PJB is on record stating his belief that if we had not been interfering in Mideastern affairs to begin with

Isn't he also on the record saying if we had sided with the Nazis, we'd have won the cold war much quicker?

I'm not saying I necessarily agree with Pat, but there's this arrow of causality thingie that people seem to have trouble with. The fact of the matter is that we went to them first before they came to us. Now, if one wants to argue that our reasons for meddling in Mideast affairs is justified, that's one thing, but the fact still remains..

Pat obviously thinks our global police work in the Mideast is unnecessary and unbeneficial.
