National interests and security need honest definition
Charley Reese argues national security and national interests are vague terms used by politicians. He recalls mobilizing for Sudan over oil ties, contrasts with Afghanistan, and states clear national aims: freedom of seas, independence, health, education, productive agriculture, and strong manufacturing. Minding our own business is his last aim.
