She’s right but the world aint perfect. When all the options are bad you make lemonade.
She’s no where close to be as wrong as Obama. For you to say that shows just how confused you are.
Seems like she’s working her way to Reagan’s position, where he had and funded allies—but also regularly spoke out on human rights.
She’s more than half-right. But Obama’s all wrong.
Washington as President, Jefferson as Ambassador and John Adams as President did the same thing — buy off the bad guys in the Barbary Coast. It’s both moral and ethical, up to a point. It depends on what happens with the bad guys.
As Jefferson and John Jay came to see — it doesn’t always work, it makes the situation worse even. The buy-off of the bad guys was too much to pay for the new national US Government, and it only encouraged other bad guys to get into the business of going after US shipping. When Jefferson became President he immediately set out forming up a Navy and Marines sufficient to strike back at the bad guys. That worked, but not perfectly. Without wiping out the bastard culture of Islam, new bad guys always pop up in its soil, and old ones continue in treachery.
It’s immoral and unethical to deal which such people, once their type is known. The rule is thus — Muslim, sort of, and can be paid off in a modest way, and the action doesn’t encourage others in that local Muslim courage to become bad guys — ethical and moral. Muslim, and they don’t stop being bad guys, or they encourage others to be so, and/or they demand more and more — overwhelm them with awesome force, and kill as many as possible — sparing none in their company.
With Mubarak? An iffy call. Palin might be 100% right.
This is NOT an easy, pat thing to deal with.
Like I said, Obama’s all wrong.
