When are the Neo-Cons going to call for us to invade?
Oh, wait...no oil.
So you would suggest that we invade a country when there is absolutely nothing in it for us?
^^^ Spoken like a true Right-Winger.
Well its not as though the US gives a large mouse's behind about human rights.
The US? Why, was it the US who committed this atrocity? I don't think so. So what are you talking about? We should invade and risk our own soldiers for another country's human rights? Again, I don't think so. We have to stop doing this and hurting ourselves unless there is something in it for us. We NEED to be a little more selfish I think.
I don't disagree. I did not say that at all. Nor did Synthaolic say "we [should] invade a country when there is absolutely nothing in it for us". You read these incorrect statements into what was actually written.
We give lip service to being committed to human rights but the truth is, if they don't have oil, we turn our backs.
IMO, we need to cut our mostly useless military and put our people to work rebuilding our own nation.
