I would prefer that we push for change in enemy regimes like NK, Iran, Burmuda, and Venuzuela rather than demand a rolling of the dice with our stable allies.
Obama said Jack S*** to NK, Iran, and just 2 weeks ago he was not chiding Hu Jinto on human rights.
He was kissing his *** and throwing him a party.
“would prefer that we push for change in enemy regimes like NK, Iran, Burmuda, and Venuzuela”
Agreed. But certainly not a mutually exclusive choice.
“rather than demand a rolling of the dice with our stable allies.”
No demand, just a clear statement of support for Liberty, and legitimate government based on the consent of the governed. Mubarek is going to fall. We didn’t cause either his rise or fall - but we did lend support along the way. He has failed. That’s not our fault. What happens in his wake can either be a good thing or a disaster - our support for those that can make it a good thing should not be dismissed.
