By Abdulrahman al-Rashed. Who won the last time?
"What prevents many regimes and terrorist organizations from engaging in adventures is their fear that the price may be high. The idea of deterrence based on the option of using power has, for around seven decades, succeeded at decreasing the number of wars and maintaining stability in most of the world. The opposite is also true - making threats without implementing them deepens wars and encourages crimes to be committed." (Emphasis in the original)

The fecklessness of Democrats and their voters will cost this nation dearly, both economically and militarily in the future. But I fear the voting public is no longer educated nor perceptive enough to comprehend the importance of foreign policy. Nor do I see anyone in this nation able to inform them. TD
