NATO AIR said:I think what Feingold is saying is we need to think smarter in how we're dealing with developing nations, as far as what sort of development projects we embark on, what kind of investments we make, etc etc. The Chinese are beating us at our own old game in places in Asia & Africa, and it needs to stop.
This has nothing to do with being more tolerant of Islam or any crap like that...Its all about connecting with what people need, which is mainly EFFECTIVE rule of law that puts food on the table and jobs for them to work. We don't need to mess with their culture necessarily, just help improve their governments and how their governments work for them.
I hear what YOU are saying, not sure at all that is what Feingold is saying. In any case, we have very rocky relations with Latin America as a result of Monroe Doctrine and Roosevelt Corallary. Now we should try the same in Africa and Asia? You think the EU/UN would allow that? :huh:
