THE TRUTH?
"I have a few questions for my colleagues:
What if our foreign policy of the past century is deeply flawed and has not served our national security interests?
What if we wake up one day and realize that the terrorist threat is a predictable consequence of meddling in the affairs of others and has nothing to do with us being free and prosperous?
What if propping up repressive regimes in the middle east endangers both the United States and Israel?
What if occupying countries like Iraq and Afghanistan and bombing Pakistan is directly related to the hatred directed towards us?
What if someday it dawns on us that losing over 5,000 American military personal in the middle east since 9/11 is not a fair trade off for the loss of nearly 3,000 American citizens no matter how many Iraqi, Pakistani and Afghan people are killed or displaced?
What if we finally decide that torture even if called "enhanced interrogation technique" is self destructive and produces no useful information and that contracting it out to a third world nation is just as evil?...........
