This is, by the way, the same Jefferson who sought an “entangling alliance” with the Holy Roman Empire, France, Britain, and whoever else would join in our first “War on Terror” against the Barbary Pirates. When no one else would help (sound familiar?) TJ used a Joint Resolution to literally “declare war” on the Bey of Tripoli, and ALL other terrorist nations in the region, until they all submitted. TJ had no problem, either, with an “entangling alliance” with FRANCE-—only one with England.
