why we have any interest in the middle east at all. It certainly is

Maybe it's just simple humanitarianism.

There are people being ****ed over all over the planet and we really
do not care in most places.

That's true. But that's not to say we shouldn't do what we can where we can. I'd love to see us
doing more to punish the assholes in Africa doing their damndest to rape, plunder and pillage
everything they can, including girls even younger than those Harry likes.

Perhaps we take on those who may present a bigger threat. Of course, if you believe there are no
threats out there, then that is a meaningless point also.

How many kids would you send to Somalia? Congo? Yeah, I thought so.

Depends on the situation and the terrain. But, the fact that the suffering are black doesn't take
away from the humanity issue.

Maybe it is just the geography but it is true we have ignored human
rights violations in most of the world. Carter paid lip service to
Angola and Clinton made one ill fated raid in Somalia. Other than that
it is just a few Hollywood types complaining from their Malibu pool
decks with the occasional well armed safari into the bush for a photo
op.
