As far as I know, we only invaded Germany who had declared war on us first. The other countries we fought in were our allies and we were liberating them from a foreign German occupation. Same with many countries in the Pacific.

Germany and Japan were the aggressors in WWII just as we have been the aggressor in Iraq, Afghanistan, Liberia and Haiti.

Now if another country was to invade any of those countries to fight against US troops and expell us from the country, they would be playing the roll we did in WWII.

No....what would be "sad indeed" was if those were my only 2 choices.

Since when did we invade Liberia and Haiti?

Iraq is arguable but Afghanistan and the Taliban declared war when they gave asylum to Osama after 2001.

Liberia in 2003 and Haiti in 2004. In both cases, the Marines invaded to remove the leader of the country. In the case of Haiti, Aristide was a democratically elected president.

Alex, bear with me...I might be getting old! I enjoyed/was amazed
reading that list of predictions; what I don't get is where it came
from or what the list is in ref' to or from?

Is this the Taliban predicting stuff or some modern day Russian
soothsayer or, some political/terror list. Amazing fooking list of crazy
predictions, but I don't get the connection. Help an elder out!

Geez...I wonder what I was doing 4-5 years ago. I concede with that information. For some reason that did not stick in my mind; however, it does fit your definition and makes your point.
