It's a proven fact that the Russians did try to meddle in American affairs, and the only question is if any Americans were involved. There is enough evidence to send Trump cronies to jail already.

As far as the agreement that sold uranium ore to Russia, the only ones questioning it is you right wing loonies who have little knowledge at all about the process and policies that goes into such transactions.

As usual you have nothing but hot air and uninformed opinion.

Demigods come and go, the only relevant demigod is the right wing one who is here now.

The CIA (or USA if you prefer) has a vested interest in not just letting dictators grab resources and profit while closing trade opportunities (AND profits, okay!) for the USA. More so is the basic FACT that this has been the history of man, and no nation has ever operated in a vacuum without a full blown bloody war. Even you must concede that our "meddling" was done in conjunction with other factions within those nations. Sometimes those factions do gain power, and turn against us, or go on their own, but that's the history of every dominant power going back to Babylonian times, and further. That's the nature of man, and you cannot ignore that this goes on.

To your specific examples though you left out the CONTEXT of that "meddling" or the circumstances surrounding them which was a greater threat to the region, or population, or business of our own interests. I know you have been known to be prejudiced against USA in general since I have been on these boards, but a more objective view might give you a fuller understanding of the scope of our adventures throughout the world.

I will agree our government has collude with many dastardly characters to make money for multinational interest, what nation hasn't? Even your own government will sell dirt and stuff to any nation or customer that can pay for it with little regard how it's used so what's the point of staying on your high horse because we do the same on a much larger global scale? Many spies and factions with agendas out in the world, and we are but one with the greatest tools and resources.

Everybody wants guns! And we got 'em but they aren't free. So let's put this in perspective about our "meddling" and atrocities according to you, in that we are a BIGGER player on the world stage and all us humans are screwed up, and just being an isolated nuclear capable capitalist super power is NOT in our national interest.

Great research and I respect your opinion, and I hope you understand that size does matter, and the USA ain't perfect. Despite all your trepidation and criticism though you Aussies are smart enough to be allies instead of adversaries I see.

You shouldn't blame ALL the ills of today's world just on the USA Clete. It's much more complicated than that.

I don't Tal but I know that they have a large share of the blame, that namby pramby UN has a lot to answer for too, but this what happens when socialists have too much power.

Just think

Who created the problem in Iran; the USA
Who created the problem in Afghanistan; The USA
Who created the problem in Iraq; the USA
Who created the problem in Korea; the North Koreans
Who pushed Japan into a war; the USA

Can you show me where military confrontation has not been your foreign policy?; not often

This is what happens when an accountant who obviously flunked world history, and is highly prejudicial, forms and opinion... you get hot air bereft of factual ACCOUNTING. All you had to do was Google it before you wrote.




European history is no less bloody or loony by your standard.
