No need to be hasty; I'm sure that those offended are a minority, else
more would complain. I for one am enjoying this thread. Being American
myself, I'm happy to see more people sharing my own ideas on the
motherland's rather insane foreign policy. I'll be the first to agree;
American policy depends solely on the buck; if we have money there, then
by God we'll defend it! But help a true abuse of basic human rights?

Prez: "What's this East Timor business? Do we have interests there?"
SecOfInt: "No, none."
Prez: "Okay, let 'em rot. How's the oil in Kuwait?"

I'm afraid we've never really been driven by humanitarian urges. Even in
the time of Ted Roosevelt and his little pond in the Eastern Hem. we've
only been motivated by money. A sad observation, but true.

BTW, how was the DEA started? I don't know much about that branch.
