The" White Mans Burden "

Well in away i think we are still living the white mans burden because the united states are still at war with Iraq. In the war is nonsense and its not for the USA use its for the president use. Then again i think we are not living the white mans burden because where not fighting for what we believe to bring peace we fighting for what we want and another country like the Europeans did in Africa. Yes i do believe the analysis of the poems because that is true that you should fight for what you believe in and bring peace instead of war in it should not be no royality but a leader i do believe that part. To me the white mans burden means honor in belief towards your country your fighting for your rights to bring peace towards your country today. Yes i do believe that the U.S is imperialistic today because we have power over Iraq.
