Well no, not my point. I meant everyone seems to be saying "WW III has started" from this. My point is that this isn't anything new. There was just a 4 year gap while Trump was president.
It's not good by any stretch of the imagination, and I agree with what you said, but It's hardly an invasion of Poland or Assassination of Archduke Ferdinand.
We have invaded many countries over the years -- it's practically a miracle we haven't had a hot world war 3 yet.
But it's because one side keeps pushing (U.S., NATO) and everyone else is saying "stop doing that or we will participate in a war". Eventually that balloon is going to pop, that straw will cripple the camel, etc.
Interventionalism makes us many enemies and weakens our country.
Staying in Afghanistan was par for almost 20 years, so I guess what was the big deal there?

Um, the US was fighting in Syria and Iraq when Trump was president.
A few other places too.
