    Avoid military action without the expressed endorsement of the UN Security Council, for example, bombing of Yugoslavia.

      That’s a great example of something they shouldn’t have done, not some they should have done. Believe me, there’s plenty of intervention that I wish the military and intelligence communities hadn’t done, but the way the comment is framed, it seems like this person is implying we should have done more, not less.

        It’s about how it should be done. Whether there should be more or fewer interventions is moot. It’s about building a world order where nations don’t feel like usa is untrustworthy. Maybe through a rules based process like UN security council.
