Yeah, you are right. I bolded the above because that is exactly what is and has happened. Is that fault created by the U.S. due to the many occurrences of minding other countries business in the past? They look at us for the answer but we shouldn't and certainly don't have it every time.

I used to feel the US should just stay out of it. None of our business, we have enough problems.

Then I watched China and Russia buy up soft influence all over the world in just a matter of a few years to fill the void we left by not being there. I certainly see the benefit of being in other countries business. I do think we need to avoid backing and arming militia groups. That tends to blow up in our face just about every time.
