Why does everything need to be predicated by an "invasion"? Surely the world's "greatest military" and "richest nation" can airlift food over the region?
I can understand how it wouldn't be politically expedient to invade a country, but the world opinion would certainly not condemn us if we demonstrated our motives were purely humanitarian by our actions.
