of an example of freedom and prosperity yet at the same time we're very imperialist and in many ways growing less free from within, as our liberties are slowly and subtly being stripped away. 

Though in all fairness, North Korea would probably be FAR more dangerous if they have more influence/power/population. 

Let's make an exception for ISIS, shall we? Their Paris attack alone killed 130 and injured 368. I must remind you in case you have forgotten that ISIS targeted Paris knowing full well it was a civilian target. My university mourned the death of one of its alumni after the attack as a matter of fact.

This GBU-43 killed 30-something ISIS fighters as far as is currently known and was dropped on a tunnel complex used by ISIS.

The GBU-43 is neither a chemical nor nuclear weapon.

Bravo on sticking up for ISIS by the way. I'm honestly impressed.

North Korea's pretty bad too.

I hope then we can all agree that the U.S should close its military bases, and the American taxpayer can get some nice savings on our tax bills.

Japan and South Korea can defend themselves against North Korea.

Europe can defend itself against Russia.

Israel can work to make peace with their neighbors rather than having bull dog U.S on a leash.

We can maybe keep a large Navy so that nobody messes with our trade routes, but otherwise let everyone else fend for themselves.

And we Americans can be non-interventionist again.

I am not being sarcastic, by the way. I seriously think that the U.S should not be subsidizing the national defense of other countries. They should foot their own bills.

No the Russians have slightly more nuclear weapons than the USA, plus its nearly 2x the size hence your chance of survival in the USA per km^2 is lower than in Russia. Russia has enough firepower to destroy the USA totally (and I assume the reverse is also true, hence the word MAD) so unless your secret is moving to ,for example the wilderness in Canada or the Bralizilian rainforestyou're screwed.

Ahahahaha, wow. I'm from Mexico and the only threat that we represent to the US is that they could lose the amount of cheap labor that no American wants to do. The US would never attack Mexico or Canada. Both Mexico's and Canada's governments are the US lap dogs no matter how much they claim they will protect the interest of their people.

You don't reaize most of the countries don't want the US bases there, so they'll be happy. Its mainly on USA's insistance that such bases exist.

They break international laws by launching drones and killing much more innocents in Pakistan then terrorists. Last I check Pakistan was not a war zone and without a war how can there be casualties of war? Stop making hollow and vain excuses. The USA is just as guilty as Daesh about killing innocents without any regard and is no better than the group in Syria. The big private firms benefit from war and when there isn't one they create one like in Iraq. Funny how you talk about casualties if war but forget that USA caused the war in the first place. These stupid excuses make me wanna puke. At least the terrorists own their killings unlike the USA which lies and lies and lies and talks about the value of human life without having any. The USA has probably killed more innocents then  terrorists anyways and there is no reason for it to be in the middle east yet it is so the excuses become more silly. Also have you ever heard about a terrorist attack in Pakistan? But you hear about it as soon as it happens in France and its talked about for days if not months. That shows how much you value one peoples loves over the other. And I guarantee that no matter how common these attacks become in those nations you'll always hear about them so don't even try to say its due to norm and frequency. Every excuse you make is hollow and there is an easy reply to all of them cause US is not fighting a right and just war for humanity it is fighting a war of profits for its elites

Alrighty then. With my conversations with Europeans online, the sentiment seems more mixed than you're leading on, but if that is the case, win-win.
