Involvement in other countries has currently caused many problems for the US but if you really look back in US history, you will see that there are times when our involvement was completely necessary. After attack on Pearl Habor, If we went into complete seclusion instead fighting WWII, Japan probably would have taken over all of China. And what about all the Jews being massacred by the day in Germany, Poland, Austria, the Netherlands, and the Czech Republic. Should we have just let them die because we didn't want to get involved. There is no right and wrong answer for these situations. Our involvement in any situation will come with sacrifices but that is when you are faced question of if it's really worth it. To Mike, Norwalk: I have absolutely no idea what you are talking about when it comes to Iran. I would just like to inform you though that the Iranians hate the Mullahs and would much rather have the Shaw back. Iran was not like this before the Mullahs, you didn't have to where head scarfs or not aloud to go into to football games because your a woman. To Robert: I do agree that America is not the most superior country in the world but your examples of children and woman abuse is ridiculous. It's terrible that we have that in this country but look at so many other countries. There are still countries today where woman don't even have equal rights as a man. And really if you find America so culture-less and terrible, then why do you live here?
