"Prudence, indeed, will dictate that governments long established should not be changed for light and transient causes; and accordingly all experience hath shown that mankind are more disposed to suffer, while evils are sufferable, than to right themselves by abolishing the forms to which they are accustomed. But when a long train of abuses and usurpations, pursuing invariably the same object evinces a design to reduce them under absolute despotism, it is their right, it is their duty, to throw off such government, and to provide new guards for their future security."
Declaration of Independence.
Notice it says "their right" or "their duty". No where does it say our sons and daughter should be sacrificed spreading our form of democracy, or that we have any right or duty to right the wrongs that occur in other countries.
Our armed forces are tasked with protecting these united states.
Iraq was never a threat to us.
