First Afghanistan, now Iraq. So who's next? Syria? North Korea? Iran? Where will it all end?' If these illegal interventions are permitted to continue, the implication seems to be, pretty soon, horror of horrors, no murderously repressive regimes might remain.

About This Quote

The United States is intervening in the Middle East. Usually this would have a negative impact on the people of the Middle East, but many people are still hopeful that these interventions will be limited to areas that are less important. The idea that the United States is going to be involved in every conflict is very disturbing because it means that they will be more likely to get involved in things that are not as important. For example, if the United States were to get involved in a war with North Korea or Syria, these conflicts would likely last for a long time and could cause a lot of damage to the people of those countries.
