   I would have to say Israel/Palestine, too - a major concern in this part of the world.
   
   I hope that there is a solution.

            So, according to you the answer is in the following
            
            USA alone has got the maximum number of prisons and prisoners in the world.
            
            In USA alone, maximum number of rapes take place per day (almost 2000 rapes per day).
            
            USA alone, has got the maximum number of registered cases of Depression, Hypertension, Obesity, Breast Cancer, Aids ....... (a long list of diseases) despite the fact that they are leading a top notch facilitated life.
            
            In 2009, from USA alone, the credit crunch started and ate the whole world, imagine their auditors did not knew about what's happening in their own sleeves  .
            
            USA alone, is under the debt of 7.0 Trillion Dollars bought most of it from Rothchilds (they are Jews not Muslims  ).
            
            USA alone, has deposited the maximum number of soldiers in different territories of the world, just for killing and butchering innocents in order to fulfull their SADIST desires.
            
            Danmark and Greenland alone, has got the maximum number of suicide cases despite the fact, these are the safest places and considered as heavens on earth.
            
            EUROPE and USA alone, have got the maximum number of old age houses, where the open minded Atheists and Zionists dump their innocent and loving parents single-handedly. 
            
            UK alone, awarded the honor of SIR to Salman Rushdi for his book Satanic Verses in which he merely used slang language and abused Christianity, Islam and the Prophets.

                                    Not sure where you got your information on that - Russia and Eastern Europe have by far the highest rates. Greenland was, until recently, a Danish dependency, so figures for it are usually incorporated within the figures for Denmark.

                                          It is getting a little tasty in this part of the world - Russia, the EU, and the US are all 'Playing the Diplomacy Game' in the Balkans.

                                                      It is still happening - Russia and the US are vying for dominance, and this part of the world is a new pseudo-battleground. It is now an economic struggle, rather than ideological, but the strategic location of Greece and the Balkans makes the area a prime location to set up a 'Sphere of Influence.'

                                    Aristotle and Plato were very much influenced by the Ancient Egyptian Pagan beliefs and regarded matter as absolute which is wrong. If any Sufi was involved in such an ideology then he had nothing to do with Islam. If any philosopher disregard Allah-God and praises matter then this type of philosophy is totally forbiden.

                        Of my 5 aunts and 3 uncles, all but 1 lived to be elderly; and none died in a nursing home.  My father didn't live to be elderly, and my mother (who had a heart attack that led to over a year of being bedridden) was taken care of at home, by family; with the help of nurses, therapists, and others coming to the house.  She eventually had to lose both lower legs, and when she developed gangrene she was returned to her own home, with hospice care as well as family care, to die.  In the US the aim is generally to keep elderly people in their own homes, or at least with family members if at all possible.  Sometimes someone needs 24-hour nursing/medical care - and, yes, some are in nursing homes.  I have friends who have had their parents live with them.  One put a whole top on her single-story house in order to give her mother an apartment.  Another blocked off her beautiful living room in order to give her mother a first-floor bedroom.  There are luxury "assisted living" facilities, where people can remain as independent as they want but can have nursing help if they need it.  Of course, many, many, elderly Americans are perfectly capable of living as they always have, in their own home and often driving their late-model sedans.   There are also programs where outside help is sent in to elderly people who don't have family, in order to keep those people in their own homes as well.
                        
                        I don't know what on Earth kind of care your elderly people are getting, but here's a bunch of links to programs aimed at providing high-quality care for American elderly people who need it.  Why don't you take a look at a few of them.

                        It is found that the family in Greece still plays a very significant role in protecting the poor elderly people but during the period 1974-1999 the percentage of elderly living with their children in Greece reduced substantialy from 55 per cent to about 32 per cent.
                        
                        So, watch it, the dark cloudes of Freemasonry and ISMs are coming swiftly for this area of life in Greece.

   Every country is the most problematic for the world.  Some can just do way more damage than others.  Sudan for instance can kill off an entire people.  That seems to be the limit of the carnage they can wreak.  The US and Russia can destroy the world.  The US, China, Russia and maybe the EU in concert can knock off other nations if they so choose.
   
   When you're talking government you're talking degrees of damage, not are they going to damage things or not.

      Actually the current financial situation began with Clinton in his final moments as legislature of Senator Phil Graham opened up many of the regulations. Bush just sat quietly by and said nothing as everyone seemed happy. I mean everyone was making money so why should he have stopped it?

   As I said, there are still problems in the world and countries will always vie for whatever advantage they can gain, but the Cold War specifically did in fact end. You say the ideological struggle is not there but that was a fundamental aspect of the Cold War. There will always be troubles in this world, but that particular term just doesn't apply.

   It still does, TK - it is a continuation war, two superpowers seeking political and economic dominance. As I said, it never stopped, just moved into a different sphere.
   
   The US is still trying its 'Policy of Containment,' and Russia is using energy to influence others. Same war, different weapons.
   
   The only difference is the EU, which (foolishly, IMO) is attempting to play both sides. Kosovo is an area of concern for those of us who live here.

   There is nothing the US can do to advance peace in the Middle East.  We can enforce a peace, but a peace of the sword is a fragile one.  They'll continue to kill one another until the people on both sides decide they've had enough and get rid of warmongers on both sides.  Until that happens, it's status quo.

    BTW, Bullfighting is illegal in the United States; however, it is practiced as a sport in Mexico and Spain.  Rodeo does not torture animals, there are a whole lot of vocal pro-animal citizens in the US that would not condone it.  Prize bulls that are ridden for 8 seconds in rodeo events are VERY well taken care of.  Probably live better than some people in third world countries with the best food and medical care.

    LiTA ,As usually I don't see anything nonsensical and don't smell any straws in my posts. Best way of dealing with  the straw argument is clarification of position,which in our last debate would be your answering my question and clarifying your point of view which you didn't. More to that- I never misrepresented your position so I didn't even create the straw man argument in the first place and your accusations were based on false understanding of the straw itself. But what I did was making assumption of your idea of secure world with poor China.And I don't see anything wrong in asking the question when assuming opponent's position.

       My last post was not an 'over reaction.' It was simply a statement that the last so-called 'debate' was not a debate at all, but in fact a response by someone who thought(and might still think) she had a creepy poster following her around.
       
       And no, I see no physical resemblance at all to Gala--anyway, there are more than a few portraits and paintings Dali did of her--showing you looked at page 1 of a Google search and do not know what you are talking about.  FYI, this photo of me is a photo ID...kinda severe, I think, but OK...I mean, its a photo ID.  I simply hate photos of myself, and always have, so I'm using this...anyway, who cares? ....and does that freakin' sound like somebody trying to "manipulate men?"  Uh, don't think so, don't care.

I don't know the exact stats but the answer is very clear: America Who is spreading troops to world and why? again answer is still America. Who is spreading new and deadly diseases like Aids swine flue and many others(most probably genetically engineered for the business of American pharmacuitical companies) in the world? America.
    No country even Pakistan has yet try the Atomic bomb on humans but America did it on Japan.
    In near future there would be great part of America in the problems of world. As America is now planning to stay in Pakistan to monitor  Iran and China, this will starts a new series of the deaths of innocent poor humans.
