Dana Rohrabacher vs. McCain and Graham

February 7, 2014 By Richard C. Young

Congressman Dana Rohrabacher

John McCain and Lindsey Graham are out beating the war drums once again. And Congressman Dana Rohrabacher correctly explains that the media gives the Senators too much exposure. Here you read from Pat Buchanan how the pressures for war are once again building despite the fact that America’s vital interests are not at stake.

Twice since last summer, anti-interventionists have routed the War Party. First, with the popular uprising that swamped calls for strikes on Syria. Second, with this winter’s blockage of new sanctions on Iran that could have torpedoed negotiations.

Yet in both cases the anti-interventionists succeeded because Obama has never at heart been a war president. And because the country does not want any more wars.

A sign of the times was ex-Reagan speech writer and veteran Congressman Dana Rohrabacher telling C-SPAN the U.S. media give too much time to McCain and Graham, who do not speak for the Republican Party when they call for military action. They speak only for themselves.

Yet, despite the victories of the anti-interventionists, the United States remains a hostage to war. Dating back to the early years of the Cold War, in the 1950s, we signed treaties obligating us to fight for scores of nations on five continents. NATO alone now requires us to defend 25 European countries, from Iceland to Estonia.

How many of these war guarantees are vital to U.S. security?

How many of these treaties, which could require us to go to war with nuclear-armed powers like Russia and China over tiny islets and minuscule nations half a world away, are truly in America’s national interest?
