Historically speaking our dealings with countries have fucked us over, a proper metaphor is "getting in bed with the wrong people". Lets see we have Saddam, the Shah, the mujahadeen, our dealings with the Saud family seems to do a good job of pissing people off, lord knows that school of the America's and all those South American governments we got behind were shady as all kinds of hell, Uzbekistan, Guinea, our weapons deals with those crazies out in East Timor. Also I'm sure I've left some out too.
Next time I guess I will just have to elaborate.

Mojo- I agree your post was not a troll....but, the last part of your post hits it on the head. I think the one liners do have the effect of setting a tone of anamosity. That is certainly not to say they lack content, as I actually find quite a bit of meaning in the majority of your posts.
We will each take what we want from a short statement (like the one above) and twist it to our own designs. Perhaps giving more meat to the opinion will avoid misunderstanding, and help to prevent pissy comebacks.
Just so you understand where I am coming from, I actually depend on your posts for a spesific viewpoint that is underrepresented here. Thus I very much appreciate that you participate.
