Well, suppose we'd stayed out. Then we'd hear screaming about all the children being starved to death over there because of the economic embargo which would have continued. The far Left will condemn U.S. administrations no matter what happens because frankly they don't like the United States or its government. I've listened to 40 years of this stuff nonstop.
There's no question that the largest, most powerful states in the world will be imperialistic in nature to one degree or another. Rome, China, Russia, and now the U.S. Out of these four I do think the U.S. has the least abusive government. I value the Left's services as a watchdog but doubt if they'll ever be politically relevant again. They can't win a race for Mayor of San Francisco, the nation's most liberal town. I would have more respect for them if they got real for a change. They were a force for change in the 1930s to early 60s. But not since then.

We're going to look out for own like everyone else does. But yes, al-Qaeda and IS will be killing fewer Muslims if they are on the run.
