And there’s still the Rebel-sympathy scenario, which while distressing to think about is tragically not exactly unprecedented.
So basically, we have no business adding soldiers or weapons to the mix, and should just be offering to get the civilians out of there, right?
Let them set up and eco-village somewhere and make their own laws, whatever, hire them to join our military and make them into part of a Peace Corps (still way cheaper than our average military intervention).
Why not shoot for an option that actually doesn’t suck?
