If you 're a child and believe in Santa-Claus, Halloween-pumpkins, US-fights-for-freedom and other childish tales... Ok, you can stop here. Good night, go on sleeping

But if you're an adult of normal intelligence, you know that US fights for wealths and dominance, as every other power. So you must understand that if US wants Germany, France, Italy, Spain, etc... to take a bigger share of fighting, they have to give them a bigger share of the wealths and power as well. That's all the problem.

We're not colonial troops, we're not your Gurkhas. We'll never fight only to make you, the US and their usual club of anglo-saxon junior business -partners (UK, Canada, Australia) wealthier and wealthier
