Should The United States Invade Central and South America

Postby Redsection » Thu Nov 19, 2015 11:21 am

Well the title pretty much explains this thread,Should the United States invade those down south to us through combat or diplomacy. I personally think it would be a great idea,through these conquests America would gain control of rich natural resources and this would put an entire end to the immigration problems that come south of the border. Once America establishes power it could start a cartel and para military purge of the former nations,the locals would gain American freedoms and rights. So what do you think nsg ?

Sounds like a good idea but it will have an extremely difficult time to convince most people to support it. Look at Vietnam, we were winning but the American public didn't like it what they saw so we had to pull out.

Actually, after we (apparently) conquer Central and South America, let's just go ahead and annex Canada. And, heck, why stop there? I mean, in the name of unification, freedom, and natural resources...

No, are you joking? We don't need any U.S. Imperialism, especially not de jure, and the populations in most of these countries would immediately revolt.

Plus we'd have to add another few dozen stars to the flag, and that would just be an eyesore.

If the US did this you could say good by to its allies as they would condemn the US for unlawful invasions plus most of the US citizens would state to hate the government even more probably to the point it overthrows the current administration and install a new one to fix the shit storm that the old one caused so in one simply word NO NO NO NO

The central and South American countries are weak in military,locals and natives would gain better freedoms than what they currently have and they would be led by a government that isn't so heavily corrupt.

Right, because the people there don't already have a lot of freedom and have absolutely no experiences of what happens with American-backed regimes.

We don't need the new Operation Condor. Or the new President Huerta. Or the new Augusto Pinochet.

And they will all turn around and say "fuck you"

If you honestly think any of them would go with annexation peacefully, you are out of your mind.

And if you think the US could just invade all of them that say no, conquer and hold them and stay stable, then you are also out of your mind.

I doubt the US could even afford to keep up the invasions/occupations.

A lot of the fighting would be reminiscent of Vietnam, you know, one of the wars that the US lost.
