"I've seen the news casters making the situation in Iran about how involved the government is getting in this situation. Didn't we do that mistake already? Shouldn't we fix our problems first?"

We're speaking out and showing a lack of support in the regime's treatment of the Iranian people. We aren't going to war with them.

...yet.

Not saying we should, just saying I think we will.

"That's my point.

Americans first demand that the president speaks out. Then when nothing changes, "we" expect the president to interfere.

It's happened before.

America isn't in the position to save the world at the moment. Don't get me wrong, I'm all for America helping in world peace-- but not when it's self destructive. I feel that involving America in this situation, in the long run, will get us in a deep hole that we, again, have to dig ourselves out of. We aren't ready to do this (again) yet.

Does WW2 count?

Ooh! The Cold War! We saved the world from Communism. 3nodding

Does failing to destroy the world count as saving it? Because we DON'T push the button every day.

No individual has, but America did more than once.
