Historically, the U.S. has been involved for a very long time.

We hv defeated Red Army we will defeat America its just we waiting for a mistake to be made..Forexample an attack on iran

[shadowofears]

Pakistan was a moderate state before they launch so called Drones that kills 140 innocents Pakistanies for each taliban..In short words they are creating more suiside bombers than killing them..If that strategy is working then why there is still resistance after 9 years & tell me why Americans are willing to debate with Talibans( i thought they would never negotiate with Terrorists but Americans are known Hypocrates)

[MWcrazyhorse]

let us face it democracy is #4 on the list why the U.S are fighting in the region. The real reasons are oil, the Israel lobby and religion, or have you all forgotton Bush was a fundamentalist evangelico.

@MajNorberg Yeah not religious fundamentalism...

What motivated the 9/11 hijackers to attack the US?

US foreign policy bias for Israel in the Israeli-Palestinian conflict

and US government support for the other oppressive regimes in the Middle East.

..Khalid Shaikh Mohammed, the man who conceived and directed the Sept.11 terrorist attacks, was motivated by his strong disagreement with U.S. Foreign Policy favoring Israel... 9/11 Commission Report, p147

chandramania:US needs? to assess it's Foreign Policy

.When you see 2 men fighting on the street you try to break it up....you Don't take a side add fuel to the fire.

Ditto for Israeli/Palestinian Conflict....

which is the reason for 911

But my friends, the whole world knows that the USA has merely become Greater Israel in the last 60 years. that will help you to understand so much of the US dynamic in the Middle East and why it is ok for the US to arm one side of a conflict they created in 1948

[antiparticlesteve]

The US created this problem through the manipulated 1948 UN vote to establish the state of Israel. CAUSE and EFFECT.

Now, to fix the problem one must do the opposite to the 1948 UN vote.

(Cont'd 6). So, in answer to the question "Should the U.S. be involved in the Arab-Israeli conflict?"

YES and NO. Once they enable a wholesale slaughter like this to take place, vs a proportional response with Israel properly defending itself, they better get in tere and help broker a cease fire, vs vetoing conflict-resolution measures. On the other hand, the US should get the hell out of supplying arms to Israel. It has provided nothing but antagonism in rest of the region.

[quicksite]

(Cont'd 5) because their assumptions that they can merrily go and allocate US spending, ignore the will of the people, give the thumbs up to extreme aggression, and then acting as if they have no role in this escalation of slaughter, this can very much come back and haunt them.

On YouTube we get news from non-mainstream US Controlled Media. We see what others in the world see now. And as citizens of US become further disintermediated from the US-govt narrative, there is going to be blowback.
