To be accurate, I totally believe that we should be helping to fight this type of thing going on in the world. I totally believe that just because we don't have a national interest in the area we should not show some level of involvement, it is in our best interest not to be selfish fucks. But, then again we can't be all things to all people.
My problem is with a group of people who want to send guys like me places to fight, bleed, and die for a fight they themselves are not committed to fighting. It really doesn't matter if it's for their profit or their conscience.
