if we are leading, who exactly is following our lead?

up?

you used to be very reasoned and thoughtful. why can’t someone else help out? what is the UN for, exactly?

you lead by example. I haven't changed. It's the Republican party that has changed although there is significant R push back at this.

so how long do we
lead there, before someone else, or the UN, can follow
our example?

We have minimal assets there.

I think you have made this forum a cesspool and there is no reason not to respond to insults with insults.
If this place was serious there would be no reason to allow SD to post to post her with his constant childish comments. It is embarrassing.

i didn’t say we had massive assets there. i merely asked how long you think we should stay.

the answer is, until a democrat decides to pull out, at which point you’d all give him the nobel
peace prize.

and you say i’m angry? yeesh, read your post.

My serious answer is that if we want to remain the number one global power and be a leader we need to stay true to our commitments and also be willing to use our troops when the time is right and most importantly use them to complete what was started.

so you’d stay there forever? at some point, have we done enough?

does the rest of the world have any responsibility? or just the US?

we went there to fight ISIS, i don’t think the mission was to prevent Turkey from invading.

We could have Israel deal with it. Oh wait. They just spend all the money on national health care.

Well, they do have all that spare cash available since they don’t have to deal with Turkey.
