Look at Muslim extremists worldwide and it's not even close.Sounds like the Muslim extemists and right wing extremists have a lot in common.

I'm all for energy independence. What are you on about?
943,000 barrels a day in 2017. And their production very much affects prices. Keep driving your car, hypocrite.

I wish the democrats would quit protecting the environment from drilling and fracking. Bunch of terrorist sponsors not letting us drill the out of the ocean and our bountiful oil reservoirsWe don't need the Saudi's, we just keep propping them up by buying their oil and selling them weapons because they're our 'friends'.
(They're not out friends)

You're basically saying that you're OK with selling weapons to and buying oil from a known terrorist regime so that we can cock-block another known terrorist regime.

We've already seen the region go up into flames because of poor leadership. The Saudis want to develop a good relationship with us. They need us. They're sitting on a huge amount of oil that if it went offline would make our prices spike. I'm 100% for energy independence here but we also have to insure stability for the rest of the world. Or do you prefer an unstable world with the potential of war at any moment? And throw Russia and China into that mix too.We don't need the Saudi's, we just keep propping them up by buying their oil and selling them weapons because they're our 'friends'.

Enjoying yourself?The American explosion of natural gas is truly a miracle!
I tell you, I tell you, I'm telling you now, maybe now we can shed the heathens from our midst, I'm telling you.
Each and every one of you that works in the oil fields, the natural gas fields in our great nation, GOD GAVE THIS TO US.
the Saudis, can I get an AMEN.
the Iraqis, can I get an AMEN.
Canada, can I get an AMEN.
Great Britain, can I get an AMEN.
But God on Holy came down, and he said, suck Russia's dick, he said it to me, he said it loud and clear, Russia, Russia!!!

No Obama is no longer president lulz
Like it or not we're the world's policeman. As long as Saudi Arabia and Iran are enemies, as long as we're Israel's ally, as long as there's a Strait of Hormuz, we'll be engaged in the Middle East. I didn't create all of this, just pointing out the obvious. But I guess you just want to bury your head in the sand and pretend the world is a very different place.I am, because you can't make a coherent point.
You're here, you're there.
Honestly, I'm starting to think DIDO is correct: you'll defend Trump and his idiot actions no matter what the situation is.
(That was an editorial comment - based on opinion, not on fact, keep that in mind)
Tell me again why we should keep propping up Saudi Arabia when we have the means to just kick them to the curb?
You say, 'IRAN', I say BS.
If we weren't over there, we wouldn't have a problem.
We've been over there consistently since before WWI, and it's really not working out.
Just saying.

How would you do better?man o man
I'm not burying anything, there are multiple ways we could address this, but we just keep paying off the mafia.
My position is that we can do better than what we've been doing.
YMMV
How would you do better?
No problem with that. However Nazi Germany and Imperial Japan weren't fires we started. If we had disengaged then the world would be a very different place and would've ended up on our shores eventually. Take America completely out of the mix and we have numerous bad actors, 3 in particular, that'll soon shape the world in a very different way. You're in denial if you believe otherwise.Be the country that I thought it actually was when I was nine, watching GI-JOE and TRANSFORMERS.
End of Story.
Guy, we've been over other countries, Catholic Priest style, forever, since before you or I were born.
It isn't working.
Seems to me that we're in bondage, eternally tasked to put out the fires that we created.
Maybe stop setting so many fires.
We're still (for now) the richest country in the world.
Instead of all of these misadventures, how 'bout we take care of our own people, and use our Army for humanitarian adventures?
Just a thought.

A wall will not protect against bio or chemical attack. Genghus Khan Counter to wall was breached by catapulting dead bodies over the wall infecting the defenders with disease.I'm a big fan of sentimental liberalism , i struggle with the application
for application understanding we can I suppose make the argument that we created an Isis with our invasion of Iraq.
the invasion of Iraq was probably a chained reaction to Iraq not complying with the ceasefire directives of persian gulf one
persian gulf one was a result of Iraq invading its neighbor.
So in application do we ignore when a terror country invades another country
and do we ignore when a growing terrorist force is not only threatening us but the world?
and if we will now ignore all this do then hunker down with the understanding that some day those despots and terrorist organizations will find us and attack us.
by building up our national defensese to include a massive border wall?
or following the concept of sentimental liberalism do we believe that if we use our military to do nice things that no one will harm us?
