We had a relatively very peaceful 70 years thanks to American dominance, projection of power, and foreign policy. Now we are seeing what happens when America begins to retract. It only gets worse the more we pull back.
End all aide to Ukrain? Okay. Russia takes it. I guess you are good with that. If Russia moves on Poland, I guess you will be okay with that too? Sure they are a NATO ally, but **** 'em, Washington said we shouldn't have strategic allies and they don't send us any money or troops.
End all aide to Isreal? Okay. Would Isreal even exist today if we had gone with that policy from the start? Is that okay with you?
American foreign policy and the "military industrial complex" are favorite targets of the left for decades and now for the far right, but neither give any credit to how much better they have made the world. Neither have a plan that would result in a better future. Its US power that keeps the peace. Defund the police and get them out of the bad neighborhoods is an easy comparison. Very short sighted with very bad consequences.
