If America wants to walk away from the Middle East then it should:
- Stop all weapons sales, financial aid, and diplomatic support to dictators, *all* dictators
- Explain how they'll ensure that the weapons they already sold to dictators won't be used against us after they leave
- Explain how they'll provide reparations to us for the decades of weapons sales, financial aid, and diplomatic support to our dictators
- Yes I'm counting Israel among the dictators because no brutal military occupation is democratic
But to arm our dictators for a century, then walk away and leave us to our fate vs dictators that have been armed to the teeth by America - that's just as racist a policy as the policy that preceded it.
Anything else is just posturing. And yes even Warren is posturing.
Hi, sorry we stabbed you repeatedly those past 70 years. We're now taking the knife out of your body and walking away. We're so good and you should be grateful. Sorry about the serial killer-rapist hovering over you who we have been training and arming for decades. Good luck!
