I understand the need for the us to sacrifice somewhat in order to tame the bigger bad. However, the us is operating from weakness here which is not okay and the situation should have never been allowed to develop to this point. Ironically it may be outsourcing and offshoring in the first place that led us here. US critical infrastructure development should not be outsourced to countries who have any contact with countries that are we are in a proxy war with.
