Thinking out loud

Whats happened to this country I love ? We let the Russians shoot down a U2 and put the pilot in jail and we do nothing for a few years then we swap a spy for him. We let North Korea take one of our ships and what do we do talk talk diplomacy till we get the crew out and then let them keep the ship. The radio ship USS Liberty fling and American flag is fired on and we do nothing. The embassy is bombed killing 250 Marines and we did nothing put up stop strips. The embassy in Iran is taken over and American citizens are held hostage and we did nothing. Black Hawk down where an Americans body is drug through the streets and mutilated and we did nothing. And on and on and on. WTF happened to this country I love

At least Regan after Lockerbee Bomb Kadafi even though the English didn't want a flyover their country

That was France that denied flyover permission , not the Brits

Maybe I should have titled the thread using this statement.

I wonder how others feel about what I'm saying and if anyone see anyway to turn it around. The rest of the world wouldn't like my way but I'm a soldier and believe we should way anyway you can

How about you suggest what we should do or have done? Feel free to start with the U2 shoot down. You know the one where we were overflying another country without permission. I'm interested in hearing our op plan for the invasion of Russia and extraction of the pilot.
