I mostly agree with you.

(I didn't spell out how much I agree because being against Israel is a sure way to attract downvotes. But let me do it anyway: Israel has no right to exist and never did in modern times. The people Israel stole the land to not only have the right to the land because they were, you know, there and the Jewish invaders weren't -- they were also genetic heirs to ancient Israelis to a higher degree than the Jewish invaders were. I think it is disgraceful that Israel has so much influence over US politics and media (USS Liberty cover up!). I think it is disgraceful that Germany backs Israel to the extent it does -- in order to not be, or be perceived as, evil.

Where I don't agree so much is about the US and Asia. The US had every right to fight in Korea and it was a damn good thing it did. It also had a right to fight against the Viet Cong -- and it was a disaster for the Vietnamese when the Viet Cong conquered Southern Vietnam and caused a mass famine with their collective farming.)
