Biggest problem with misuse & abuse of US military power is it leaves us w/out moral authority to apply it when it’s the right thing to do. We should use force when:US is directly threatened, an ally directly threatened, or humanitarian order of the world is directly threatened.

Yessss! We need to use our heavy international weight to guide a diplomatic and peaceful foreign policy.
We need to put far more emphasis on peace-creation (which for the most part we hardly do at all). Peace is not the absence of war; war is the absence of peace. Peacebuilding is achieved through humanitarian and educational support, particularly when applied to women and children.

YES. I just watched your interview with
@RubinReport where you discussed amending and atoning for civil rights. Your point about us needing to close the gap rang in my head for days. I feel we need to approach our foreign policy in much the same way. Apologize, atone, heal.
