For over 200 years, the United States have fought against the forces of Totalitarianism on nearly every continent on the globe.
Let 2013 be the year we officially cut all ties and embargo any known haven for Autocrats, Tyrants, and Dictators.
We need not compromise the ideals of which this nation was founded by dealing with the remaining cadre of worldwide despots, which only serves to entrench and legitimize their power.
It is currently the public position of the U.S.A. not to negotiate with terrorists, let us extend that to Dictators as well.
