And i'll say again, Argentina is not a 3rd world country. It's not close. There isn't widespread famine, there aren't terrorist groups in power. Arguably it could be called a second world country,
I think it's, politics are made like we were in Africa or something like that.

and it certainly isn't a great country thanks to North American persecution of the South, but Latin America has come a long way since the Cuban revolution and the Contra affair.
I wouldn't blame the USA, it's all our fault.

: ( sorry
India and China are already there, that's why they have industry and we lost ours. We have commerce, govt, and medical, very little production in North America the past decade, with less every year.

The USSR folded, and British colonies will now do the same. It's designed to collapse. Alex Jones' first film "America, Destroyed By Design" (1998) covers national sovereignty and federal assets being auctioned off to the highest bidder via UNESCO in exchange for cash collateral on (global) national debt(s).

The other day i did some research for school about Germany, i'm surprised you didn't mention it as a superpower, it's the fourth biggest GDP in the world.

thats because GDP doesn't necessarily denote a country as a supper power ;) germanyis prosperous but it doesn' wield a lot of political weight, and it has no nuclear weapons. i think there are some other reasons too but it's 12:40 am right now and i'm too tired to find them XD

Just because someone has nuclear weapons, it makes him a superpower? If it has enough money, it could buy lots of weapons. I just considered that fact.

no it's a combination of all three. the US. has the Second Largest Stockpile of Nuclear Weapons in the world. We're the number one policing power in the world we head the UN security Council and we have the Largest GDP that combination makes us a supper power.

Germany sits on the UN Security council sure, but other than that it carries little political weight. and like i said they have no nukes. France, Poland and all the other countries Hitler fucked over won't let them. and they do have a lot of money. like you said 4th in the world but it still doesn't make them a supper power

its not the fact that the USofA has nuclear wepons that makes it a super power, just a super power that has lots of nukes :)

i do agree that india will soon become a super power, being interdependent and what not, china has also been getting stronger, because it is quite important

imo i think its a good reason that the UN was created, due to the fact of it being just like a forum (well a nice one like this) where we all mostly get along, just like most countries

^ true but the UN is semi-corrupt anyway. different countries try to pass measures but only if its in their countries best interest and the UN has a tendency to repeal alot of their own measures because one country complains. much like here in America :D

oh boy, this should be fun! :D

disclaimer: the following is not representative of the people within said countries, but rather their corrupt leaders which ultimately control the course of the country. :rolleyes:

America = the Whore of Babylon and current scourge of the Earth. Destined to continue its path towards oblivion until it's replaced by the NAU, which will include the puppet countries of Mexico and the British colony called Canada. Granted, the USA basically is the NAU, so the names might not change, but NAFTA will certainly evolve into another corporate superstate just like the European Union (consisting of 27 now defunct nation states) evolved from the EEC (as envisioned by Hitler, the CFR, Bilderberg, Monnet, and their puppet Churchill). :P In other words, any hopes and dreams or beliefs about the land of the free have long since died. Wake uP!

Israel = The modern day moral equivalent of pre-1945 Germany. Zionism is the new Nazism really.. Both movements were/are proponents of maniacal genocide. Israel strictly follows two distinct mottos, which are the guidelines of the ethics and values displayed in their foreign and domestic policy: "wage war by way of deception" & "do unto others what nazi's did unto you". Ultimately, Israel is a vehicle for the Western corporatocracy that consumes Europe, America, and the UN, as is obvious by the current holy-war on terror, as planned by Rockefeller n' Co through PNAC in the 90's.

Britain = the original vehicle for destruction - now defunct.

Russia & China - the coming alliance that is being pulled into war with the West through manipulation of the value of the dollar as well as forced tension (on behalf of the West) against Iran, Pakistan, and/or N. Korea.

Iran = very confused.. Great international policy but not so great domestic policy.. 'Divinely inspired' but having trouble with clarity. Will give rise to the birth of the black banner army of Khorasan, either prophetically or planned.

ok, i'm having too much fun now.. time to stop...

oh yeah: Argentina: not a third world country, unless 90% of the countries in the world are also third world.

DUH DUH DUH DUH KAPPY'S CRAZY.

Of course he is.

Go back to bed.

For one they were his opinions, and don't need sourcing, but i'll give it a shot.

America has been planning to take over the world since after World War II. It was a policy in America, and I don't ever recall it being scrapped. The aims were to control the worlds resources in order to lead the World under America.

http://www.chomsky.info/talks/19850319.htm
http://homepages.nildram.co.uk/~gw/georgekennanpps23.htm

I love this document, because of such brilliant quotes as 'We should cease to talk about vague and..., unreal objectives such as human rights, the raising of the living standards, and democratization. The day is not far off when we are going to have to deal in straight power concepts. The less we are then hampered by idealistic slogans, the better.'

Israel shouldn't exist, it was created on the land of others, who were kicked off the land. Don't need a source for that, read the news. It's also on 'offshore base' of America.

Britain is obvious. It's plans to rule the world died a century ago, now it is essentially like Israel, an American colony. It would have been, but it was deemed more worthy to be a covert colony, Rather than an actual state, so America could infiltrate the European Union covertly. I believe that is in the previous document I provided.

China is taking over from what Russia used to be, the competing super power for Global dominance. Again, I don't need to source that, even mainstream news can tell you that.
