an ETHICAL response would say: "these people in this land with this culture have a LOT in common with us. And they also disagree on a lot...

it's not just stupid, it's morally wrong to impose our values, our way of life, our vision of politics on these people at gunpoint."

Note that this POV actually still allows for the removal of tyrants by military force, if needed---but not for US-led regime change...

And THAT'S ultimately what we have to reckon with, that's what both the conservative narrative of catastrophe and return...

and the liberal narrative of "progress" get wrong about human beings. There is no one correct endpoint for humans or for history...

(well, as a Christian I suspect their may be, but it will not be one crafted by human hands or conceived by a human mind)

rather, people groups must be self-determined, which will include authentic cultural and ethical differences. People don't WANT to end up...

with the same institutions, the same structures, same values, even the same ideas of human rights. That isn't the goal. What is the goal?
