Its time for US to evolve into the Obamanation!

As he went through one of his epic speeches, I heard the line "We do not look at what you can destroy, but what you can create." This line resonated to me simply because it was funny on how simple it was but yet it was true. We should not look at what other countries can destroy, but what they can create is a good point, the moral outcome for war is usually attempting to gain additional peace. When we try to ally with other counties, we might look at what they can destroy, but unless it is a wartime, we mostly look at what the country can create. If the country is very destructive and very ill-equipped with building, then the odds of being in the alliance is very low.

This comment applies to everyday life as we see at least something about the war in iraq and how destructive it is. So when we look at iraq now and see its potential, it is a lot less likly to be one of our allies. Especially now that we are at war with them. But there is always a chance for a country to regain their grounds, look at Germany. Germany suffered from a great depression where bread cost 1 billion German Marks, they went to war with us too, but still fifty years later we are allies with them. And that is because they have put more production to builing instead of demolition.
