Hell no! How about fixing problems at home first before worrying about the pathetic countries? Let them kill each other for all I care!

A duty? No. But if a neighboring country asks us for help to fight for their freedom, we should offer some type of assistance but not the lives of American soldiers.

Absolutely. History is rife with examples of countries that follow the isolationist path and put off a small problem only to have to face it after it has become much worse. In the past geographical properties could shield countries but that is no longer possible with technology today. What is the alternative? Let the countries around you become autocratic dictatorships like those that exist in North Korea, Iran and Myanmar today? If you do it will only be a matter to time before they turn their weapons your way and attempt to bring you under their control. The best solution is to hit first, hit fast and hit often.

No Mexicans need to fight for themselves...on the streets of Mexico City, NOT Los Angeles!

"Let them take care of them selves", will be the new battle cry of the liberal left. I do not think so. In the movie "Grapes of Wrath", Henry Fonda says that where ever their is a fight or a guy being cheated, he will be there. This is the motto of the liberal left.

A duty NO. The U.S. must fight when America's safety or interests are involved though.

We (The USA and other wealthy and civilized nations) have a moral obligation to confront tyranny and genocide and deliver freedom and justice to the oppressed...yes

Morally it would be the right thing to do. Plus we don't want neighboring countries abutting us that aren't free!

Not in Canada they don't.
America will never have the freedoms we have so there is nothing to fight for.
(We perceive America like the government when they say, "we are hear to help")

No. An interest, perhaps, but not a duty.
