..they usually start in Europe, or as the result of some old Euro imperialism in the 3rd world, and we are pleaded to enter the fray on one side or the other. Democratic presidents seem to succumb more often to the appeals for participation more often than GOP Presidents do.

For the 1st time the US starts it's own war overseas...suddenly it's "illegal", whereas all those other wars were "legal". LOL!

I guess it's to be expected. US armies have almost never fought for the needs of their OWN country and have been mercenaries for Europe's weaker nations.
