United States and Terrorism

:picard:

How many people running their yaks in this thread have actually

a) been in actual combat, with bullets and/or RPGs flying

b) Have been anywhere in the world that was not a vacation spot secluded from reality

How many people here have actually seen foreign policy abroad? And I’m not talking about watching Fox News and CNN talking heads either. How many people understand the underhanded bullshit that the US has to deal with, and then shape their foreign policy with?
