Thanks for that, GZ. Your comments reminded me of statements made by then U.S. Secretary of State Colin Powell. This is from a response he made in 2002 when asked how he felt representing a country often perceived as "the Satan of contemporary politics":

"[F]ar from being the Great Satan, I would say that we are the Great Protector. We have sent men and women from the armed forces of the United States to other parts of the world throughout the past century to put down oppression. We defeated Fascism. We defeated Communism. We saved Europe in World War I and World War II. We were willing to do it, glad to do it. We went to Korea. We went to Vietnam. All in the interest of preserving the rights of people.

And when all those conflicts were over, what did we do? Did we stay and conquer? Did we say, 'Okay, we defeated Germany. Now Germany belongs to us? We defeated Japan, so Japan belongs to us'? No. What did we do? We built them up. We gave them democratic systems which they have embraced totally to their soul. And did we ask for any land? No, the only land we ever asked for was enough land to bury our dead. And that is the kind of nation we are."

Thank you for posting that statement, I do not think the youth of today realize that we are doing good for people around the world.

I'm hoping it will be within the next ten years that I'll be able to head over there. But who knows? We never know what a day may bring.
