Are they somehow less deserving of freedom than we are? Sorry if it sounds like a campy 1960s super-hero comic book line, but I am of the mind set that where ever people are oppressed, where ever dictators are seeking genocide or ethnic cleansing, where ever people are denied life, liberty and the pursuit of happiness, that is where we (as Americans) should find our soldiers.
Fine sentiments, but America's involvement in interfering where it sees fit is inglorious, so I have no hesitation in rejecting your premise.
Anyway, do you want to see America policing the world? You'll need to spend all your wealth and build bigger cemeteries for your " glorious dead " if you have your way.
A man is born to a virgin mother, lives, dies, comes alive again and then disappears into the clouds to become his Dad. How likely is that?
