I could go along on the idea of Global Force.

Easy in theory & hard in practice. Remember there is UN and supposedly
should take care of these global issues that cut across national borders.
It couldn't work well (even peace keeping roles) because there is no
international standards uphold by all. Equally interests are different.

NATO is another we could consider here. Besides the core role of defending
the member nation against external aggression, they can hardly agree on
anything - latest example is Libya intervention (some participate some
not). In addition NATO is 80/90% America.

The other concern at least from Bill's position is to fill that force with
non Americans with American command. What's going on here? Is Gambian (any
other nationality) son/daughter expendable than American son/daughter? In
short I am troubled with the idea that they will be in the air and someone
else take the ground - at least the manner is sold!

America may not police the world nor should they pay for all these
conflicts but if America ID ISIS as a national security problem, unless
they can find someone else who view that organization the same they have to
do the job to take them out. I don't think that a problem for instance for
Gambia today. And Gambia may participate in an international effort but
when you tell us to grad the worst end.......

The Arab leaders and the trillions.......another story!
