I remember during Desert Storm, Carl Levin, US Senator from Michigan and member of the Senate Armed Services Committee, was extremely dovish until a few Scuds hit Israel. Then it was "go get em".

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.

And that's not even counting the billions we spend every year fighting the wars they have us fight for them, via the control they possess over our politicians.

How much did we spend in Iraq, and what did we get for it? One thing for sure we got for it was an Iran that didn't have to worry about Iraq any more.


You're far from done. Countries like Pakistan and Turkey need to be looked at in the future. The Shadow Warriors are willing to protect their interests to the last American. There are plenty of "Keyboard Generals" on this board who will have no problems going along with that plan.

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.

There are wars that are in the national interest and wars that we have no business getting involved in.

It makes me smile and shake my head to read somebody talking about some foreign country America needs to go to war with.

America could go to war against any country you care to mention,...it might even defeat them.

But when it's all said and done America would still have the problems it has.

America doesn't have a foreign problem,...it has a domestic problem.

TRH has never found a war we need to get involved in. Even WWII.

Just as long as we start one with someone who can't hit us in our back yard. The family still wants to go to Longhorn on Saturday nights.

The only wars we need to fight are wars where they want to destroy US.

At least Lucky Lindy didn’t have a history of aggressors to ponder although he should have been able to look at what Germany and Japan were in the process of doing.

What is your excuse? Ask TRH.

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 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.

What a hand wringer. No one is pushing anything. What’s your fear? You're not gonna have to contribute, change your panties.
