The Obama Effect?

Mona's last paragraph says it all. Talk will not work with Iraq, Iran, North Korea or any other trouble spot. However, I've thinking about the idea of sovereignty. Granted these are bad folks and they are a danger to the entire planet BUT a benevolent bully is still a bully. I wonder if we are right to try to force our beliefs on other countries. Better I think to be quietly supportive of democratic movements where they might spring up and to bolster our own national defenses to meet the threat that is almost surely coming.
