    Wow, people actually think that France and UK and whoever is in line are doing the right thing.

    Why don't you tell us whose side you're on and how you want them to win?

    Even if it means tyranny will rule the day?
    There, but for the grace of God, goes John Bradford

    My aim, then, was to whip the rebels, to humble their pride, to follow them to their inmost recesses, and make them fear and dread us. Fear is the beginning of wisdom.

    I am tired and sick of war. Its glory is all moonshine. It is only those who have neither fired a shot nor heard the shrieks and groans of the wounded who cry aloud for blood, for vengeance, for desolation.

    I need to read up on the isolationist arguments of the early 20th century before I can say whether I agree with Lefteyenine or not.

    Sure. If that's to happen, let it be.

    Why don't you believe in people's own transformation/evolving/demand ?

    The whole despot grounds are shaking. If it doesn't happen today, it will one day for the "fault line" has already broke out.

    Without the aid of France, the United States would never have won their independence. Nations are not always capable of evolving on their own, outside support can be necessary in some situations.

    If Middle East had no oil or other resources the giant ones wouldn't drool over, I could indeed be convinced of the good intentions you are advocating on behalf of them.

    Sorry like your history apparently taught one, my history taught me that if France and UK walk into a bar, it's never safe there. UN/NATo or whatever, they are all failed organizations not to lack that warm feeling of helping humanity while they are commonly put into action justified so but rather defending or taking proactive measures for the giant one's needs & wants.

    I wonder how history would write it had Srebrenitsa been a little Middle East well of black gold in the middle of Europe.

    So, thanks but no thanks. West does not step in where actual benefits do not exist.
