In what way would that serve our national interest?
Probably the same way that the pollys are just coming to the conclusion that Russia is still a threat, and they have dropped the ball. So we can stick our heads up our @rse just like we have done before and say, okay not our problem, until it happens to another, opps, then another, then we are forced into it.
It always starts out small, nip the fire in the butt whilst its small, just be very careful about what your throwing on it.
