You lost me. The Pearl Harbor attack was horrible.
If I am reading your statement correctly, it is very cowardly. You are saying that we should let the world be plunged into WWIII before we decide to chip in again - and then only if we are attacked? Then we get criticized for being Isolationist.
Damned if we do, damned if we don't. And that being the case, I would rather take the moral high ground to stomp out evil dictators who DO aid terrorist (reference Saddam's countless 'contributions/incentives' to the families of suicide bombers). Not to mention, he has broken 17 U.N. Resolutions, kicked out the UNSCOM inspectors, gassed his own people, and attacked all of his neighbors! But let's just slap is hand again and call him a bad boy.
If you are ignorant enough to blame the terrorist attacks on Americans, on the fact that the U.S. has taken an active interest in preserving our continued prosperity, well, that too is ignorant.
I blame the persistent attacks on us having a president that failed to take a firmer stand in the world. Yes, I am talking about Billy-boy (who in fact initiated Desert Fox and peppered Iraq with cruse missiles using the same argument that President Bush is using this time).
If you always wait for the war to come to you, one day you will find it has been brought with superior forces. And then your ideals will be gone. Your freedom to criticize will be stolen.
War is a terrible thing. Evil unchecked is even worse.
