Re: Question for WMATAGMOAGH (or anyone else)

Since when have we ever sent troops in Israel's aid?

Iran has declared repeatedly that the USA is their number-one enemy. We should have never avoided confronting them on that score, ever; it makes us look like a paper tiger.

Like George Washington said in his Fifth Annual Address to Congress:
I cannot recommend to your notice measures for the fulfillment of our duties to the rest of the world without again pressing upon you the necessity of placing ourselves in a condition of complete defense and of exacting from them the fulfillment of their duties toward us. The United States ought not to indulge a persuasion that, contrary to the order of human events, they will forever keep at a distance those painful appeals to arms with which the history of every other nation abounds. There is a rank due to the United States among nations which will be withheld, if not absolutely lost, by the reputation of weakness. If we desire to avoid insult, we must be able to repel it; if we desire to secure peace, one of the most powerful instruments of our rising prosperity, it must be known that we are at all times ready for war. …
Sorry, but that is the only path to national safety for the USA itself, never mind its allies.
