“The United States should not — and cannot — intervene every time there’s a crisis somewhere in the world. But I firmly believe that when innocent people are being brutalized; when someone like Gadhafi threatens a bloodbath that could destabilize an entire region; and when the international community is prepared to come together to save many thousands of lives — then it’s in our national interest to act.”
(unless it happens to be in Yemen, where the action we're taking in our "national interest" is to have our special forces arm and train the military of the oppressive regime.)
