It’s a bad idea for the US to again get involved in Iraq. We can’t stop the fighting/killing/wars in the mid-east. Not in Iraq, not in Gaza, not in Afghanistan or any foreign nation. I understand humanitarian aspect and wanting to help the innocent. But the truth is we can’t stop people from wanting to kill each other; especially when we kill people in the name of righteousness.

When will the US realize we aren’t the world police. When will the US realize we aren’t nation building. In the end we just create more enemies. Bottom line is we can't change anything with bombs and arms sales to other nations. I’m more and more starting to believe our best course is isolationist.
