  1. A good point. There's no need to shell Buffalo or Detroit just yet with 155mm.

  2. Guns vs. Butter. You can't eat a tank. And Howitzers don't give healthcare. Priorities are changing....

  3.  @spingebill8551  All good ideas.

  4.  @wisenber  Ukraine is a dead nation. The Eastern half is Pro Russian and want to be so. ReDraw the maps. Just like Serbia and Kosovo. China and the South China Sea? Everyone in the region makes claims. China has the biggest stick. If they want build Islands, no skin off my back. There are no Chinese burning or rioting and pulling statues in my country. Keep them busy putting screws in iPhones. And China and the World will be happy.

  5.  @afatcatfromsweden  Nobody is marching over the ice to Canada to steal beer🍺....The Canadian Army has been bled for the Commonwealth needs since 1815. The rest are UN or NATO actions.

  6.  @ExUSSailor  That is debatable.

  7.  @otakunthevegan4206  Same basic view. The people right now see domestic needs as greater than international.

  8.  @danielsteger8456  You seem to have a isolationist view of about 100 years ago. That American interests end 12miles off the beaches...

  9.  @Nostalgiagate6392  Depends on what you think the threat focus should be? I think it is still Islamic terrorism. Russia and China? They want to control what they have. Not expand. Then you have Wild cards like, Venezuela, Iran, North Korea, Syria or Libya.

  10.  @entity6609  Islamic terrorism is the common foe. Make nice with Russia and crush it together.

  11. @EliteJag Islamic terrorism has spread into Africa and Europe. China wants to become the economic power the US and UK did a century ago. Land grab is not the goal. Long term China needs to keep a billion folks working. Leave the Mid East? Well Trump is doing things to make that happen. A good thing. But Iran is still dangerous to the region.

  12.  @wisenber  It's not China's interest to block Sea trade. It's not in the World's. We keep sending the Navy through yelling about it. But, China has done nothing really. Same way we keep poking into the Black Sea. We have little trade or historical reason to be In Russia's back yard. And Please, don't give me Turkey?🙄 All Russia really wanted was Sevastopol. All parties don't even argue about it now.

  14.  @andrewmoore7022  As long as my take out order is right 🥡; I have no beef with China. They're just doing what we and the UK did 100 and 200 years ago. Want to fix something? Fix people in the USA getting shot by their government. 🤨 Vietnam and The P.I. are free to fight over rocks. Sorry, Andrew. It's 9-11 19 years later. Not feeling it today to be fighting anyone 3000 miles away when things are screwed here.

  15.  @danielsteger8456  There is a time and place when we must act and react. We are interconnected. We can't hide behind a Ocean and pretend we are a Island. A do nothing Foreign policy is not a real option. However, we should use that power carefully and wisely.

  16.  @danielsteger8456  You need to check your history again. The USA didn't invade Vietnam. South Vietnam was a independent nation from 1954 to 1975. They faced a Communist insurgency backed by North Vietnam. That grew to a full invasion. We came to the aid of Allies in need.

  17.  @danielsteger8456  It resulted in a Peace Treaty in 1973. Only to be broken....

  18.  @arvedludwig3584  We have had a World War for 19 years.

  19.  @arvedludwig3584  Very...The War on Terror is as big WW1 or WW2.
