I would disagree that we fight wars to expand democratic governance. It's a nice myth though.

If it was said we fought wars for corporations, oil rights, global hegemony and Zionism perhaps there would be less willing participation?

Heck, it's coded in federal law we don't do business with counties that participate in genocide. America is at best an amoral entity.

"Hey, a guy on the internet had a different opinion about something. I should tell him he's insane."

I was referring to Iran vs DPRK. They’re both crazy. One just is terrorist crazy.

Shelled brown/yellow people in Native territories, Mexico, Japan, Korea, Nam, ME. Hope I didn’t leave anyone out? Ugly business. Probably woulda came out different they had mirvs. Some chances you just can’t afford to take.

Subscribe to race based politics and believe in the Oppressed vs. Oppressor matrix. Then open up a day care center in Minnesota or a Hospice in California. Pallets full of money will come your way.

Don't give a **** if they are a democracy or not. I do give a **** if said country sponsors terror and has programs to develop nuclear weapons. You're arguing with yourself here.

Trump promises "No boots on the ground." You: "Good."
Trump immediately breaks that promise by deploying ground forces with "limited scope." You: "Also good."

Maybe the real TDS is the blind loyalty that permits Trump and others to say anything, do anything, and get away with everything.

Both can be true. No boots on ground to accomplish objectives is amazing. However if troops on ground is needed to accomplish certain objectives then you need to do what you need to do. Obviously nobody wants another Iraq or Afghanistan and if this becomes a long term thing then yes even Trump will lose support from his most arduous supporters.

What are the “certain objectives”? They keep changing…sometimes hourly.

Knock off the insults. I have zero loyalty to Trump or any of his minions (aside from that required by duty to my oath of office).
