“Since when do you need a diplomatic clearance to wage war?”

The UN Charter. All of our NATO allies in Europe are signatories. As well as our SEATO allies in Asia and the Pacific.

Do you prefer having American men and women paying a price as “policemen of the world”?

We should applaud other nations taking on some of the burden—and the expenses to our taxes.

First of all, thanks for your explanation.

Second, I am against having the US get involved in the Libya conflict because I do not want our men and women to be policemen of the world, especially in this case. (We had the moral authority to take out Q several decades ago, and we let it go.)
