Appropriate military action by USA

[Geoffrey S]

As has been said, the US as a sovereign nation can do whatever it liked with its armed forces; I'd prefer to see them put to better use though, and deployed more sensibly than has been the case in recent years. I'd prefer to see them used mainly for policing actions rather than as an attacker, but it's probably unrealistic to hope for that too much.

[Kanamori]

That we can do as we please is totally irrelevant to the poll though. The question asks, "What is appropriate?" It is stupid to fight a war on international terrorism alone, and thank God we aren't fighting it alone.
