Old American men slobbering up pablum and encouraging the government to send its young people to war in the Middle East,....for almost two consecutive decades.
No wonder the military can't reach its enlistment quotas these days.
But they're working on it. 16 year olds will soon be allowed to enlist.
Really, Bowsie?? How many times have I said that we should consider ourselves at war with Mexico based on an ongoing invasion of our southern border? But that would actually be in our national interest, so it will never happen.
What cracks me up is the war cries when a muzzie cuts someones head off but not a single word when the cartels line them up on a fence row.
,..ain't no wonder that everybody under age 50 wants to euthanize the whole fuggin' boomer generation. They see people like Stan V as being representative of it.
. . . They seem to believe that if they pull the trigger they’ll all be going to heaven and breaking in 50 virgins or something.
Their reward is a 70 something virgin.

Israel Foreign Policy - "Let's You (USA) and him fight"
Their national anthem should be Onward Christian Soldiers.
So you hate Christians AND Jews ?

20-30% of the world's oil market goes through that Strait.
If, for whatever reason, there be a shooting war occur in the Strait and ships no longer safely passing through the Strait or up to Iran setting of a nuclear weapon in the middle of it as a last gasp middle finger to the world as it goes down rendering the Strait no longer safe to traverse that oil through that Strait could make everyone's life across the globe sporty.
Not saying we should bend over and let Iran take control of the Strait nor saying we should come in with guns ablaze, but what I am saying is this situation is complex and matters need to be thought through. The implications are tremendous. That's all.

So you hate Christians A AND Jews ?
Uh no.
He is saying (correctly) unaware Christians are being used.
Damn we need a sarcasm emoji

[quote=The_Real_Hawkeye]Neo-isolationist: Someone who doesn't think it helpful for America to scour the Middle East seeking wars we could possibly trigger under the direction, and for the benefit, of Israel.
TRH won't reads this, but he is Stupid for blaming so-called Neo-conservatives for seeking wars when strength is needed to prevent wars from getting bigger.
There are wars that are in the national interest and wars that we have no business getting involved in.
TRH has never found a war we need to get involved in. Even WWII.
Really, Bowsie?? How many times have I said that we should consider ourselves at war with Mexico based on an ongoing invasion of our southern border? But that would actually be in our national interest, so it will never happen.
No Mexican army has invaded our border. That would be a invasion and a real war.
The illegal invasion is not in our national interest and Trump is doing something about that. Mexico is learning that it is not in their national interest either. Numbers are finally beginning to move down. Trump is even getting a small start on the Wall.

“In Trump We Trust.” Right????
SOMEBODY please tell TRH that Netanyahu NEVER said "Once we squeeze all we can out of the United States, it can dry up and blow away."
I heard that the British war ship that prevented the first Iranian hijacking attempt of a tanker was an hour away from the latest hijacking.
UK needs to get more of their Navy involved if they want to keep Iran from hijacking their ships.
These things can be prevented as the UK has demonstrated. Just gotta be where the action is, not an hour away.
How about a couple more war ships in the area, like a ship carrying choppers or Harriers?. An hour away by boat would be just a few minutes away by air.
I would assume they have more than one war ship...
Say our government took a leadership role in developing clean energy as it did for nukes or space travel, and made the tech affordable to the world. How long would these middle eastern countries have any ability to be a nuisance?
The last time the west made them irrelevant and was freed having to battle them it was the Industrial Revolution.

Neo-isolationist - Somebody who sees no virtue in opposing evil unless he gets something material out of it.
I do believe that's how Hitler got ownership of Europe.
No, one who knows that if you replace one "evil" in the Middle East, you're liable to get a worse evil.
Correct, how is all the overthrows of secular dictators working out??
Some countries and cultures need dictators to keep order. It's not right for all, and democracy isn't the answer for all or even many. The neocons see these dictators as "morality" targets in their propaganda blitzes to rally public support for spending our national treasure and spilling our national treasure on the battlefields to further their interests.
