Hmmm let's see, in the early 80's, we sent Marines into Beirut, with good intentions to regulate peace in the area. But we really didn't understand the people, the culture, and the next thing you know we have a trucks flying around loaded with explosives, driving into our barracks and killing our boys. We say "F it" and bail. The region continues to be unstable.

Then we go into Somalia, and I really don't have to get into it, we all know what happens. Good intentions, we don't understand the people, our boys die, we bail.

Now let's consider Iraq. Sure they don't like Saddam, but guess what? We invade, occupy, and they will like us even less. Hmmmmmmmmm....good intentions, don't understand......you get the drift.

Problem is, it won't be any of you dying, so it's pretty damn easy to be so gung-ho eh?
