No Stephen,
The bottom line is that certain people needed invading: Cortez invading Mexico, the American Indians needed invading ... Joshua invading Israel, and life goes on.
You can't refute, so you resort to liberal arguments

Why did the Indians need invading and genocide? Why the Canaanites? Why the Chinese in the '30s and '40s? Why South Korea by the North (Fake) Koreans? Why Ukraine? Why Israel, several times? Why Kuwait? Why Iraq in 2003?
The fact is that there were a lot of needless invasions throughout history.
of course some people need invading: the people who invade (or at least their leaders). some times a local group called for invasion to resolve disagreement (as in Scotland).
your point is still bullshit.
Nebukadnezzar invading Israel, the Hebrews needed invading.
Saladin invading Jerusalem, the Crusaders needed invading.
Genghis Khan invading Europe, the Europeans needed invading.
Hitler invading East Europe, the Slavs and Jews needed invading.
The UN invading America, the Americans needed invading.
The Martians invading Earth, Humanity needed invading.
A peaceful people, in their own land, need invading exactly.......why?
Clearly you need invading, and a good beating over the head with a history book.
What the hell did the Native Americans do to deserve to be kicked off their land, have their culture destroyed, and be moved to the worst lands in the country? What did they gain from it aside from having their land taken away, their people killed, and the highest per capita poverty rate? Forget "liberal arguments" or "conservative arguments", what HUMAN argument do you have for slaughtering people who did nothing to the aggressors? Or maybe that's the problem. Maybe you are one of those "might is right" assholes who thinks anyone that simply minds their own business is just asking for it.
Whatever your reasons, you are nothing but a bully and if the universe was just someone would invade YOUR home and when you ask them why they'd reply "Certain homes need invading. Life goes on.".

Wonder why he didn't include Spain by the Caliphate, or Asia Minor by the Turks...
Those were conquered by a horde of unscrupulous and fanatical invaders and barbarians that took the land from its rightful owners. What he's talking about is heroic conquerors that liberated lands from the hands of savages for the glory of God. Two different things, obviously.

It's good if Our Side is doing the invading.

Well, I personally believe the stinking State of Mississippi should be invaded, flushed down the toilet, thoroughly disinfected with a major hurricane of undiluted Lysol, and then turned over to any illegal immigrants who want to stay in the US. Mississippi needs invading.
It drives me crazy how these people think. They provide a bald faced assertion ("certain people needed invading") with no justification whatsoever and then say you can't refute them.
Try fucking justifying what you say and then watch how you get refuted.
What are your criteria for "needing invasion"? Did the Aztecs pose a threat to Spain, or the Native Americans to the Europeans? No; maybe threat is not the issue. Maybe it's just that they contributed to how the world has turned out. So Poland "needed invading" by Hitler and Stalin.
Groups which are reviled and under constant attack occasionally produce people who resolve their personal conflicts by becoming their own group's greatest attackers: the Israelis have Gilad Atzmon and the Palestinians have Walid Shoebat.

Conservative Redneck response:
"Bring it on!"
They only talk the brave armchair general talk because they believe that massive military complex can handle any comers.
It's not just that these hicks believe this nuking much of the world is a sensible option to not pledging subservience to America, it's that they have many officials in congress and the pentagon that are proposing this redneck shitstorm.
"The bottom line is that certain people needed invading: Cortez invading Mexico,"
Mexican migrants invading the southern states...
Confused?
