My connection is too slow view this, so I'll have to pass.
But I do have a novel idea. Let's examine the historical criteria that 'justifies' the invasions performed by America. Maybe we could use this to determine who is 'worthy' of our next intervention.
Since America loves to 'establish democracy' around the world, creating 'freedoms' for oppressed peoples, I suggest we deploy the US military to invade an oppressed nation of people who do not live under the auspices of democracy, hmmm, let's see, that would have to be ......... America!
Moreover, since it is a 'policy' of the US to topple evil dictators, particulary those that illegally invade other countries, and especially if they have any resources we may be interested in, then the next country that would have to be at the top of the invasion list is a country who is illegally invading, ruling by dictatorship, abundant in resources, hmmmm, that would have to be .......... America!
And since the US is known to overthrow the evil banana republics that dared to elect their own officials, declaring themselves somehow exempt from US policies, hmmm, the country that best fits this requrement is....... America!
And since America is also well known to overthrow the governments of any nations that oppose it's supreme will and dictates by assassination, murder, economic destruction and overthrow, the only country name that I can think of is that is presently opposing the supreme will and dictates of America, is, hmmmm ....... America!
And since the resources to invade are already here, then there won't be any need to transport large quantities of goods or troops for the invasion, errr, well, I guess we might have a little problem after all. But hey, that's four out of five very good reason to invade America!
Remember, the liberated survivors will welcome us with open arms, clamoring for a true democracy and the opportunity to finally be free of their oppressors and evil government officials. They might even have free and honest elections! Imagine that! And the new puppet government, well golly gee, we could appoint one of our own! It would be so easy!
However, I do strongly suggest we refrain from using depleted-uranium weapons, 'shock-and-awe' bombing campaigns, oil-for-food exchanges, bombing of hospitals, depriving of medicines or the assassination of doctors and journalists. Oh, and torture too, it's bad for publicity.
Such tactics if employed again are bound to get the natives a bit riled up.
