Two videos below. First, last night's donnybrook with sneering interventionist globalist Max Boot, who has been wrong about virtually everything but just gets more militantly arrogant with every fresh failure.

Then, an interview from two nights ago with Ralph Peters.

Both men are basically still peddling the line that virtually brought the GOP to bankruptcy in 2008 (and swept Barack Hussein Obama into the White House): that America is duty-bound to pursue a naive moralism in foreign policy, with our moralism enforced with lots of US troops, and, worse yet, lots of dead and permanently maimed US troops.

And to object to that -- to say "I don't know if this is worth an American man's legs, and I can't agree, based on the recent record, that putting American targets on the ground for terrorists to murder does much for 'nation-building' and 'democracy-spreading'" -- is to be a "cheerleader for Putin."

This argument is one that's been a long time coming, and I'm glad that Carlson is bringing it out into the open, prominently.
