I think we have a duty to ignore such conflicts like this from now on. Too many people will cry if we go to Liberia. Let them fucking bleed.
And you too. Don't like the US? Fine. Fuck off. Tend to your own goddamned problems and we won't have to.

I haven't read the entire thread so I apologise if this has been asked before.
Amp, as a Veteran of the US military, how do you feel about the USA's involvement in foreign conflicts of recent years? I don't mean the recent Afghanistan/Al-Queda stuff, but other stuff like Bosnia, Serbia, etc. Why has the US gone marching into conflicts not in direct (or even indirect) endangerment of the USA itself? Do you feel intervention like this (including Vietnam and Korea really) is justified?
Only wondering what a Gulf Veteran like yourself feels about this.
