False. There is also Chechnya, in fact much of Muslim/Caucuses Russia in general was better off under Soviet influence. Uzbekistan. Dagestan. Kyrgyzstan. Afghanistan too, which probably would have ended up like the others if we didn't intervene.
At your pace you should include Yugoslavia.
It's idiotic to believe anyone is better under a totalitarian, terrorist regime. But... American leftists... they could live with it.
It's easy to be "tough" with other peoples lives, chickenhawks are amusing.
Chickenhawks?
You find that Bush 43's policies that resulted in us not getting hit during his time... Chickenhawkish?
You see... it's leftists who don't believe in a strong military, border control, and who do everything in their power to weaken institutions vital to national security that are dangerous to Americans and America.
The world without America would be a very dark place. But... the leftists have some perverted guilt syndrome and warped view of the world. They believe if we did nothing, we wouldn't have a problem.
And we did get attacked. Thousands of soldiers lost their lives in these pointless wars, what are you talking about? The only reason 9/11 happened in the first place was BECAUSE OF OUR FOREIGN POLICY. If we weren't dicking around in the Middle East in the first place we wouldn't have pissed them off enough for them to fly planes into buildings.
You mean the Kuwaiti's didn't want us to assist them?
With your world view... Saddam would have marched all over the ME.
You are a rather typical brainwashed citizen. You think the government is "protecting" you by stealing your money to pay for pointless wars that don't make you safer, and arguably make you a lot less safe. War is the health of the state, and you are a statist.
The role of the government is not to create Ponzi Schemes and waste trillions doing so. It's not there to "invest". It's #1 job IS national security, for without it, we have no future.
I would love to live in some Utopian fantasy where everyone gets along, but that's not the history of mankind, and it's not the world we're living in. You seem to embrace that world view, and also embrace the world view of The Moron with the Machete. As noted before... you sound very much like him... and it's folks like you who are very dangerous... and our enemies, those who lop off heads... love you.
