Do you really think I'm that influencial? Thanks. The bottom line is this. Real world facts from our era DO NOT support your highly interventionist beliefs. Sorry, you can insult and try to sound tough and suggest controling all world behavior all you want but Peter is responding to real world evidence, as do I. Your idea of foreign policy no longer works and if you cannot change with the times you're just another blustering old dinosaur to be ignored.
On the contrary, you're that dime a dozen. Many people hate their country, you're not alone, nor 'influencial.'
Actually, the bottom line is your atrocious spelling. Influential.......doesn't have a f'n c in it, donttread. Influence has a c in it, influential doesn't, if you're a well read individual, you'd know this.The bottom line is this.
Donttread....does the word 'controling' have one l or two? Hmm.Real world facts from our era DO NOT support your highly interventionist beliefs. Sorry, you can insult and try to sound tough and suggest controling all world behavior all you want but Peter is responding to real world evidence, as do I. Your idea of foreign policy no longer works and if you cannot change with the times you're just another blustering old dinosaur to be ignored.
And I understand completely we blustering dinos are being ignored. Why...it happens on these pages quite frequently, doesn't it? We'll all remember the rise of the Islamic State, we T-Rex's were ignored then too. You isolationists and 'realism disciples' like Peter were blustering forth. "The US has no interest in the outcome in Syria." "The Islamic State is a made up boogieman."
Ransom cautioned and blustered........uhhh......Gentlemen.....the US best do something about this....this is a national security crisis.
The realists like Pete and Obama blustered jv team/sideshow, no security interests.
Donttread........not only ignored the blustering neocons.....he went as far as to ask.....well "what threat does ISIS pose the US anyways?"
And note actually reality.....the actual bottom line.......member donttread don't ask that question anymore. Ever. Member donttread had his question not only answered, but firmly answered so.....that question has never ever seen the light of day again, after all, how would it look today? After Paris, after San B, after Nice, after Berlin..........what would donttread look like asking that question......why....he'd look naïve is what he would look like. As well, Peter don't claim we've no interest in the outcome of the conflict in Syria any longer either.
BEcause you both have learned. Either Ransom.....or reality......both were speaking the same language and speaking it correctly. You two bone fcked the Islamic State analysis.....and continue to do so today. Bottom line.......listen to your Uncle Ransom....I'll steer you true.
