I think I’m starting to see the split on this issue. Most of those agreeing with Greene about non-involvement in foreign wars are her age or younger and didn’t live through or remember the nation’s shame Jimmy Carter put us through mishandling the Iran hostage crisis.
Those of us who do know we’re finishing a war they started 46 years ago. We also know not to leave a loaded weapon on a high shelf in a room where a crazed child is stacking stuff up to reach it, fixated on killing the kid next door and you after that.
Your entire post is 100% spot-on, and is what I've been saying to my two sons REPEATEDLY since the weekend.
I remember 1979 like it was yesterday, and I still remember watching Ronald Reagan getting sworn in on TV and not a minute later, the tv station (ABC) switched to showing the airplane carrying the American hostages taking off from Tehran after 444 days of captivity and torture.
I also remember the Beirut Barraks bombing, the 1996 Khobar Towers bombing, and more attacks on our troops across the middle east by Iranian operatives than I care to type.
Those who forget history OR REFUSE TO LEARN IT LIKE MTG AND HER ILK, are destined to repeat it.
I don't want war either, no one in their right mind does. When we have the opportunity to take out someone who's been waging war AGAINST US for 46 years, we damn' well take it!
President Trump made the tough decision we elected him to do, and I'm damn' proud he put America's safety first.
As for MTG, the woman's a loon. Her posts on X yesterday showed who she really is, and she's not to be trusted by President Trump. I hope he knows that.
