What does this mean what you wrote? This part, I mean. Thanks.We seem to feel an obligation to go to every 2-bit hell-hole around the world like Somalia and try to bring them "democracy" at the point of a gun barrel. Unfortunately, they don't seem to be too interested or grateful.

Somalia ain't Iraq or Syria Maxie. This isn't about the oddball international "meals-on-wheels" that got us into that mistake, this is about whacked out dictators building war gasses, missiles and trying to build nuclear devices all swearing to destroy us and all the while funding the kind of terror cells that did in thousands on 911. Try pulling your head far enough out of the darkness to recognize that defense is justified and that it is, in fact, an OBLIGATION of our national government. They swore an OATH to defend us against all enemies Maxie, ALL of them.

Unfortunately, they don't seem to be too interested or grateful. More likely it is not democracy we try to bring them. There is no way they could understand it or practice it. At least it is not going to happen so quick. Everyone must (or should) understand this.
Anyway, I think it more what we are trying to do for ourselves. I hope so. I hope our government understands nothing changes so fast. The reason the government give, demcracy, is not the real reason is what I mean.
Everything now should be about our security. Hitting back and hitting back very hard is what most of the world understand and respect. U.S. people are the only ones that think being nice in time like this show strength. All it show is weak and get no respect. That is really the way the world works and with some bad people you must just kill all of them because they never be good and they never give up.
