Which in no way justifies giving military aid to a murderous psychopath.

This is one reason why many people around the world are sick of the U.S. We so often do what is in our short-term political interest, with so little thought as to the long-term consequences, that nobody believes us when we want to do good. Can you blame Iraqis or Afghanis, who we have both aided and helped kill for decades, for viewing us skeptically?
