Some people in Washington serve the oil industry, would rather see cheap oil than enhance the life style of third world peoples. If we get selfish, we get attacked. If we are attacked, we attack back. It is a mess. Shifting from an agricultural culture and government to something newer generally is. Shifting another's culture at gunpoint is hard.
We are used to being a superpower, in spreading what we are. I agree we do it too much. I understand why some individuals try. Sometimes in the process we are arrogant, selfish or otherwise let our vices show. When we do, we should expect others to respond with vices themselves.
That this nation, under God, shall have a new birth of freedom, and that government of the people, by the people, for the people shall not perish from the earth.
