You must not have met the average Alaskan. We are all sitting on stockpiles of armaments waiting for the shit to hit the fan. I'm completely serious.
You cannot invade Alaska. There will be a rifle behind every bank of snow.
Americans get taken advantage of because they are stupid and lazy. And no, I'm not talking about the terrorists, I'm talking about our own government going on profiteering ventures abroad, creating a global policy that has turned the worlds largest organized religion against our entire nation. Were it not for our quest of global domination we could be reinvesting in our nations infrastructure to secure our economic viability in the future. We could be spending the money used to pay our mercenary army on actually educating our young people and producing the next generation of innovators and entrepreneurs. Instead we are dumbing down society, producing a flock of sheeple that don't care that the govt. uses "terrorist attacks" to strip us of our rights.
Meanwhile, the average joe either has no power to influence his "representatives" or doesn't give a shit. I hope that America gets attacked so many times by "terrorists" that whenever a politician even suggests we meddle in another nations affairs, he is tarred and feathered. Unfortunately, as I said before, Americans are so dumb and lazy, they allow the opposite to happen. We need more troops! We need to stop the terrorists in THEIR country before they get here! Guess what, when WE are in THEIR country, WE are the terrorists. We play semantics so that we're always the good guys, but guess what, if any other country treated the US like we treat Iraq/Afghanistan, I'd be setting roadside bombs blowing motherfuckers up.
