Because when the Iranian extremists overthrew the Shah we didn't tell the refugees from the US embassy to GTFO and leave them to die on the streets of Tehran. We gave them shelter, aliases, and smuggled them safely home.
Because when you asked for help, we signed up for the Gulf War to chase Saddam out of Kuwait.
Because when planes were crashing into buildings on 9/11 and you closed your airspace we opened up our airports and homes to give you safe harbour.
Because when you asked us to participate in attacking Al Qaida and overthrowing the Taliban we signed up without hesitation, and shed our blood in Afghanistan right along side you.
Because that's what allies do.
And you still ask why?
