[QUOTE="Glocktogo, post: 2086610, member: 1132"] If you mean, what's in it for us, yes. If you mean, what can we reasonable expect to accomplish, no. If one closely examines America's historical relationships with other regimes and groups of people, we have a tendency to pick who we help based on ideology rather than human rights. We also have a tendency to leave fighting factions we initially support before the deed is seen through to completion. While we're saluting the flag and waxing poetic on baseball and apple pie, others around the world are looking at piles of dirty American laundry and leftover party trash. The don't "hate us for our freedom", they hate us for our "do as I say, not as I do" tendencies. As an American, I expect better of my country. I find it unacceptable to do what's in our best interests when it happens to also be morally and ethically wrong. Sure, trot out the "isolationist" attack when no one said to shut in like hermits. Apparently being non-isolationist means you have to attack everyone who looks sideways at us before they can say "boo"? :rolleyes2 [/QUOTE]
