To quote something taken directly off your profile: “But when the blast of war blows in our ears, then imitate the action of the tiger: Stiffen the sinews, summon up the blood.” —Henry V(3.1)”

Right. Because fighting a war over lost lands and literally established two nations' identity is so much like fighting a war 10,000 miles away to 'spread democracy'....

The world is a much smaller place now. 10K miles now is far closer than 10K miles in Jefferson’s time.
