Currently the USA is overtly waging war of varying scope and effectiveness in three countries.
Under the NATO banner the US is assisted by several (not all) of its allies from around the globe.
At what point - 3, 5, 7 wars - do we admit that in actuality this is another World War?
Only this time it looks like a complete role reversal for the USA.

No, it wouldnt. The warmongers kids rarely get drafted, and when they do, they get to learn to fly planes at home safe and sound, while the children of the not wealthy and not powerful get their body parts blown off or come home in body bags, or an emotional wreck.

I know I "should" be all love and light, unicorns and rainbows, but I would like to take the worlds leaders, their rich influential friends and their families, and stick them all on an island and turn them against one another. I think it would be total justice to have them do to each other what they have been doing to the worlds people all these years.

This is not something the US "dreamed-up" on their own...in fact I see a great deal of reluctance.

I agree the "US" did not dream this up on its own. I think the people playing chess in this regions are multinational corporations. What I find it treasonous is that the US government is aiding these multinational corporations in their chess games in the region.

Libya was a set up. I do not for a minute believe the presses version of what happened there. And I believe that the uprisings in the other nations while more "true" in the sense that the people really are rising up, have been instigated, orchestrated. Because we are thinking in terms of national interests, its hard to see why anyone would do this. You are right, there is nothing in this for the US. Why would the US instigate this? We arent. Its being instigated by people loyal to no country, but the various nations in which these people do business and have great political influence are being used to pay the true costs of their manipulations.

These multinationals are the enemies of nations. All nations, actually. All over the world they have been undermining sovereignty, including in Europe. The fact that our politicians are using our tax dollars to assist in their plans, our military to forward their agenda, makes them traitors to the US. Imho.
