"As for the idea that we should kill those who would kill us, that is just common sense. "
'We' or kids from Iowa and Wisconsin?
It is logical for me to conclude that Max Boot thinks Wilson's world view is something to be emulated (thus Wilson is a hero of Boot's) just as its logical for you to deny a very simply fact.
You doth protest too much.
We being our country, and its volunteer military.
Even your favorite President used troops to forcefully project American interests abroad.
Wilson's world view and Boot's are considerably different, unless you believe that Wilson's worldview is the same as Reagan's and both Roosevelts' (in which case, the designation is meaningless).
As a matter of fact, the very article you posted to has Boot rejecting much if not most of Wilson's worldview.
Yet you act as if it doesn't. I don't know why you are assuming, on a text based message board, that people cannot read. They can, and they can clearly see that you suffered from very poor reading comprehension on Boot's article, and have refused to back off of it.
