Why do the least intelligent nutters costantly insult the intelligence of others? Is it a defense mechanism?
It's easy to turn it into some sort of personal attack fest. I try to stay away from it but don't always manage to.
Look, if we were going to send fighter jets into another country to disperse a crowd, we could expect the same treatment when we have protests outside of embassies and consulates here...we're not able to simply say, "Well, we can do it but you can't."
We could, of course, because we have such a large, well-trained, military but the idea that anytime we don't like what is going on in another country, we send in that military is brain dead thinking which leads to people like these two clowns in Boston, guys trying to light their shoes on fire to blow up planes, the under ware bomber...
There are times when our vital interests are threatened and we must act; then there are times when clearly those interests are not on the table.
Lybia was one of those times. Anyone who says it is, well, they are simply unsophisticated about the realities of the world. Sorry.
