I wonder what the founders would say if they heard that kind of crap? The world was just find before we invaded it, and it will continue to thrive without our presence. By continuously making enemies throughout the world, our nation security is always going to be threatened. We are sewing the seeds of our own destruction because we keep starting wars, putting sanctions on others, and occupy sovereign lands in the name of providing quick fixes to our problems of today.
Sometimes, as I look at pictures of children whose parents just got killed by our troops due to a simple case of mistaken identity, their bodies covered in dirt and blood, and with crying faces so horrific it should make the stomach of any decent person churn, I think to myself, "Will those kids become the terrorists of tomorrow? Will they seek revenge for their parents and other lost loves?"
As Americans, we tend to forget about the humanity of others, especially if it's considered unpatriotic to do so. Yet, for those of us on these forums, we easily see that it's due to our interventions of yesterday that we suffer these problems of today. If we respond through more intervening, orphaning children, imposing sanctions on countries that have not proved to be a threat to our nation, and treating the world like a massive chess board, then the generations of tomorrow will find themselves in similar situations and will be forced to ask if they want to repeat our mistakes, or to correct them through adherence to the Constitution.
I, for one, would like to see an America with a strong national defense, a symbolic leader to look up to, and with a future that looks bright and clear, provided we haven't already nurtured a new generation of terrorists just waiting to grow a bit older. If you don't endorse Ron Paul for president, you're basically saying that you want your kids, or grandkids, to suffer more terrorist attacks, the likes of which can only be tempered through a full-blown police state.
America is on a dangerous path. Our foreign policy is directly tied to our economic prosperity, our freedom, and our future.
