OK, leave out the whole WMD thing, when was having over 90 attempts to shoot down US jets, attempted assassination of a former President, being a co-conspirator in the first WTC bombing not a threat to our national security? By all other standards, any one of those would be considered an act of war.
What do you reckon we’d do if foreign military jets entered our airspace? Sit here and look dumb? How close would we let them come before we took action?
Okay. Our jets were over there to protect our ability to purchase oil from the region. Right? Do other countries send their fighters over here to protect their ability to purchase wheat?
Maybe you do not think our country can sustain itself without sending troops into over a hundred other countries. Some people happen to think we are stronger, and smarter, than that.
