Cheers Alccode, good commentary! I agree with all your points.
Just a side note, maybe I should have written more clearly about the lecture. The "powerful argument" the speaker gave was that the US was moving toward a more aggressive stance on foreign policy, NOT on why this is a good course of action to take; indeed, if he had wanted to sway the audience to this effect, I think it had the opposite effect! |
Thanks! Good to hear we're on the same wavelength. 
I see that I totally misunderstood the lecture that you attended, thanks for correcting me. Kind of surprising that the speaker was lecturing on that subject - as if one needed "proof" that the US is pursuing a more "aggressive stance" on foreign policy!
j/k - I'm aware s/he was just presenting a good observation. In any case I am totally for it! It is good to raise awareness about global political issues such as this.
