There was no way the US was going to stay out of this no matter how much I'm sure Obama hates violence/war. Our NATO and UN allies are all contributing, and seem more interested to stop the violence in Libya more than the US because of the close proximity to their countries. Can you even imagine if France, Britain, + other European countries AND CANADA sending military aid, while the US sat idly by? There was no way that the US not helping in this cause if we wanted to keep good relations with our allies.

I'm sure you have plenty of credible well documented evidence to back this up.

I'm sure he's aware of the past, I think he's referring to the modern day allies that we have... It's much different now then it was in 1939.

I was thinking more recent.

Afghan War. Iraq War. Early parts of the Bosnian Intervention/War. Falklands War... those were the recent conflicts that had certain NATO members and other allies that were unwilling to participate.

Riiight. As much as you would like to believe that, I think a lot of people know better than to believe what BHO says.

This will probably play out much like the NATO intervention in Kosovo. Lots of initial air strikes, followed by the insertion of ground combat elements.

They put it on the bn website for a week. They already ****ed it up, that's where we got the info from. Lol I guess I don't need to spread it anymore than it has. End point, they don't need to be sending us right back out months after we just got back.

Lots of animals kill there own children, its called infanticide. Only humans and chimps have war. But I get what you were saying and I agree. Soft power is what is sounds like. Only hard power is truly effective and if you don't use it when your vital interests are compromised your national security policy becomes worthless.

Hypothetical situation here. Lets say I shoot you in the head, steal all your ****, and **** your wife. By your rationale that is acceptable. Another ignorant ******** gone...not a great loss to the world.

Another trait that us humans have is sentience, or self awareness. It is what lets us improve ourselves generation after generation. Without that we would all be an ignorant bug-eating primates much like you. Have a nice day!!

Soooo history repeats itself, Roman Empire fell after 500-600 years. I wonder if the United States can write it's own instead of cycling through?

man, its like contagious, everyone in the arab world is revolting or something.

Whatever happen to all the assassins the CIA had, surely they didn't all decide to call it quits and lead a life non-badass wholesomeness. One bullet, no one takes credit, shows over, everyone goes home in time for tea and crackers.
