Why is it OK for 20% of the country's population to terrorize, oppress, rape, exploit and enslave the remaining 80% as long as they stay inside the country's borders, but it's not OK for the US to kill the 20% that's doing the oppressing and let the remaining 80% start from scratch?
Who died and made you God? Who are you to determine the future of others? Who makes you so superior that you know what's best? You are sounding more and more out there.
You can ask all the above questions to the 20% of the population that is oppressing the 80% of their fellow citizens.
But instead, please answer the question - why do you think it is OK for that 20% (or less) of the population of a given country to oppress the remaining 80%+, but it is not OK for the US to oppress the 20%?
In other words, why is it OK for citizens of a given country to abuse and kill their fellow citizens, but not OK for the US to abuse and kill the abusers?
Because the US does not always show good judgement in these matters. We are not saints. And we have a lot of work to do here.
Of course that is correct, it implies intervention in another country's affairs should be done with great planning, preparation and cause. It doesn't, however, rule it out under any circumstance (which was your conclusion, which perhaps you should reconsider).
I'm not saying intervention in another country's affairs should be done lightly, and it seldom is, but there are certainly some cases where it is a good policy. |
