To the editor:

I am not an isolationist but I must insist that we get out of the Middle East completely for at least three years and cut all, that’s all, funding and arms to Middle Eastern countries including Israel. They must be made to solve their own problems, especially in regard to ISIS or ISIL.

Saudi Arabia who has funded more terrorists than Fox can count could put 50,000 troops in the field tomorrow, as could Iraq, Iran, Jordan and Turkey, but they will not as long as they believe that we are suckers enough to do it for them. In the next three years, thousands of innocent human beings will be caught up and killed in this ludicrous situation, and we should have no part of it. The U.S. has enough blood on our hands to last several centuries. The billions of dollars saved should be spent here at home rebuilding schools, hospitals, bridges and roads.
