Thank you for your service and your family's. Whatever disagreements I have with Trump, they are not mainly in foreign policy. To me, the question of whether Iraq had "weapons of mass destruction" was not primarily relevant.

I didn't want to go in the first time (Kuwait NEVER accepted an offer of alliance, and they weren't any better than Iraq). I did think we had the option to go in after Iraq broke the terms of peace, but it turned into nation-building, and that at best costs money and lives, and is likely to fall apart as soon as you stop spending money and lives. It also had NOTHING to do with 9/11. And don't get me started on Kosovo.

Cruz would not be an interventionist or a nation builder. Neither would Trump. Neither has the stench of Realpolitik that emanates from Rubio and John Ellis Bush (it's in his genes).

Bush the elder learned nothing from the mess the Balfour agreement caused in the 1930s.

History rhymes, unfortunately.

I have met kuwaitis and they were to a man very thankful for our intervention
