BigC Gets A Wrong Number

BigC(RAP);

"Terrorism in Iraq would be NIL if the US had not invaded it!"

The 300,00 victims of Saddam discovered in mass graves after his downfall would disagree with you if they could.

The number of wars in 1914 and 1939 was one each?

The Chinese would disagree with you. They had been fighting the Japanese since l931 and each other before that.           

The Spainish were still fighting their civil war in l939.

Albania was conquered in l939.

Ghandi was fighting a peaceful war against British Imperialism in l939.

Jews and Arabs were sniping away at each other in l939.

The Balkans had just wrapped a fews wars by l914.

War was brewing in Ireland in l914.

Those are just a few of the ongoing conflicts in l914 and 1939.

I have lost count of all the big and small wars the British and European powers had been fighting for decades before and after.

You can't find the HSR for 2006? Just click Human Security Report and scroll down. The 2006 report is an update of the original 2005 report which stated the dramatic decline in wars since the end of the Cold War.

Don't be afraid to read it. It is good news.                        

Britain and other European powers made a mess of the world  when they ran the show.  Hundreds of  colonial wars,  regional wars and two world wars are a disgrace.                                                                       

 US leadership in world affairs since the end of British and European butchery has been far less bloody.
