The “Bushies” (WTF? Are you serious?) conducted military operations in Kuwait and Iraq. In both cases there was greater participation from international forces that there was in the Korean War. Both of them demonstrated their abilities in diplomacy, military strategy and foreign relations. You are waaayyy out of line to think that the Bushes were “no better” than Obama
Both “Bushies” (are you a DU plant? “Bushies”??) had military experience. GHW Bush was the ambassador to China. GW Bush was governor of a large state with international dealings. Obama organized protest marches in Chicago. There is NO comparison.
No strategy to victory?? DUde - we won the Gulf War. We won in Irag. Saddam Hussein is dead.
No response to Iran?? DUde - The Bushes cooperated with Israel and Iran had no nuclear weapons during their terms. Obama doesn’t cooperate with Israel.
And what replaced him?
The bipartisan (Republican and Democrat)
foreign policy of the United States since World War 2 involves policing the world under international law with international forces as you note.
The words from the two major parties may be different, but the policy is the same, policing with no military victory.
That’s how we got Korea, Vietnam, Iraq and Afghanistan.
I’m a real conservative who takes Douglas MacArthur’s words spoken 63 years ago this month seriously.
“In war there is no substitute for victory”
The politicians-internationalist visionaries
etc. have taken war in a different direction since WW II
When America fights a war it should fight to win.
The Taliban came from Pakistan created by the Pakistani intelligence service, the ISI. Instead of sitting in bunkers and shooting out of them or making little pin prick attacks in Afghanistan or pin prick drone strikes in Pakistan, you take care of Pakistan.
During the Korean War when the Chicoms came in they wouldn’t let MacArthur fight the Communists in China to defeat them like Japan was in WW II.
