No. It's not. Military force is something different. I presume you wouldn't want China and India wading around the globe with their militaries (or maybe you would, but I don't). If you understand the precedent set by military intervention you would be more leery of unilateral action, or I would think you would be. Maybe you wouldn't care. In which case we have a disagreement unresolvable by any type of discussion. You realize Gate's help doesn't come at the end of a rifle, right? Countries could refuse the help of the Gate's foundation, if they wanted to. I imagine Iraq would have refused to be invaded- if you had polled the people of Iraq.
