No, I would defend my house, my country.....not someone else's house, someone else's country.

This remark makes absolutely no sense when considered in the context of other posts of yours. You have complained that the "rest of the world" hates America because of its actions in Iraq. Yet, you are saying that we should all fight our own wars.

Don't you see a rather idiotic inconsistency here? It is glaring.

You want a nation's foreign policy to be subjected to the prerogatives of the UN or whatever the world organization of the day is. Yet, you want countries to stand on their own when it comes to war, the method of enforcing International Law as it is interpreted by the UN and other world bodies. Without the US to enforce UN stipulations, the UN is a powerless, useless organization (some would argue it is, anyway, and I wouldn't disagree). But it is ABJECTLY useless without the American military's enforcement arm.

As usual, you aren't thinking clearly. You have to have an enforcement capability that is consistent with the rulemaking body.

PS - I'm trying to discuss this with you as though you had reasonable intellect, but I'm well aware that you don't have, so you need not reply.
