Horrifying thought?
What if all of those regime changes, disastrous as many of them have been, were actually the best possible outcome?
Frightening.
You reading minds? Where did you get that I thought many were positive outcomes?What's frightening is you seem to believe that many, or just some, were a positive outcome for us let alone the countries we brought Apple Pie and Bald Eagles too. That's pretty frightening
I said many or just someYou reading minds? Where did you get that I thought many were positive outcomes?
Either you misread my post, or you just want to fight.
Right. Kind of my point.I said many or just some
Fight? Weird
I think it's hard to argue that any were best possible outcomes bc if we kept our nose out the status quo was better for us and often for the oppressed
I was but a boy during those two particular interventionist acts. And I'd agree they appear successful. So I will adjust my argument and say in the last 35 yearsRight. Kind of my point.
As bad as things have turned out, can you imagine how bad they would be if the actual result was the best possible outcome?
Though in retrospect, getting rid of Noriega in Panama seems pretty positive, and kicking the Ruskies out of Grenada under the Queen’s nose when the Iron Lady sat on the sidelines was ok, too, but that’s about all I think of.
I suppose with those two, that is “some.”
Dammit, now you are calling me old!I was but a boy during those two particular interventionist acts. And I'd agree they appear successful. So I will adjust my argument and say in the last 35 years
Wasn't Noreiga our boy before he wasn’t? I think we just adjusted a problem we had created.Right. Kind of my point.

You can't change your gender either.
Just because you cut off the branches doesn't mean it's still not a tree.
