If you could make a weapon that would stop the US military from invading any more countries...(more)->?

...What would you do? Would you publish the details of how to make this weapon to the whole world? In the name of peace?

Update:

P.S, YES THERE IS A WEAPON THAT CAN STOP THE US. IT IS NOT NUCLEAR. IT IS SIMPLE, AND THE TECHNOLOGY WAS DEVELOPED IN THE US. THIS WOULD BE A NEW USE OF EXISTING MATERIALS.

Update 2:

P.S. #2, Yes, this weapon could have the effect of stopping most modern war vehicles, other than missles, rockets and nuclear warships. And the US could use it, too.

    I suppose if every nation had such a weapon then war would become impossible. But the notion seems far-fetched to me.

    And I honestly don't know what I would do if I were in sole possession of such information. It would be a dreadful dilemma.

    A large pin to prick American arrogance would do the job.

    As you can see from other anwers, the US sees itself as saviour of the world. The world, on the other hand, sees it as invader, judge, jury, executioner.

    America lacks accountability and moral judgement, so your weapon would be useless.

    But you can console yourself that American military capaigns are all utlimately unsuccessful. Take Asia - America invaded left right and centre to stop communism. The result: only the countries they left alone avoided communism.

    i wouldnt do it cuzz peace will never happen in this world.. either its war or just plain kids fighting for candy, peace can never end problems.. but the matter of peace is creating more problems and i seriously think that no weapon or any kind of person can stop that from happening

    Just keep in mind that if the U.S. is prevented from ever invading another country, then the entire world would have to defend itself from madmen and dictators. And most of the world is not capable of defending itself.

    And, in the name of accuracy, it is not the U.S. that prevents peace. It is crazy dictators and Islamic extremists.

    Errrrr

    Would this weapon prevent anyone else from invading us?

    Or didnt you get that far in thinking up this stuff?

    Since I've never seen the US just invade another country I doubt if I'd publish it..You just may be wrong.

    Fortunately, no such weapon is possible. So the US will continue to be able to take out the bad guys when it is necessary to do so.

    Sure. But why not make it so no country can invade any other?

    Yes...the weapon would be responsible behavior. Use that and you'll be a welcome member of the civilized world.

    Would it protect us from terrorists or would you prefer to surrender?
