Negotiation and serious rhetoric trump any irrational wars made by war mongers. International Law is suppoded to enforce its rules. More than 4000 lives and even more from the toxic contaminated aftermath were lost on September 11, 2003 when G.W. Bush and his administration intentionally chose to ignore the Muslim warning that something terrible would happen to America if its military bases weren't removed from Saudi Arabia.
But dear one's, at that time the U.S. Iraq-invasion leaders were instead fixated on exterminating Saddam Hussein who made chemical deals with America and was maintaining order in that sovereign nation that never attacked the United States. Now that the same administration occupied Iraq and Afghanistan it is unstable and out of control. And there was no independent investigation of the "born again" president who heard voices that "God" told him to go war in these countries.
In the Second Boar War that ended in 1902 against the British, Dutch Paulus Kruger of Transvaal in South Africa kept a Bible with him at all times. Before he made any political decision he would open his book at random and the first verse he read was what he trusted to commit anything.
Because Bush refused to talk and negotiate with the Muslims he called "evil doers," America suffered greatly from neglect and no negotiation as the president and his staff instead planned to take control of oil by an oil pipe line in Afghanistan while bombing Iraq in a smoke screen. This Tea Party violation of International Law was not enforced.
The cost of lives and trillions of dollars from 9-11 and the wrong-doing Iraqi-Afghanistan war and its aftermath cost millions of lives and trillions of dollars.
The Benghazi bombing cost four lives with political investigations costing tax payers escalating money as I write. An ounce of prevention is worth a pound of cure in any nation.
