The Obama fellow is quite the war monger isn’t he?

[Ohioan]

This is not what we fund our armed forces for. This is not what young Americans enlist for. This is not authorized in our Constitution, nor in any sense equivalent to one of our actions in the Cold War, where the real mission was to defend America.

Moreover, the idea that Americans can be sent into jungle combat for no reason but the whim of a would be dictator, seeking to build some form of Marxist influenced redistributive "World Order," is a real morale killer for those who have signed up to defend America, her Constitution & heritage.

Congress needs to make certain that this sort of adventure is not authorized in the Defense or any other budget. This sort of intrusion into other nations' civil wars, where we have no legitimate issue, has been considered unacceptable in international affairs for centuries. But, of course, those who do not respect American sovereignty would not be likely to respect anyone else's.

(And yes, respecting other nation's sovereignty means letting them defend against their own guerrilla movements.)
