cookie, the reason no one gave a damn about Kosovo (except a few Republicans in congress) was the fact that it was supported by our allies and was much more easily justifiable than our current one. Also, I take issue with your connection of this with the WTC - despite Bush's wishes, they really aren't connected at all.

Bander, "The Ugly American" is by far one of the best books on what is wrong with American Foreign Policy. Despite the fact it was written about 40 years ago, it still applies every bit as much today.

Every American should make it a priority to read this book. Our own Special Forces Green Berets consider it so important that many of them carry it with them on every mission they make to a 3rd world country.

My aunt gave me a book called "The Eagle's Shadow: Why America Fascinates and Infuriates the World" by Mark Hertsgaard which sounds interesting.  Haven't had time to read it and won't for a while but basically the author went to a variety of countries and interviewed people on their opinion of America and as the title shows there were aspects of admiration but also uneasiness.

God damn you people have ADD? Pearl Harbour is not a war, it was part of a war. The list put the the start of WWII as a seperate war from say Normandy. They are part of the same war. They also say we had three consecutive wars in a row with Columbia, three wars in three years with the same country, no. More like 1 war for three years, but the list lists it as three wars. So we did not have 215 wars/military actions as the lists suggests.

Bondo, I read that book recently and highly recommend it. Once you get past his journalistic style of writing, you get an eye-opening account of America's place in the world and why we are seen in the light that we are.

About the different aggressive wars the US has participated in, there are some good examples in the movie Bowling for Columbine. I really like that movie.

michael moore gives detailed information about former us wars and their aggressive actions around the world. i can recommend "bowling for columbine", but also "stupid white men".

for anyone interested in what hans blix has to say about the american actions:
