Rxbond,
The US is on a suicide mission for the sake of globalism
Funny you should mention that "globalism thingy."

I for one have no qualms about US special forces taking out ISIS leaders like this. We keep ourselves safe, we keep our allies safe, and we give notice to terrorists all around the world. If you want to fight us, we will bring the war to you at a time of our choosing.

But when the war on terrorism becomes a "globalism thingy," that's where things become a complete quagmire. That includes trying to democratize unstable regions that don't want to be democratized, all in an effort to drive a stake through the heart of terrorism.

I used to believe in that. Colin Powell once came up with the Pottery Barn rule: You break it, you own it.

Not anymore. We break the terrorists and make THEM own it.
