This is the problem with Realism as a foreign policy.

Realism is short-hand for: A foreign policy devoid of any moral compass, that exclusively seeks short-term economic/military/political gain, that ignores all longterm consequences, ignores all secondary and tertiary consequences, that ignores all the ideals in the Constitution and Declaration of Independence. It amounts to permanent crisis management. And man, does it hurt when the Law of Unintended Consequences circles around and bites us on the butt.
