Your way of thinking is not how the world works.

My comment was not about thinking.

My comment was about facts!

Your delusional.

The facts are that we've spent trillions and lost thousands and thousands of our sons, fathers, and brothers in wars fighting "gnats" over the last fifty-plus years.

-gnat Korea
-gnat Vietnam
-gnat Granada
-gnat Iraq
-gnat Aftganastain
-gnat Syria
-and now: gnat Ukraine

I'm sure I may have missed a few. Other than the giant country of Granada, we have absolutely nothing to show, and we lost—and lost big time.

You say I don't know how the world works. Take a look in the mirror, you idiot.

We do have a lot to show for our efforts and our losses. We don't always need to have a 'visible' victory with a victory parade afterwards. The world is in relative peace because of our involvements. It's been about 80 years and we have not had another world war, and many wars have been avoided because our presence is virtually everywhere, and because we have involved ourselves in making wars either short-lived or not even started.

You say I don't know how the world works. Take a look in the mirror, you idiot.

Your post above proved that you have no idea about how the world works. Instead of looking for unquestionable victories, look at the big picture. You are a surface thinker, and if you looked below the surface, you might start to get a better picture. MORON!!!
