56. Not defending, but wasn't that done because of the increased
presence of Al Queada in Yemen? I don't support war but isn't it intellectually dishonest to equate what the Obama admin has done to what neocons want? Neocons have a philosophy that basically consists of shutting down Islam, getting all the oil,and then turning those places into democracies. I think the Obama admin is simply trying to rid certain countries of Al Queada. While it does all lead to the same end: war, I think the scope of a democratic admin's war will always remain far smaller than the scope of a repub admin's war. It appears that a dem president will focus on actual threats to us and not start full scale wars all over the globe just because. In the end, it's your choice, but I just want to see how everyone feels about this.
