[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]From CNN article: https://www.cnn.com/2023/10/13/politics/donald-trump-israel-netanyahu-diplomacy/index.html

"The former president is advocating a return to his “America First” nationalist foreign policy, prizes tough talk and ruthlessness on the global stage, and remains disdainful of allies and the international security architecture that has been the foundation of American power since the end of World War II. While these are positions that would represent a sharp transformation of US foreign policy, it is quite legitimate for him to present them to voters and try to win support for his vision."

Yep, love it or hate it, it's a major shift away from funding and being involved in regional conflicts all over the globe. Possibly unique in our political system where both old school Republicans and moderate Democrats are pro-war.[/quote]

The opposite of this is not peace, it is letting authoritarians take control of the world assets. That is not a win for the US, or the companies that drive out capitalist society. It isn't a matter of being "pro-war" it is matter of preventing catastrophic war in light of nuclear solutions to angered nations. No one in the US WANTS war. It would be a lot better if bad actors like Putin were put out of power. Short of that, we can either let one country invade another, or we can do what we can to maintain some sort of order. Why is Russia at war in Ukraine? Who knows, but Ukraine is a soverign country that has been invaded. We either let Russia invade and take them over, or we support Ukraine. [b]Why should Russia be allowed to just take another country[/b]?[/quote]

Why is it the USA's job?[/quote]

It is the world's job, which is why the US are in DEFENSIVE alliances like NATO. If not the US, then who? And what are the ramifications if the US sits it out? Either Russia just steamrolls through Europe or the US joins Russia, which is what Trump wants, and subjugate humans as chattel for the wealthy and corrupt.

Let's put it this way. If the US doesn't do it, why do you assume your life would be the same "after" as compared to now?[/quote]
