And good for y'all. I sure wish the US government had listened to foreign naysayers concerning the illegal Iraqi invasion. If her or any other leader wishes to go to war for this or that reason which is found spurious by most right-thinking people, they should be given pause by a lack of support.

I believe Hilary will struggle to find allied countries willing to expand the war in Syria - as she has said she wants to do. And that will look really bad for her.
Worry not. Disregarding foreign sentiment. After running the two longest wars in Americanl history concurrently, there is no political will at home for another large deployment of ground forces. Barring an earth-shaking terror attack here on American soil, I don't think that will change. The American public is sick of these wars too, with a few exceptions.

Point is, you're right, the wars in Middle East don't affect the United States and the United States is unwilling to clean up the mess it makes by taking in a reasonable amount of refugees so Europe is left to pick up the pieces as refugees can't exactly cross the Atlantic Ocean.
Agreed, we Americans should be doing more to ameliorate the suffering we've caused, and that includes taking in more refugees -- without the stigma of being Muslim -- because we're the ones who ultimately helped make them refugees in the first place.

Well, we don't control their foreign or domestic policy, so the word "allows" is an odd choice, to my mind.
