I said we should stop supporting Israel at the exclusion of Palestine.

I stand corrected.

That's not the issue....we are making a preemptive strike that will cause a fortune in money and good will for what......

Freedom for Iraqis? A chance at life with liberty? Free speech, rather than speech and death? Justice, even if delayed, for all those murdered? No more gassing of Iraqi civilians?

that whole region is so unstable and so fraught with petty jealousies that it will take decades to straighten it out. I want no part of it.

I would like to have no part of it as well. Nobody wants to help someone being mugged. Do you turn and walk away though? No, you do something. Either you confront the mugger on the spot, if you have that capability. Or, more likely (for personal safety reasons), you try to do the right thing after the fact (help the victim, and do what you can to get the mugger behind bars).

Can't you see the right and wrong here? I am pretty sure you see the wrong, but must you be so short-sighted as to do another wrong? (nothing) What is that saying, "3 rights make a left but 2 wrongs don't make a right" or some such thing.

What would you think if Russia saw all the recent conflict between the US and Europe and decided to do a regime change in DC?

That is a ridiculous statement. I need not elaborate as it is patently self evident.
