Why when the US picks on others and it seems to be ok.

It's somewhat funny that most of the whiners live in countries who would be speaking German, Japanese,etc if the Americans had not come to their aid in WW2.

Have you ever heard of the "Brisbane Line" the "Battle of Brisbane" and the "Battle of Manners Street". What about New Zealand's nuclear-free zone where the US tried to force New Zealand to accept ships that were either nuclear powered or capable of firing nuclear weapons into it sovereign territory and because NZ stood up for itself your country pulled out of the ANZUS treaty? The only reason the US forces come to Australia during WW2 was because you had your butts kicked in the Philippines, Macarthur wanted to let teh Japanese have everything north of Brisbane and Perth if they made landfall. The idea of capitulation is not helpful at all when its not your country you are giving up to the enemy.

When a country is being victimized, who is first on the list to help ?

What exactly did you do for Rwanda when the crap was hitting the fan? What exactly did you do for the people who died during the first 2 years of WW2? What about Tibet what have you done for it and what are you doing for it since China annexed it? What exactly are you doing for the Tatars in Crimea (now annexed by Russia) who are being victimised simply because they are Tatar and not ethnic Russians? What did the US do for East Timor in 1975 when Indonesia invaded? What did the US do for Vietnam when Ho Chi Min asked for help?

When America is hit by storms, etc, which other countries have sent help ?

Australian and New Zealand firefighters go to places like California every year and help the local fire fighters with the firestorms they get there. How many of your guys come when we had Cyclone Tracy? None. How many of your guys come when we had Cyclones in Queensland over the last 10 years? None. How many of your guys come here and help us fight our summer fire storms? 3 and they fly the cranes we hire from you, other than that the answer is none.
Lets move further with this. When the boxing day tsunami hit how come a country (the USA) with 300+ million people only sent $350 Million and very few people to help with the clean up when countries likeAustralia with 23 million people sent hundreds of people and over $300 million. Why did the US only start with $35 million and eventually give the rest under pressure from other countries.

Your memory is shorter than the list you speak of.
