Foreign Policy

What calling do we have to determine the governance of other states? Why are we deciding what is right and proper for other peoples, other lands? No matter how directly such decisions affect us, we have no damned right to decide for any other people how they should govern themselves. If they're against us we can't force them not to be. We can only try to convince them to like us. We've fought wars to allow other nations to decide for themselves who they want to be; why have we wavered from that choice?

About Me

San Francisco, California, United States
I go to college now. I guess I write about things I like. I'll try and write more often in the new blog.
