God damn confusing me with facts....

but the only reason this happens is because these countries are run by corrupt dictators who can be destabalised..

or wait I suppose if we cannot bribe the leader of the country we just support the leader of the rebels/opposition to allow them to overthrown the leader and then we get what we want..

hmmmm

Lets see if they can become civilized this time.....

Easy for you to say when it's not your children and family being massacred when they have nothing to do with it.
