    it's not just that Jimmy. With modern technologies the rest of the world can be minutes away and minor players can wield serious problems for all. Though it might be fanciful to withdraw into a cocoon the world around us will not allow that.

    During the start of WWll there was a substantial pacifist movmt in this country even after Pearl Harbor. Stop and think if we had not gotten involved back then. Germany would have overrun Europe and Japan all of East Asia and Germany would have developed nuclear weapons way ahead of us with missile technology. How long would it have been before a strengthened Germany and Japan attacked us? Hitler was not full of surprises. He said exactly what he wanted to do before the war and did exactly what he said.

    A really wrong decision made at the wrong time can exact a heavy price tag down the road.
