His point is that we have soldiers dying to give those same rights to non-US citizens who do not want them or have any appreciation of them in the least.


exactly, we should we be fighting a war, protecting elections, ensuring democracy for these people -Afghans? I respect anyone who served, but that doesnt make you a history expert.
You do realize that our strongest allies are Germany and Japan and you do realize what happened 65 years ago?
Do you thing you can say the same for Afghanistan?
