Hi, could you stop murdering people?
-No.
Well, I tried, talk again in a few months?
-Sure, this shouldn't take more than six weeks anyway.
That's the problem, really, Boru. It would be amazing if Chad was okay with that, but when he hears Assads cheerleader say "no regime change wars" he doesn't put two and two together. So muich...so very much of who we are and what we take for granted, our place on the world stage as the indispensible nation and people who could be counted on to do the right thing (even if it takes us awhile to come around to it) depends on our willingness to be, and peoples understanding that we are..Those People, That Nation. It's something that dictators have to take into account before they do whatever fucked up thing they have planned next.
Anymore, we're signalling to the people and dictators alike that we aren't that country. That they can do whatever the fuck they want without worrying about a bunch of americans sending them off to the hague or the grave. Hell, we might even help, if the price is right!
It's not an accident that the worst parts of our cold war legacy are being used to manipulate people into destroying the decent and good parts on account of it.
-No.

I am the Infantry. I am my country’s strength in war, her deterrent in peace. I am the heart of the fight… wherever, whenever. I carry America’s faith and honor against her enemies. I am the Queen of Battle. I am what my country expects me to be, the best trained Soldier in the world. In the race for victory, I am swift, determined, and courageous, armed with a fierce will to win. Never will I fail my country’s trust. Always I fight on…through the foe, to the objective, to triumph overall. If necessary, I will fight to my death. By my steadfast courage, I have won more than 200 years of freedom. I yield not to weakness, to hunger, to cowardice, to fatigue, to superior odds, For I am mentally tough, physically strong, and morally straight. I forsake not, my country, my mission, my comrades, my sacred duty. I am relentless. I am always there, now and forever. I AM THE INFANTRY! FOLLOW ME!
