Pakistan, India, Israel, and North Korea
When NOKO acted up, Trump got them in line.
India is not a state sponsor of terrorism that I am aware of and they are loosely our allies
Israel is absolutely our ally in regards to fighting Islamic terrorism
Pakistan is worth keeping an eye on but it's not my understanding that they are funding Houtis or Hamas or Al Qaeda or the Taliban, etc. Maybe they are and if they are, then they are the enemy and to be fought elsewhere, not here

Thanks for the insight, Senator Graham
Tell me what I said that's false.
NO ONE WILL ADDRESS THE FACTS

In my lifetime, not one single American serviceman has died to protect my right to "speak out against foreign conflict". Not one. Now plenty have died to improve the profit margins of defense contractors. Plenty have died for a stock market in the green. Plenty have died for a booming economy. Plenty have died for a better job market. Plenty have died for my investment portfolio. But in my lifetime,, none have died for my freedoms.
Same here
And the same could be said for people that are 20 years older than me

The OP can relax. He's getting his war.

quote:EXACTLY. And this is by their own choice. They have not been coerced into this. They aren't acting out because of prior US involvement in their region.
They can't be "loved" into abandoning their desire for domination (whether through violence or other), they can only be fought
THEY HATE ANYONE WHO IS NOT MUSLIM.
Newsflash - THEY EVEN HATE "MODERATE" MUSLIMS
The skyscreamers itt don't even realize that the jihadists attack moderate muslims all the time

I’ve heard the opposite from people who I know that have traveled to Tehran. Most of the citizenry do not view America as their mortal enemy. It’s a minority, but powerful sect of theocratic radicals that get all the attention

Opinions, sloganeering, and talking points are not facts.
You have to produce facts, to stand on facts.
You are parroting a Bush-era talking point, or your own opinion, and then saying "that's a fact"
But saying something is a fact, doesn't make it one.

Alrighty.

Much of the American blood shed in Iraq was at the explicit behest of Iran, who supported the Shi'a militias directly and other anti-American fighters with material or intelligence at the very least.
Since the revolution, they have been a major exporter of terrorism and instability.

I read the OP. All of it. The guy makes a really strong argument for going ahead and invading China. He's a proactive interventionalist for sure.

You do realize that you're also describing Israel right?
Perhaps you could list some Israeli suicide bombers who put on a bomb vest and blew up a bus stop full of civilians. Or the Israelis who invaded a village and massacred all the women and children who were attending church services

You saved yourself a ton of Bush/Obama-level warmongering apologetics
