Roving Camera 1-16-20: Are the U.S. military’s action’s in the Middle East making Americans more safe?

I don’t think the United States being in the Middle East has anything to do with our security. We have to play a role in fulfilling the Biblical prophesy as far as Christ is concerned. — Regina Logan, Receptionist, Roxbury
A little less safe because we tend to make decisions without including the people we’re trying to protect. They should be driving the policies. We shouldn’t be doing it for them. — Keith Nolan, Social Worker, Dorchester
I think it’s debatable. I think people who are fighting there think they’re making us more safe. But you have to think about it long term. How will it be in the future? I think we’ll be less safe. — Elviro Polanco, Student, Roslindale
I agree with what Donald Trump did 100 percent. Suleimani killed thousands of Americans. He burned our embassy. — Fred Dilbert, Construction, South End
I think less safe. We started a conflict. The military isn’t safe. — Christian Cox, Custodian, Roxbury
I think it’s less safe. We’ve been trying to help for so long, but it’s not doing any good. It’s antagonizing them. — Lisa Smith, Documentation Analyst, Dorchester
