I don’t disagree with anything you said.. except my opinion is, because of our power and our morals that puts us in the unique position of being the tiger. But I don’t think we should involve ourselves with every skirmish that doesn’t affect us. But usually, skirmishes ending up affecting us one way or the other.
I believe the ME does affect us, because of Israel.
We don’t do well when we isolate ourselves. Like I said, and I’m sure it’s a quote from someone.. with great power comes great responsibility.

No, we may never change the minds of the tribal mentality and that’s what I was trying to say when I was describing El Cajon. There is now a growing tribal mentality there, it’s inbred in them. I get that.

A major part of the problem is the gov’t, usually dems, muzzle our military. Can’t do this, can’t do that, Johnson was an absolute nightmare and now we have a couple or three generations that think Communism is cool because they weren’t taught history in school. In the meantime the world is on fire. We can’t sit by.
IIRC it was here on one of the Q threads.
