I’m good with us doing this. It’s actually in our national interest.

I don’t support arming and escalating in the Ukraine.

To clarify, I mean not allowing piracy. Not invasions.

I never understood how it’s in our “national interest” to protect commercial shipping when the ships are: (1) built by foreign shipbuilders in foreign countries, (2) owned by foreign companies, (3) operated under foreign flags, and (4) operating outside any U.S. jurisdiction while (5) transporting cargo between two foreign ports.

You can’t possibly make the case that the U.S. has a compelling national interest at stake here.

WE HAVE OUR OWN OIL!
But hey, more need to die for “the cause”.
