Well since its likely that the worlds next nuclear event will be a terrorist event and the perpetrators will likely be from that region and the victims will likely live in New York, Washington, London Paris or Berlin i would say that it is Americas problem. I could go on and on and on but why bother?
Not sure about our newb here, bro. A little too pat to be a genuine conservative American doin' the Isolationist gig.
I'd think, however, that we have more to fear from our run-amok intelligence services than wild-eyed religious fanatics.
No. I say if we cleaned out the darkside of our own establishment we would not be anybody's target.
It's time for the principles of Locke, of the Magna Carta.... and of the genuine renaissance that propelled the West to some great accomplishments arising from the bare-boned reality of actual human liberty.

I know it will be a tough sale in the middle east, which measures "good" by all the presumptions folks can lump into "Allah", but it's no easy sale either with the religious progressives who love so much being their own damn God.
Human beings have innate rights, and deserve every right they hope for, including

Rascals.
These were the folks who had their men installed in the colonies as "government" who tried to make the point about who is the boss of who.
nah.
We don't want Facebook paying Snopes or Wikipedia to create a new programmed knowledge base to sweep skeptics outta sight in social media, nor do we like Xi's sort of China with everybody monitored for everything they say online as the basis for sending the paddy wagons around to collect the derelicts in need of "re-education".
If there is a brave new world with a bluer sky ahead, it will come from dumping our present elites and going back to Locke.
So Trump tried to form a cabinet in an inclusive manner, bringing in folks representative of various elements of our present government, tried including "establishment" folks. It didn't work because no one really wanted to work with him.
Dunno what he can do without them. Maybe not much. But Mattis even said he deserves to have people who will support him. Mattis is merely jumping ship, expecting to be picked up by the Good Olde HMS Council of Foreign Relations.
