Hleping liberty in Iran helps our own critical situation
Please! It distracts from the gravity of our own situation as much as any of the crises “not going to waste”....invluding the thrillah matter......I see no Constitutional mandate for spreading democracy......yet I see endless actions/legislation that is blatantly unconstitutional on a daily basis.
There is certainly a constitutional mandate for defending this nation from foreign enemies and Iran is certainly that.
As citizens and as a nation, helping the Iranian people overthrow those enemies saves us our own blood, expense and trouble and as I said, reveals the Obama administration and its policies for the sham, disgrace, and wholly anti-Americans antics they are...and thus helps us all the more right here.
I am willing to work both...both here and abroad as the situation and my conscience dictates...as is each of our right. We each have to pick the battles we fight...and I choose this (among several others that are critical like Cap and Trade, Health Care Reform, Immigration, 2nd Amendment, etc.) to be one of mine.
That's because there IS no such mandate.
However, if I may ask you a question:
Would you agree with the fundamental idea that it would be to America's benefit -- since Iran will most likely be developing atomic weapons sometime in the near future -- to have a western "friendly" government in Iran?
Thank you in advance for your answer.
