As far as I can see are the USA one of the very few western countries that never expanded their territory.........
I might be wrong on that though.... Hawaii?
It's strange though that anti-americans speak about the 'expansionistic' americans.......... strange....Formerly known as "CyberShy"

Actually the Lousiana purchase would be worth 30-40 trillion dollars today, so we didn't pay them.
Louisiana was a burden on the French at that point, and they were happy to be rid of it and have the cash for their European warmongering.
And it's only worth "30-40 trillion dollars today" (I suspect you pulled that out of your ass) because of what the U.S. did to build it up.Tutto nel mondo è burla

Iraq and DPRK are not threats to World Peace. Only someone with the ability to either have troops everywhere around the world, or the ability to strike anywhere in the world, is a threat to Wolrd Peace. What the hell can Iraq do to get Brazil in anything?
The SU was a threat to World peace, the Germans and Japanese were a threat to World peace (hence the World War). but Iraq and DPR? they are at best, threats to regional stability. Nothing more.
The US is not a threat to World peace- no huge wars will start due to this admin. It is a threat to the regional stability of a few places though. How manya rmed conflicts are going on right now? World peace is just a nice monicker for NO Great Power conflicts.If you don't like reality, change it! me

If "peace" means unconditional rendition to terrorists without fighting, then I agree. USA is the biggest threat to world peace.

Freedom, unfortunately, is paid for with blood. If despots would not aspire to control the masses for their own ends, then I daresay that the US would not have been involved in as many conflicts. The US has a unique combination of ability and will to step in where someone must.
To allow petty dictators to become powerful and dangerous leaders is the threat to world peace, not the country that is willing to take up arms to preseve it.
The question is "threat to world peace"...not "threat to use force to maintain world peace" There is a difference and if you don't recognize it, then find a library and go to the history section."I am sick and tired of people who say that if you debate and you disagree with this administration somehow you're not patriotic. We should stand up and say we are Americans and we have a right to debate and disagree with any administration." - Hillary Clinton, 2003
