also saw an article about a 'confrontation' between an iranian patrol boat and one of our aircraft carriers....it wasn't a confrontation at all. those are int'l waters; all craft can sail there.
while some are beating the war drums for iran, others are all about syria. of course the un failed to approve a peacekeeping force due to vetoes by russia and china, which angered others. however, the arab nations are taking care of it on their own. perhaps russia and china did us a favor? that way, we can point fingers and call them the bad guy, but it frees us from any responsibility.
i know i've been called 'pro-military', i guess because i and some of my family have served, but i don't recall anyone as vocal on here about mistakes made, and the ridiculous size of our armed forces and it's budget. but hey, can't ruin some peoples' fun i suppose.
