no complaints on change in policy, if ratified. By the same token, we could pick on 20M things that were done wrong in the past decade. where does that get us ?

Ratified by whom, kumar? The President directs foreign policy, not Congress. If you mean a war powers declaration, I understand what you mean.

As to picking on 20M things, yes we could. But that's not my intention. We have to examine the past, discover patterns, and adjust. We didn't take the post-Cold War threats seriously, and we paid for it.
