    We can keep fighting evil men on behalf of ungrateful bastards until we are all broke and have nothing to eat with except good intentions. Or we can realize that all of our attempts at turning a desert into glass will just spawn more evil men.

    Let the middle east live under hell until the culture changes against religious fundamentalism. Geo-political white knights are just as dumb as real life white knights.

    The problem is, we are fighting an ideology that has as its goals the destruction of Israel and the West and the complete domination of the world through Islam. The war will not stay there. It will come here. Whereas I believe we should stay out of the Syria mess, and should have stayed out of the Libya affair, this will concern us. We are the enemies as much as Israel is.
    Blessed be the LORD my strength, which teacheth my hands to war, and my fingers to fight: Psalm 144:1

    In peace there's nothing so becomes a man
    As modest stillness and humility:
    But when the blast of war blows in our ears,
    Then imitate the action of the tiger;
    -Henry V by William Shakespeare

    I can make it my life mission to take over Somalia and become a warlord. But that doesn't mean anyone in Somalia will ever hear or see me. Also, that is not their goal anyway. They want to first destroy the kingdoms around them, which is a joke. If you think Saudi Arabia or Iran is going to follow anything resembling rules of engagement...
