Indeed. One normally hopes the police are impartial. World policing is more
of a protection racket.

It is good to see you agreeing with the libertarians on some things.

Yes, but I do NOT agree with being quoted out of context.

So anytime I quote you, I must quote every utterance to ever come from your
lips?

Did I say that - No. Do I want that - No.

Get real.

I am very real.

What makes you think your country would only help the good guys? Has our
countries not a history of helping the bad guys?

If we were preventing missiles from impacting, regardless of the nation that
was being helped, we would be helping the people -- they are mostly good • guys.

Perhaps the bad guys can pay to protect their people against the impacting
missiles of the US & their friends?

I would be in favor that arrangement under certain circumstances.  It does seem
a bit too close to profiteering on death for normal comfort though.
