The rest of the world is going to have to save us

[catmandu57]

As long as these insane bastards have control we and every living thing on this planet are in danger. It's clear, crystal clear that they don't give a good goddamn what anyone thinks, they mean to have their war in all probability nuclear so that they can pump radioactive gas until it finally runs out.

The UN, someone, anyone, is going to have to save us from ourselves, they're using the same game plan to go to war with Iran as they did last time.

There are other nations on this planet, they know what the hell is going on, I don't think they can start any thing even with their proxy army without us suffering serious consequences.

Iran is not going to roll over, they probably have sleeper cells here ready to wake up the minute someone gets froggy. These idiots are laboring under the assumption that war is quick and easy, even after witnessing the debacle that Iraq has been.

I don't care anymore, I'd rather feel the weight of sanctions, than to glow orange until I croak, damn you chimp damn your black soul to hell.

1. Nobody is coming and nobody can stop the insane chimp

We're on our own, and we're all sitting here picking lint out of our navels while Bushie and Crashcart and Rumsferatu blow up the planet and steal our children's future. :shrug:

It's up to us.

3. We've been pretty damn ineffectual

I hope people see how serious this situation is, I've lost all hope in the American people as long as they can have tv and the latest celeb scandal they're happy, that's why it's going to have to come from outside.

2. They may try to save themselves. That may help us.

But they're not coming to save us. We have to do that.

4. With what?

Which military was going to come and take out our regime? Germany? Britian? France? Spain? Portugal? Any other dead empire who is protected by our military freeing them to use tax money on social programs?

So would America enforce UN sanctions on itself? Cause there ain't nobody else to enforce them.

5. Economic sanctions to start

If the world would just call a short timeout sure it hurt, but it's better than going up in cinders. someone needs to bloody our nose, we've been the play ground bully long enough.
we are capable of doing so much good, and we have in the past, I want to get us back to that world.

[sui generis]

6. actually I think we're going to see a slow build

of the EU against us, but this sandbox is closed. If you throw sand here you're bound to hit more than just the person you're aiming at. Unfortunately this sandbox has two sumo wrestlers in it and a bunch of people with advanced osteoporosis trying to avoid getting mortally wounded either way.

The world knows that in the long term we will self-correct; but in this case self-correcting is probably more akin to building Rome than the figuratively overnight process that got us here.
