Vanyuwa [196]

The United States and all other countries should intervene in international conflicts when there are uprising and threats to world peace. The questions “why, when and how” should be done to decide when an intervention is necessary.

The consequences of the last US intervention created resentment, the threat of terror resulted in costly interventions, causing the spent of billion of dollars internally and externally defending and protecting other nations.
