[QUOTE="Glocktogo, post: 1821675, member: 1132"] I'm glad you're OK with bombing Lybia, propping up dictators when it suits us and fighting 10 year ground wars in Fubaristan (long after our stated goals were accomplished), but I am not. I do not believe in limited warfare. I find it completely immoral and it fuels hatred of the US on a global scale. In the long run it does more harm than good. But hey, what's a few bombs here and there, right? So long as we can have cheap oil and reality programs on TV, it's all good, right? We've been fighting Iran since WWII and historically, they have every right to be upset with the US. The US overthrew their democratically elected government in 1953 and installed a dictator. The current Islamic regime is a direct result of US intervention on behalf of Great Britain. Iran was never a threat to the US, but now they are. We reap what we sew and we've sewn a hell of a lot of death and destruction in the world. Narrow minded world views like "kill em all and let God sort em out" do not work anymore. I have zero problems with defending our country against all enemies. Sadly, the enemies we've allowed to control our roughshod foreign affairs are far more dangerous to the republic than some stone age troglodyte hammering out a homemade AK in a cave halfway across the world. :( [/QUOTE]
