(62,325 posts)because we can't show our own faces in the ME anymore after Iraq. Hillary even boasted about the 'new way to fight wars' using 'proxy armies' you know, from the dictatorships we support like Qatar and Bahrain and of course the Saudis who finance and supply 'insurgents'.
We did not stop a war in Syria. The British Parliament, finally had enough and said 'no way' after which without our closest Imperial ally, the US had to do an about face.
If you want proof, we have plenty of videos of Kerry et al pushing for 'intervention' to 'save the poor people of Syria' knowing full well that our buddies the Saudis were killing those poor people. The Brits couldn't ignore the proof that they were, would be, arming the most extreme terrorists who were responsible for the ongoing conflict there and their own people are still OUTRAGED over the lies that got them into Iraq.
Let's not rewrite history especially when the facts are so easily accessible.
We are never going to stop these wars, we are everywhere, in Africa, in the ME and we are still trying to get back to S. America, unless someone else stops us. The Brits did it with Syria. Hopefully for the sake of the lives at stake, someone will put an end to these insane wars.
