Pretty much, yeah. I don't like the way we've gone into Iraq, for example, and tried to tell them how they should live and we have done that. Our country often tries to impress a democratic society on others who have zero interest in it. The Iraq bullshit probably bothers me more than most. I haven't been able to find anyone who can tell me what was accomplished, tell me something that justifies the deaths & maiming of so many people. That country is worse off after we invaded them than it was with Saddam running the show. I don't want my country going into other countries and telling them how their home should be managed.
...and further more, it really burns my ass that we give any help whatsoever to Israel. Fuck them. I know they have to but I don't give 2 fucks about those people. They are bullies too.
