[Extremely Extreme Extremist]

Fair enough, can you give me any scenario(s) where you would approve of such use of American taxpayer dollars and potential lives?

Only if we were attacked through no provocation on our side, then of course we should retaliate.

I'm against nation-building and foreign interventionism.

Fair, though I do t entirely agree. National interests not limited to free trade attainment resources, but one I would support. IE IRAN controlling all Middle East oil, but a questionso if we did attack or did something that was a predicate to be attacked, then your stance would be we should surrender inference is we were in the wrong?
