Whom should US invade next

"Average?"

You can find stupid people in any country; it's quite an international phenomenon.
 
I'd say stupidity is a universal problem. What was it Einstien said? "Two things in this universe are limitless, the Universe and human ignorance, and I am not sure about the first."
 
Hehehe! That's one funny interview...and scary too. I bet you could easily find that kind of morons all over the globe, no point in starting a "your-nation-is-dumber-than-mine" discussion. But hey,we could make our own poll. How do You guys think, what country should be turned into a major glass crater? I vote for Middle East, because it rhymes with terrorist!...wha? not a country?..Mmkaaayy...How 'bout Bagdad?
 
No, we should not have. It would have aggrevated the USSR, and no one wanted a Vietnam so close to the real one.

But I think we should have considered keeping a war with Iran option open instead of invading Iraq. But that is the past and mere speculation.


And no, there are NOT more moronic people in America then in Europe, let alone Asia, Africa and Australia. Our 'idiots' may preach about ID, but yours try to teach Marx. Frankly, Of Pandas and People has not been the basis of 100 million deaths and literally dozens of failed economies.
 
19/20. Amusing, though the Chicago question was the only one I got wrong, as 2 of the three questions were chopped off on the side. Well, that and the fact that the results are fundamentally biased, but whatever. You know, because emigrating from the US will help prevent the US from...I dont know...becoming worse and all.

You have an impressive understanding of the world for an American. It is likely that you feel intellectually isolated in your home country, and often have to hide your opinions from others. Deep down, you realise that your country is the single biggest threat to world peace in modern times, but you have not yet summoned up the courage to emigrate.
 
Apparently I cheated by taking the test 50 times as all Americans are too stupid to possibly have scored 20/20.

...that "what is the correct spelling of USA" question nearly had me stumped, though. This almost could have been a Mensa test!

How can you be so quotable? I'm thoroughly impressed.

Why invade? I say bolster the roster at home by finally adding Guam and Puerto Rico to the "states" of the United States. Then we can load 'em with all sorts of weapons and conquer all the little islands around 'em based on the fact that there all close enough to shoot at us thus provoking war.

Or we can just annex them for the baseball teams.
 
As an american soldier. say the US should "bring democracy to" New Zeeland next. I've been saying for quite a while now that i'm tired of myself and my fellow soldiers being deployed to 3rd world shitholes... it's time we brought democracy to someplace that's already civilised and perhaps more to the point, where the people are far less likely to shoot at us as we waste taxpayer dollars flying helicopters out to great fishing spots. Or whore houses.. you know.. whatevers handy.

If that guy had been here asking those questions in the streets he would've been laughed at. There's no way he could find more than one "american". So no, it's not an "international phenomenon" at that level.

The difference being we don't spontaneously invade other countries and let morons who by all means can't EVER have graduated from a normal school make our decisions. I'm not saying our politicians are smart, but they DO know where Iran is.

"We should invade France, because they weren't our allies". I wonder how they would answer to "We should reinstate negro slavery, because you're all poor and a burden to society anyway". Kind of the same comment.
 
The problem is that Iran will kick the ass of the American army.

That's probably the most ignorant thing I've ever heard.

As for why we should have gone into Iran in 1979. When the Islamists took over and seized the US embassy, that was the first "terror" attack as we know it today. Instead of waiting around for over a year, and trying pathetic rescue attempts which ended up in deaths by incompetence, we should have invaded. I'm pretty sure seizing an embassy and holding hostage its occupants is a clear act of war. By stamping out that "terrorist" act, it would have sent a loud and clear message that those tactics would not work. Instead, we allowed them to see that "oh...if we use these tactics, the US won't do anything about it!" What do you think they're going to do in the future? The same thing. Iran was the begining, and it should be the end of the huge problems in the Middle East today.

This state run by Islamists, who openly profess to hating the West, to starting up their Nuclear programs, and who are willing to sell their weapons secrets to the highest bidder, amongst a plethora of other things, clearly poses the greatest threat to regional and international security. North Korea doesn't even come close. The British already know this, and have been recently trying to publically prove the Iranian presence in Iraq, in order to start the domestic campaign of winning over support for action in Iran. The fact is that Iranian soldiers have been aiding the Iraqi insurgency and have been carrying out attacks against Coalition forces. We find men all the time who are wearing nothing but their underwear, standing next to an Iranian military uniform. When asked about it, they say "oh its not mine." Sure. OK.

We will, no doubt, have a much harder time if action was taken in Iran than in Iraq. Iran's technology is far superior, and they're military much more advanced than Iraq. They still have working AA guns positioned everywhere. States like Russia and Taiwan still trade arms with them. It won't be a walk in the park to Tehran like it was to Baghdad. But guess what....if we go into Iran, we'll actually fight a war. Not a backyard scuffle like in Iraq. The US, and the HUGE coalition that would without a doubt come with them (I can't see anything but multilateral participation through the UN on this one, especially now with the nuclear posturing on the part of Iran) will wage a real, total war. None of this 50,000 troops and lots of technology shit that Rumsfeld fucked up on for Iraq. No. Minimum 500,000 troops in the coalition. Total war must be waged. Stamp out any resistance. That way, there can be no insurgency. If we actually fought a real war in Iraq, there would be no insurgency now. Send a crapload of troops in now, and you won't have the problems like that later on down the road. The reason people seem to underestimate the American military is because we haven't actually fought a war since World War II. Korea, Vietnam, Iraq both times, all the little conflicts in between. Ask a soldier, especially from Vietnam, and they'll say "they wouldn't let us fight." Hell, in Vietnam, every single little military action had to be approved by LBJ! "Uhh...President Johnson, this is Charlie company. Can we attack this enemy position across the road?" "Umm.....lemme check. I'll get back to you." That's pretty much how it went. The difference will be that a real war will be fought in Iran, the groundwork is already being laid. Real, total war is going to be waged. And it's going to be hell. War is hell, as the saying goes, and it has to be hell. Because if it wasn't, people would fight them all the time. Iran needs to realize that they can no longer afford to counter the world powers.

I got 20/20 - which is pretty funny, since all the questions were about America. Goes to show.

Also, their darn comparison doesn't work. What's the point of a site trying to show intellectual differences between Americans and the rest of the world (if any), when there are no damn statistics?
