The US will still get much of the blame for it all though. Of course what is interesting is that while England is thinking about sending troops into yet another combat theater, the politicians are cutting troops and military spending. Obama wants to cut military spending as well but step up operations, just like Clinton did. I've been watching Nigeria, which is a major oil exporter to the US. A Christian won what the UN called a fair election but the Muslims in the northern part of the country are going nuts burning churches and murdering people. Not hearing much about that in the news though.

But the advanatge is that no longer can anyone claim that the US is a warmonger. Now Britain will assume the title and all that comes therefrom, including accusations of neo-imperialism.France too, considering their involvement in Libya and the Ivory Coast.Administrator

We tried that once and but for some bad luck we would have won. The question is if we would have absorbed the Canadian states or let them go their own way or even given them back to England.

Can we invade Canada now? It has better weather than some countries the US has invaded. :PSent from my iPhone

Really amusing!

(BUT seriously, when we first moved to Alberta from Ontario, (1970's) there was a vocal Western Separatist movement, We were both concerned enough that if Canada become embroiled in civil war over Western Separatism, we would have fled to USA (less than 100 miles South) and sought political asylum.

We did not forsee a good outcome if red-neck bigoted separatists took over. (my husband was a pasifist due to religious beliefs, I was undecided but did not like the idea of becoming involved in civil war against my neighbors who were ideologically in support of Western Separatism.) When I was griwing up, a militant form of Quebec Sepaeratism casue dmajor problems in Canada.

The attacks against Canada mainly failed due to back luck and a couple of bad leaders. It would have been interesting to see how that played out had the attacks been successful.

I remember those secessionist movements, mainly in Quebec. There are some such movements in the US. Some of the Northeastern States have threatened to secede a few times, but most of the rest are things like Long Island wanting to break away from NYC. Northern California has made noise about splitting from the southern part of the state. I've heard that a few other states have thought about breaking away and not just in the South.
