Without a meddling USA.

I'd like to turn back the clock. Maybe 15 years. To before the U.S. invaded Iraq. And really started meddling full-scale in the Middle East. In essence, we broke it. And never fixed it. Made the situation far worse than if we had left well enough alone. And allowed the Middle East nations to fix themselves. We'll never know. But I suspect the Middle East autocratic rulers, such as Saddam Hussein, would have taken iron-fisted control. And forced some reasonable degree of orderliness. Exactly what the Middle East needs. The people there aren't suited for Western-style ways of living and governing. They should be allowed to go their own unique Middle Eastern ways. If they want to obliterate each other, that's fine with me. But I'd like to think. That some day, they would find ways to live in peace and harmony. On their own. Without a meddling USA. --Jim Broede
