In response to "A no-fly rule is basically good news, but the logic behind justifying it sounds like half-assed fence sitting and can kicking to me." by Max

What pisses me off is that the expectation is the US will lead and do the heavy lifting.

I'm getting tired of hearing from people here at home and the UN that the US *must* be the one to solve the world's problems.

Americans whine we we go to war and they whine if we don't go to war fast enough.

The world pisses and moans when we go to war for our own reasons and piss and moan if we don't go to war for their reasons.
