Yes, America needs to exert a good moral influence. Diplomacy should rule as much as possible. She has to do global thinking.
We can and must use force when necessary as in Libya and in Kosovo.
We must learn better when and when not to use force to help others.
Sen. Hagel is a thoughtful Republican about Iran. I favor him.
We must always avoid isolationism,pacifism but never be belligerentacting contrary to what others need. We did right in helping to expulse the Iraquis from Kuwait ,but erred grievously in ousting Saddam in the manner we did. We could have enable the Iraquis themselves to rid themselves of him and his two sons.
Free trade would help peace as FDR knew.
We must thus be pragmatic realists in foreign policy.
Any ideas for peace?
