I hear you, and I share what I perceive as your disgust. Forgive me if I assume too much.
I am in favor of the U.S. pulling out of every nation, every cause, let them rise or fall on their own merits, particularly those countries who take
the U.S. aid/benefit, and bite the hand immediately before and afterward.
I think the U.S. has problems aplenty of its own, and the sooner it eases out illegal occupiers and clamps down its borders and takes care of its own
the better. It was a good run, playing the world savior, but you have children dying of malnutrition within your own borders, and as Ellis Paul
says, "the world ain't slowin' down. hey hey".
I think the U.S. has been the helper to much of the world, and sure, it seeks to further its own interests as well. If your efforts aren't
appreciated, it's time to reevaluate your goals. Sorry world, sucks to be you, we have our own stinking pile of crap to deal with, hope you make
it, thanks for the support, thanks for the "kick me" sign, have a good life, we wish you well, be safe, nanunanu.

There. Now I've had my nightly rant and can now return to the gentle, compassionate person I usually am. [stomping away in the distance, muttering
unintelligibily]
I'm fine, really.
