So we should be more concerned about the disenfranchisement of people across the globe, possibly using military force to protect them...

but don't seem to care about our own disenfranchisement in the USA, our own votes being canceled out by illegals etc that don't need voter ids.

We are concerned for their freedoms but sit idly by while our own rights are eroding away?

A classic example of a false dichotomy.

i didnt mention using military force, but the point is that Putins logic and path have a history of developing in to some of Europe's biggest wars. NOW is the time to interven to prevent it from becoming anything more than it is. With a global economy this interdependent, its possible if Europe is on board.
