Atlantis vs PEACE; A Different View
Tohru
Hello America. None of you will know who I am, as I am from Japan, but I need to tell you my views of current events.
Obviously, you know of the war between Romania and Indonesia. I'd like to first state I don't condone either of them. However the US response, is...well rather odd.
I've been reading your articles and most people are saying that the invasion of Mexico is because of Indonesia's conquest, saying that if Indonesia is going to invade nations, that the US will conquer its allies.
Now this makes almost zero sense. It makes as much sense as a person who hates George Bush going and kicking Tony Blair in the face.
Over in Japan, we're pretty neutral. Most don't really get this idea. Awhile ago with the Brazil/Argentina war, we decided to stay out of it. And what was the response? A horde of Argentinians coming and freeing Korea. Granted, Korea should have been freed, but we were discussing the possibilities on how to go about this when suddenly we get a huge Atlantis force intervening; just for being PEACE. We were targeted once again a month or so later...for being PEACE.
My point here is that just because a nation is part of an alliance doesn't mean that nation supports every action of other alliance nations.
Indonesia is a war mongering nation, yes; so the US idea is "Hey, lets be one too!!!"
Are you seeing the illogical reasoning here?
Of course I'm not saying that Mexico isn't supporting Indonesia, I'm not sure if they are.
But just like I'm not sure, I doubt that you are.
In closing, I just wish for more understanding; the mindless following of Atlantis or PEACE needs to stop. Neither side is always right. Romania is imperialist, so is Indonesia. Where both of them got the idea they're not, only Haruhi knows.
I hope all of you got my point here; if this appears to be incoherent or such, I apologize.
Good luck to you all,
Ki o tsukete.

Good article. There is some sense in this. The Far East War is stealing a lot of headlines, and the US needs to carefully calibrate its position in response to this.
To address your main concerns, the reasons why the US invaded Mexico need to be explained. After the Feb. 25th congressional elections, Mexico found itself the victim of a foreign (i.e. Polish) take-over. It was decided by the US that it was dangerous to have a weak, vulnerable state on our southern border. The war is being continued in order to maintain our military strength and preparedness, but at this point I would even question the merits of this, considering that we have run ourselves out of iron.
Many Americans are opposed to a long-term annexation of Mexico: it's impractical and doesn't really give us anything of value.
@Citizen Dru: It seems that I should have bought a Spanish Iron company, and not a Q1 American food company.
I am for permanment annexation of mexico. It gives us oil and many other resources we can use. Also there are hardly any mexicans in mexico, which makes keeping the terrotories a breeze.
Until the eMexicans get their rl Mexican friends on, boosting the population to lead wars. It happened with Hungary. It's just a matter of time until it happens in Mexico. The question is: will we be prepared?
The US would obviously love to attack Indonesia directly, but that can't happen. Also, Mexico could become a bargaining chip for ATLANTIS. It surely is a gesture to show our support for our allies. Also, no one wants their enemy next door. Like in RL when the US supported an attempt to over throw Soviet aligned Cuba. Also, war seems to be following the path of least resistance.
LOL
I was in the Korean War.
don't fool yourself, how is Mexico a threat? check the battles log 😃
I can tell you that the Hungarian baby-boom was a direct result of the Romanian annexation.
Imagine the RL media "USA annexed Mexico"...wtf? Carramba!
@Tohru: I was surprised when a red that eUS "helping its allies by attacking eMexico", but it didn't take long to realize that its just a slogan, and has nothing to do with the situation.
@Ryan_5
then it is us who will knock your door first.
like we did to romania.

ok first of all, Japan, you need to join eUSA in an alliance. we love you, you love us, lets be together 😃
also, we are taking tons of pressure off of Romania by attacking mexico so Hungary must intervene. we are helping to the tune of over 400000 damage that this war could be putting on eRomania.
my point however is, join us Japan. do you think eIndo is going to completely surround you and then just leave you alone?
Well. Yes.
