I'm sure the ME (military dictators excepted) would welcome a little more US isolationism. It's the western military-industrial complex that would never agree to US withdrawal back to within its own borders. Corporatism is dependent on imperialism.
Only when it served western interests to jump ship from the losing side. No gratitude deserved. A bit like Iraq and Afghanistan, the west creates monsters (Saddam/Taliban) because it's in their geo-political interests to do so, then, when those monsters appear to be on the point of self-immolation, they switch sides and expect everyone to believe they are acting according to some mythical ethical foreign policy. I'm afraid that much of the world, not just the Islamic part, can sniff political expediency and cynical self-interest a mile off.
For the film maker cowardice certainly was in play.

You do know the difference in using Monsters as opposed to creating them.....Right? :roll:
Ah, yes. Corporations are inspiring Islamic terrorism. It had to come to that eventually.
No one is questioning our right to freedom of speech.. but if someone cursed your mother as a immoral dog, would you punch them in the nose?
I do.

No, I would walk away from them.
That is one of the things that separates those such as myself from you Islamist supremacists.
How about for any Muslim that cannot handle an affront personally?
So then you do understand the concept as to what takes place after the USE is no longer needed.....Correct?
What do you do when they don't let you walk away?
Yup. Military-industrial corporations control US foreign policy, drone attacks on civilians included.
How many Muslims are there in the world? Over a billion I believe..
Does that give you some perspective?

"In this respect," NightWatch added, "she did not defend US sovereign territory and betrayed her oath of office. She neutered the Marines posted to defend the embassy, trusting the Egyptians over the Marines.”
I don't understand your point at all. What's the USE?
From the link:
So, the ambassador put her own life in jeopardy by not allowing the guards to be armed.
and, in this case (we seem to have two separate incidents being discussed in this thread, which is getting confusing), the casualty was an American flag.
How about in the incident in Libya, where the casualties were human beings? I wonder if the guards there were allowed to really guard anything?
Yes, there are over a billion of you and untold hundreds of millions of you want your religion to reign supreme so fervently that you cannot handle any criticism and so go on rampages any time somebody whips you into a frenzy over some obscure little idiotic film or cartoon or some such. Meanwhile, you absolutely refuse to offer the same deference to others that you expect for yourself, thus giving the impression of pampered children who throw tantrums at any provocation, but are quite willing to indulge in the very provocations you react to without any conscience at all.
It's time grow up. Deal with it and stop running around like spoiled children.
That's what the propagandists tell you.......
