Quote:Lower than shipping guns to Iran in violation of an arms embargo in order to fund a terrorist organization you know is violating human rights and which US Congress has specifically forbidden you from funding any further? Lower than starting a 9 year, $2.4 trillion war costing the lives of 4,400+ US soldiers on the basis of blatantly false and fabricated evidence? Or lower than invading countries with democratically elected governments in order to install puppet regimes so US corporate interests are protected?

 

And those are just the ones we know about.

 

I'm not defending any of that, I fully believe the US foreign policy of the last few decades is flawed starting with messing with Iran in the 60's and on. It's been on bluster after another trying to fix this mess we made over there. That's why you'll see over time I'm a subscriber of Ron Paul's type of non-interventionism. I'd even border on calling myself an isolationist, except I understand and support private industries need to compete on the global market place.
