Have we forgotten that Al Queda, Iraq, Iranian mullahs, and the PLO have publicly declared war on the US?
I don't forget anything, unfortunately. I also recall that the US invested in all of these political entities/regimes in some fashion over the years enabling them to become what they are now. And given cause and effect, what is your point then now? Maybe that we were misguided from the get go?
Only hardcore leftists or harder core libertarians would get flustered over a foreign policy that hopes to eradicate central asia of these threats to the western world.
Nice try. I'm not flustered. There are no seals on my eyes. So, given your failure to pigeon hole me "politically," what's your next best shot? HINT: I'm not partial to terrorism of any stripe.
