For against the rules it is not, to speak wisdom and truth.
To seek wisdom and guidence, you should explore the past.
From this, and only this, can you embrace the truth.
Without the blanket of heavenly protection provided by America,
Europe would have had to maintain massive armies during the cold war.
America has also brought back to life European countries from the very ash of Germany inflicted extinction.
If the bounty of American military prescense had not shielded Europe from possible agression, the expenditure of maintaining a sizable military force would have prevented the rapid economic expansion and growth that had put both the EU and the Euro in a position of strength.
It is amazing though, that such countries seek not to support their very saviors, and thus instead claim that they stand alone.
For those seeking wisdom, open your ears and widen your eyes.
WWI
WWII
Vietnam (France was there first)
Cold War
Also, the last time Spain and the US fought. There was a total of 1 US military death.
Wisdom comes from facts. Folly comes from prideful lies. Do not fall into Temptation, and instead walk towards the light.
See the light.

There is about as much wisdom in your post as their is in the mind of a four month year old child. Someone who claims wisdom would not speak facts in twisted manners as you have, no seek to try and vomit a ton of what appears to be horribly subjective american propaganda, for a reason I cannot ascertain.
EDIT: As you have just very clearly demonstrated, history can be very much misinterpreted and told. So, you have....disproven bill's point, when he intended to use it to make his point.
Stupid americans...the most annoying posters on the forums. Though if memory serves...arnt you english? Or asian...im not sure..but I think you do live in england, if you are who I think you are.
lol...I say walk towards the light...ignore pai mei....

Bill is that *points to quote* not far out of place and control?
