Fact: The US may have created Sadam Hussein in the early 1960's when is supported the Baath party's rise to power.
Fact: The US supported Sadam Hussein during the 80's. Fact: The US supported and armed the Mujahadeen in the 80's against the Soviet-backed Afghan government. Fact: The US backed out of Afghanistan when the Soviets left, and years of turmoil followed. Fact: They have turned those weapons on us, and on their own people, commiting horrible atrocities. What no one will say, or refuses to see is an ugly concept: Do not aid third world nations militarily; offer them little aid in anything save humanitarian. If we strictly adhere to the French idea that the younger a 'civilized' nation is, the more irresponsible it is, we conclude that third world nations will act irresponsibly with support and materiel. People often speak of haves and have-nots, but it's very important to make the have-nots realize that most of what the haves have is complete, utter, extraneous, non-essential bullshit. They should not accept aid from first-world countries, and should politely tell any businesses from them "no". This is an incomplete thought process, but I just wanted to stir the anthill, and see what comes pouring out.
