Name The Last Nation We Helped In War That Did Not Eventually Backstab Us?
FreeRepublic ^ | 3/7/24 | OneVike

Just a simple question I want to ask.

What was the last country we sent our boys to defend, or supplied with war materials, that did not eventually stab us in the back? To be honest, I cannot think of any nation we defended that has not come back and stabbed us. They either become adversaries against us, or their citizens grow up to hate us.

I ask, because I see so many clamoring for us to get involved in the Ukraine/Russian war. Me? I say let them decimate each other.

We gain nothing helping either side. It is time we spend our resourses and efforts on defending our own borders.

Inquiring minds want to know.

I stated in the next comment we got in after they attacked us. So this makes it different.

We did not get in to help them, it took an attack on us. So technically we went to war to defend ourselves.

However, by doing so we did help all others, all of which eventually turned on us.

The US sailors they killed attacking the USS Liberty would not agree.

You know, I would say you are close to being right, which I would add them in With South Korea.

Which we know they need us, because of their threats with their own enemies of China and North Korea.

Yet, for all the help we gave and still do give, I cannot think of times they backstabbed us.

Other than joining the left to destroy our industry by pushing Climate Change lies.

It's a bit shocking Ray Davies wrote the lyrics in 1979...and they are VERY relevant today.

The whole “Low Budget” album is fantastic.

The UK? Surely you jest. The UK and Australian intelligence services were eyeballs deep in the Russia gate scam and interfering in our election. The UK never does a single thing for America solely because it’s good for America. Everything they do ostensibly for us, it’s some policy goal for their own selves.

Wow, I am shocked that youtube even allows it to exist on their platform still.

Thanks, I am going to share it around.

You are right, it is so relevant now it’s scary.

~~Rather, it’s more like 1938 (Sudetenland, Austria) or ‘39 (Poland) - with Putin playing the role of Hitler.~~~

No one studies Sudetenland. Crickets

That’s all correct. Only after FDR waited until that happened.
