Robert,
I was against intervention in Somalia. I even sent Bill Clinton a letter explaining why we should get out. One week later, there were 18 dead Army Rangers.
I was for the arms embargo to Yugoslavia during the war. The biggest mistake was to send weapons (as Clinton did) to the Muslims and Croatians. Those weapons were used to ethnically cleanse the Krajina Serbs. Do you ever wonder why the Serbs don't trust Clinton? They have good reason not too.
I was against the intervention in Bosnia and Croatia. The war was winding down just when Clinton sent in the weapons. Result: 500,000 more refugees. If you don't believe me, go to one of the web sites for Yugoslavian missing persons. You will see the names of Slovanians, Croatians, Muslims, and Serbs. Everyone ate shit because of Clintons moves.
I was against the intervention in the 40 other some odd places where ethnic warfare is occuring, whether it is in Ireland, Palestine, South Africa, Rhuwanda, or Kosovo. I am a firm believer in the "Weinberger Doctrine" which was developed during the Reagan Administration. It states that US Military forces should never be used except in the case of US National Security. Clinton has turned our military into a gigantic international police force. He is a fool. He is wasting our tax dollars, and the lives of our soldiers in these endless peacekeeping missions. But what do you expect from a President that is more concerned with his penis than his job performance?
