Egypt is free. They reformed themselves. For me that is proof that
war is not the way to spread democracy. It never has been. It is more
proof that we should stay out of global politics and interference. I
believe that democracy would have come to the middle east sooner,
decades sooner without our support of autocratic rule.
And yet we must live with the world we have. I have come to believe we do need troops stationed in key hot spots of the world. I hope there will come a time when it is a different world and our economy is transformed to one that is not dependent on the consumption of weapons and war.
