I would definitely have stayed out of the Balkans. I think Clinton committed a war crime in Kosovo.

I would stay out of any war we do not have the resources to win, or where we cannot achieve our desired post-war objctives (such as invading mainland China).

I would stay out of any war that does not direcly aim to protect the security of the US.

I would support any war effort that would weaken or destroy Islamic terrorism, which means I MOST DEFINITELY support our efforts in Iraq and Afghanistan.

I would support a war against any Islamic government (provided, again, that we can win and manage the post war environment). I don't know enough about our military to know whether we could successfully invade Iran. If we could, I would be for it. But based on what I have read, I don't believe we could succeed there.
