Those awful Americans

Johan Norberg with a good point:

After all, who should deal with a war on the Balkans, a nuclear threat in North Korea, or a civil war in Africa? Well, Europeans, Asians and Africans, of course. As long as we don´t, and always call on the American world police to come save us, perhaps we should think again before we say that the Americans have themselves to blame when they are everywhere but home. (#)

The fact is that Europeans by themselves can't deal with the threats of the world. Americans ended World War 1 and 2, the war in former Yugoslavia and the dictator-ship of Saddam, but above all, Americans have made sure that capitalism and freedom prevail in a world filled with socialists and fascists of all origins and religions.

Of course it's not to be expected that those who focus solely on the equality of material wealth understand the concept of freedom, but surrendering to their greed for other peoples fruits of labour and life is not an option. Never!
