what is your point? i mean if anyone tries to break the law in the US we will uphold the law... but arguing we have to settle every dispute or evil in the world because it will eventually threaten us seems like a stretch..
we need to keep out of wars... i went to an exhibit at the american history museum a few years back , i think it might be a permanent exhibit, and the US is more often at war than not..over and over again war war war.... the same arguments people raise today about the Islamists are the arguments people made about the Communists.... aren't we a little embarassed about the things we did during the Cold War? Deposing democratically elected rulers like Arbenz in Guatemala because he wanted to distribute land among his people? so instead we put up a right wing dictator?? like that 50 examples!
Do you ever even think about the fact that if we'd just have left Saddam in his own world to do his business ISIS would have no presence in Irak today??? Do you ever think that it was precisely our butting in what was not our business and had nothing to do with 9-11 that created this debacle? Do you ever think about all the talk there was about how we needed to go to war against Bashir Al Assad in Syria and how if we'd done that ISIS would control not just parts of Syria but all of Syria? Do you ever wonder that the same people who wanted to go to war in Irak , in Syria, now want war against ISIS and want to help Al Assad? Do you think its a coincidence they ALWAYS want war no matter what? Do you ever wonder what all that money we spend on the war machine could do for, you know, the American people?
War with very very few exceptions leads to nothing more than more war.. more violence... it never solves anything....the Islamists want nothing more than for us to get involved.... we should stop obsessing and talking about ISIS...so they beheaded two Americans? so what? I'm sure we got many of them bombing the crap out of them...what do we expect? to bomb the crap out of them and they are not going to retaliate???
Think about the consequences before getting involved in these conflicts overseas and don't be so darn pessimistic and SCARED.. its somebody who is afraid who jumps into every conflict because of what might happen... oh my god if we don't kill them all they will do this and that.. we must act we must go to war....
NO. Caution. Prudence. There are times to act but in the main our foreign policy should seek to avoid foreign entanglements and no, terrorism, does not "change everything" as we are permanently being told...9-11 did not change everything.. I think we can all admit that now... nearly 13 years later... that doesn't mean there aren't times we must engage, etc.. but this constant beating war drum with our media brainwashing us into thinking if we don't do this its the end.. give me a break.
