Middle East Still Fighting

Over the past two or three years the United States military has started to send almost all of the deployed soldiers back here to America. This is a great for all of the military families who have to wait and worry about their loved ones overseas. The worst thing about all of this is that ever since we have pulled out of the Middle Eastern countries terrorist attacks have gone up and some politicians believe that maybe we should stay a bit longer.

                This post kind of ties in with my very first blog post about the United States being the “World’s Cop” and that we have to babysit all of the other troubled countries around the world. I am still sticking with what I said my first blog post by saying that we should just stay out of these troubled countries around the world. The United States would have to stay in that country for a million years to make sure that these areas were safe. It is not worth our time, money, and effort to help a country that, 1.) Would never help us in return, and 2.) Probably never fully pay us back for everything that we have given them. America has not only given these nations our money and supplies but we have given our own blood to protect these nations that seem like will never be in peace, EVER!

                I think the main reason that we have invested so much time in these areas is because of the major oil industry that they have established in countries like Iran, Saudi Arabia, and Iraq. Without that we would have no reason to intervene in their affairs. This entire region would be the wealthiest region in the entire world if they stopped fighting. The oil is plentiful and they would make billions if not trillions on that alone.

                Again, I think we should just stay out of all the chaos that comes with these Middle Eastern countries. No matter how hard we try I do not think there is a solution to the major conflicts that arise out of this disputed region. Let us just mind our own business and worry about our own people before we decide to intervene with people from another country.
