I agree with your premise; however, you are commenting on the forest rather than this tree.
Seems to me we could step back and not try and solve the ills of the world; but I’d start cutting back on foreign aid where it hurts the statists and marxists, rather than this case here where the Egyptian military needs to, and should put down the MB.
There is no way we are going to fix the MB problem in the Arab world. They are all muslims of one flavor or another and there’s a whole lot more of them than there is of us. That’s fine with me. We don’t have the money to properly take care of our own wounded troops so how about we heal our problems at home before we go hunting down some new ones?
