Benko asks a good question. Asking rhetorical questions back does not advance the discussion. "Anti-colonialist" means against colonialism. "unfavorable to the US" means something that does not favor the US.TennPaGa wrote:How is "making foreign policy decisions that turn out unfavorable to the U.S." equivalent to "anticolonialist"?Benko wrote: Tenn PA how about debunking me? Go through the list of Obama's foreign policy decisions and point out ones that have turned out favorably for the US?
And what does "anticolonialist" mean anyway?
What does "unfavorable to the U.S." mean?
For example, I'd say the U.S. NOT intervening in Egypt or Syria (so far) has been favorable to the U.S. because (i) no U.S. blood was spilled and (ii) the U.S. has no compelling interest in what goes on in either of those countries anyway, so doing "something" will be worse than doing nothing.
Attempting to inject moral relativism to every discussion is a trademark of the left when confronted with unpleasant facts.
