Bosnia was a NATO mission.
Haiti was a threat as streams of refugees were landing on our land. It was not an invasion, merely a police action and if I recall, it was a UN effort.
Gemany declared war on us! Italy was their ally.
Got any more really stupid non-sequiturs?
Bosnia was an invasion that did NOT have UN approval.
If it was ok since NATO approved it,then you MUST use the same logic and say the Iraq war is legal and ok,since more countries supported and aided in the Iraq war then there are countries in NATO.
Haiti was no threat to us.
We didnt have to accept those refugees.We could have turned them around,allowed them to die at sea,sent them to another country,or done a number of other things.
Germany and Italy did declare war,but we didnt have to attend.
They are to far away,and they didnt have the power to reach us or attack us.
We could have just ignored them.Instead,Roosevelt CHOSE to go to war.
So I ask again,what IMMEDIATE threat were they to us?
