[QUOTE="Glocktogo, post: 1793498, member: 1132"] The US has a history of putting on the white gloves [U]after[/U] our hands are already dirty. We support corrupt regimes when they benefit us and try to topple those that don't. This invariably results in some form of "limited warfare" where we're trying to "win hearts and minds" in a place we've already expressed our "regional interests" and failed. Iran, Korea, Vietnam, Cuba, Grenada, Panama, Dominican Republic, Afghanistan, Iraq, Somalia and Lybia are some examples. More telling are the places we've definitively NOT intervened (Rwanda, etc.). How the world views America can be dismissed as "jealousy" or "they hate us because of our freedom", but not effectively. :( [/QUOTE]
