re: #431 allegro

I think that was a primary motivation, yes. If we were only motivated by human rights interests our military would be much busier in other parts of the world.

We tried that once. It was called Vietnam. 20/20 hindsight told us not to go where we didn’t have interests to defend.

Or at least that was the meme for years and years.

So, we go where we have interests AND can achieve a victory for human rights and we still get bitched at.
