re: #258 Lincolntf
Completely unacceptable.
I presume you’re indulging your deepest fears with that post, and if I had the same fears I’d also post it, so I’m not criticizing you. But there are still bedrock principles in this country that even Obama won’t breach.
U.S. Forces actively fighting against Israel (the logical conclusion to sending them to Gaza) is not going to happen.
Guarding against tendencies is one thing, and we should do it, but inventing shibboleths to oppose is a waste of time and energy.
The other logical conclusion to sending them to Gaza would be the same as the rationale of keeping troops in Bosnia: as “peacekeepers”.
I doubt that would happen, either, but it did cross my mind.
