Please don’t confuse my desire to get out as a way to help the people there. I am talking about unconditional pulling out. The political machine and the media here in the US have been saying the same thing on both sides of the aisle that we need to be there to do something. And nothing we’ve done so far has changed the thought process of the groups that are a threat to us.

In straight talk, we never should have been there to begin with. We don’t need their oil, we don’t need their dope, they don’t produce anything else we don’t already have or they have because we gave it to them. They don’t do anything we ask and lie about the issues they say they will do. Many are building a nuclear program to attack their neighbors and we are not only condoning it, we are aiding it. We are supporting the transfer of millions of people from the middle east taking jobs away from US citizens, and watching our economy going down with the hidden syphoning of worth and business.

I could do this all day. But the main fact still is we have no business getting involved with a civil war. They need to fix their problems themselves or destroy each other. And it will effect us not one bit. Cause we can’t do a thing about it and we’ve been trying for about 80 years at the least. Pavlov would be disappointed. But his dogs would understand more than the greedy, self centered people running our country. (And trying to run everyone elses)

Helping the people there is an outcome of the US doing the correct thing. That would be the nation-building that's been ignored in our own nation instead of trying to run the rest of the world. Those countries had leaders with a strong hand for a reason. That's what it takes to run a nation of headstrong advocates of their own agenda.

The US served the world best when we were a shining example of things they might want to achieve within their own nation. I doubt that anyone under age 40 or so even remembers the ideals the US used to aspire to.
