    I never argued that they became strong using rightful measures.

    But they did become strong.

      So if you agree that the US obtained its wealth through plundering and imperialism then what the fuck was your original point? I don’t think you have one and you’re trying to debate just to debate.

        My first comment:

        It really does not show the US’s “strength” to brag so much about winning against someone with so much less resources.

        It really does show the US’s strength when no country has nearly the same amount of resources.

        That was my sole point. Noone having nearly as much resources as the US does show the US’s strength.

        It does not matter how they aquired those resources or how strong they could theoretically be.

        My point was simple and clear from the beginning on: USA = strong.
