No, the job of the military nowadays is to maintain the status quo and remind us that the US government can fuck with anyone, anytime it wants to.

you'd know that half of these "tin-pot dictators" were put into power by our government.
Only a few, without a peep from France or Germany. And besides, aren't we responsible for fixing our mistakes?

Furthermore, if the UN were as fervent about enforcing their resolutions as you'd like them to be, WWIII would have started- against us- about 15-20 years ago.
That would be the era known as the Cold War which I pointed out. And how would WW3 have started when the UN was created to specifically avoid that?

My point was that it has out lived its usefulness. It can't enforce its own resolutions and when it does (coughsomaliacough) it half asses them and handcuffs its own people to keep them from doing anygood (hackbosniahack).
