    That is correct.

    Certainly the Trump genocide of the Kurds is proof
    Trump genocide of the Kurds? And you wonder why we point at you and laugh and call you a fucking idiot?

    The Strategic Studies Institute is the U.S. Army's institute for geostrategic and national security research and analysis. The Strategic Studies Institute conducts strategic research and analysis to support the U.S. Army War College curricula, provides direct analysis for Army and Department of Defense leadership, and serves as a bridge to the wider strategic community.

    Only if we have bases close enough to target them. But alas, fake expert, you cannot bomb an enemy into submission. That takes boots on the ground.
    we don't need bases we have worldwide air reach with both drones and bombers

    I would think you had learned that at FAKE Army war college.
    you should study up. Counter-terrorism vs. Counterinsurgency are the two strategies

    That wasn't my question; Is it your contention that when Saddam invaded Kuwait, WE, the USA, do nothing?
    Kuwait was an invasion by one state on another. we went in rightly with a 'grand' coalition.
    It was a good move

    Again, answer the question without flailing and deflecting; is it YOUR position that after 9-11 we do nothing?
    once again. we could have done all the anti-terrorism we needed to do by air.
    Going in on the ground was because we decided to rebuild Afghanistan

    That would do nothing to prevent tyranny. We hit them hard and left in Vietnam. How did that work out?
    another reason not to go into foreign civil wars. Vietnam was the classic example of "quagmire".
    you can get in,but you can't get out

    It's called learning from mistakes made.
    I tell my employees that a mistake isn't a mistake if it's a learning experience. It becomes a mistake when nothing is learned from it.
    Neocons, (bush, Lindsey, HRC, progs infected with TDS, etc.) are seemingly incapable of learning from past mistakes.
