The long lasting impact on the USA is horrible. We wage undeclared wars, without consent of Congress, in violation of the “war powers act”, declare a head of state a proper subject for “kill or capture” and then then they are captured, they are savaged to death by a mob. At least USA made sure some semblance of order was put in place after Japan, Germany, Balkan war, through Marshall plan, UN, NATO or KFOR but recently, in Egypt, Libya, Uganda? etc. it is “Let the chips fall where they may”. We do a turn-key coup d e’tat over to a murky mob of Islamists and think we helped make the world safe for democracy? Is that it?
