I do not want to divide us by perceived notions but want to discuss the actual interventionist attitudes that our government has.
Do we have the right to tell sovereign nations what to do and do we have the right to enforce our viewpoint?
Nice OP END
I personally think the US should only use force against a foreign nation in the case of
being attacked by another military, in the case of genocide or if our allies are getting the tar kicked out of them in a potentially cascading fashion.
Eisenhower's warning is the way of the land now, I believe it is extremely damaging to our freedom and economy. Business interests who serve to gain from war can now
be rewarded for attacks made on the USA, this thought in all its dimensions is the worst
and most dangerous aspect IMO. To trust that large sums of money will not drive entities to drum up more business is insanity, just look at the corruption, it is not a stretch... Peoples inherent trust in Media, Government and Private good is the key, they use, will use
