Can't have other people acting on their own agendas like real people, can we? no, it has to be our fault because the US is omnipotent and other people are mere putty in our hands, taking marching orders from Washington.
Come on guys, this is silly. Have a little respect for these people in other countries. They have their own motives, their own narratives, their own calculations. Yes, we figure as a factor in those narratives and calculations, and sometimes a big factor, but that's really about it. Please stop being so narcissistic - not everything is about us.
