My two contributions to the thread (other than pointing out your trolling) involved my own thoughts on the subject and my personal belief that I do not have a solid answer.

I think its sick and we should pull every bit of help away from every country in the middle east.

But that's not a popular opinion.

Anyway, You are correct that this is not new to the region.  Nor will it change while we are there or after we leave.


But the point remains that does our moral superiority end when another country thinks that what we do is wrong?  Can Russia invade us because we believe in SSM?  Or ISIS?


Messing with cultures...the country where they are practiced...is a very dangerous proposition.


On the other side of the coin we have military people sexually attacking their own members and lack of concern over that from the top brass.


I don't think its black and white but I also don't think I have a good answer for it either.

You are asking redundant questions about immigration.

Solid post.
