You're right about humanitarian missions when it comes to staying. You should have bombed the crap out the Taliban and then just left. Drop leaflets telling the people that if the Taliban or people like them are in power in 5 years time you'll do it all over again. If the leadership and military get wiped out every 5 years the people might just decide to put moderates in power. It's also cheaper than staying.
Man, what a misdiagnosis. The issue is Islamic imperialism and the spread of the Sharia over the entire earth. You should have had the guts to go into Southern Sudan and help the people who share your values.
You think you are not going to get bitten if you just mind your own business? Islam does not allow criticism and anything short of America adopting the Sharia will not be good enough. You will still be the great Satan. Get an education. Read "The Third Choice" by Mark Durie.
I think Scarborough is right on the money. If anyone sends in troops to stop genocide it should be the U.N. The U.N. will always have more credibility than a single nation acting alone.
The UN is a corrupt, mismanaged farce of an amalgm of free and enslaved nations, incapable of organizing a trip to the bathroom let alone peace. This is wishful minded utopian crap from what is normally a reputable institution. I know Scarborouh isn't a fellow, but seriously, just b/c someone agrees with CATO's neo-isolationist stance does not automatically make them worthy to lecture us about such things.
I think Ron Paul said it best (not verbatim)- "We went into Vietnam to fight oppression and socialism. Anyone who understands freedom realizes that socialism was doomed from the start. The founding fathers, knew best, never make alliances with other countries but have free trade. We pulled out of the war not as victors. However, freedom won in the end without our involvement. We now have free trade with Vietnam, and our citizens openly visit there."
so unussual but it's kinda amazing…

Intellectually vapid and obscene.
I'm a proud support of CATO but opinions like these are why I will never call myself a big L, libertarian.
The UN should be abolished.

@GOPsithlord Using the United Nations? Unless he means using them as a scape goat its just crazy. The UN is useless. I agree with you 100%.

Wait. What's it called when a guy holds one position (let's get out of the UN) then later decides the opposite is true (use the UN)?
