This is what the neo cons dont get...To most third world countries this is what they see...

China sends engineers and merchants..new road ,new Dams,new business...more money,more peace

The US sends spies and commandos..New rebel groups get armed and trained or old dictators get reinforced...more violence,more oppression

give it another couple of years and youll see whose President starts getting a cold reception when they visit those countries.

This is the thinking mans conundrum; On one side I strictly oppose imperial interests and actions globally but on the other side I must acknowledge that we all live off the fruits of the empire.
