It is about time, IMHO. We have a bad habit of arming and training today our enemies for tomorrow. I believe that war is the last resort. If we go there, it needs to be quick, concise, and with concrete achievable goals.

I do not believe we are best served with "nation building" goals. ..unless that nation is our own.
