George Bush talks about nation-building
This is a short clip from the October 3′rd, 2000 Presidential Debates that took place in the University of Massachusetts from Boston in which candidate Bush is criticizing the Clinton-Gore administration for being too interventionist:
The transcript: If we don’t stop extending our troops all around the world in nation-building missions, then we’re going to have a serious problem coming down the road, and I’m going to prevent that.
Why did he change his perspective? Or was he lying all along? What’s your thought on this issue?
I believe the correct spelling is;
“What are your thoughts on this?”.
I think it was a total lie all along… The neoconservatives have been pushing for just what the US is doing today in the middle east since the mid 90’s, and when they got the power, all they needed was a catalyst – Which 9/11 provided nicely.
