And how would that start a war if Trinidad asked them for help, but they have gotten no response. Have you read the countless articles of the things that go on in Trinidad?
That's not the point.. Trinidad's problems aren't our problems. We're still in Iraq cause we dismantled their government.. now it's our responsiblity to try to restore order. I think it's nice that you want to help other countries out.. but there are just far too many countries out there with problems not to mention that we have plenty of problems of our own that need dealing with.

well, i think it should make a good start. and it wasn't our problem to dismantle their government in the first place.

I agree.. I don't think we should have either.. but we did now and there's no turning back. Plus, like I said before.. the defense for dismantling their government was originally to take out a potential threat.

yes a potential, but doesn't mean he was. i'm not going to sit here and do nothing...i am still going to write to him...

he should help

He's never even going to read it. But you have fun, as long as you realise that helping will probably only hurt the US. If you are going to write anybody write Blair. Its his country's ex-colony.

Trinidad is a small country near Venezeula and Tobago. Murder and kidnapping is a big issue there, and the government isn't doing too much. i was thinking of writing to Bush to see if he could do anything about what is going on in Trinidad. please go through a few of the links, and tell of what you think.
Their has been 200 killings and kidnappings THIS YEAR alone.

please speak your mind.....

To be honest there are bigger problems in other countries that need to be sorted out prior. The problems in Trinidad are pretty minor... in comparrison.

Also, how would he help? Invade them, throw money at them.. there is really very little he can do to stop people getting murdered and kidnapped.

none of you guys get it do you?

hmm what's there to get? ...you are asking if Bush (leader of your country) should "help" (strange American definition of "help"😉 Trinidad & Tobago (country the US has no business in whatsoever)

Wait, wait, wait...who died and made the US the World Police? ....I remember that there'S soething called seperated countries...you can't just go in to a country that doesan't want yur "help" ...although you did a lot in the last few years.....

600 people get murdered every year in Canada and were called a peaceful nation.

CANADA IS HUGE! IT IS ONE OF THE LARGEST COUNTRIES IT CAN FEND FOR ITSELF!
AND TRINIDAD DOES WANT THE US'S HELP! IT WAS IN THEIR NEWSPAPER AND ONLINE!

Canada also has a small population in ratio to land size....

i know that, but it's population is a lot greater than Trinidad, so your country losing 600 people is a lot different if Trinidad was to lose 600 people.

Very true. However the Toronto metropolitan area has over 6 million people. Thats is as large as the metropolitan areas in the US.
