The USA uses some sort of ‘human rights” and “fighting for democracy” as fig leaves for self vested interests and empire building.

Is Libya or a Iraq a better place after the US went in there or worse? Even if all these wars are done for the best intentions - that is the worse reason of all because that is what paves hell.

I rather the world be ruled by a pirate king than some noble do gooder to be honest.

To quote CS Lewis:

“Of all tyrannies, a tyranny sincerely exercised for the good of its victims may be the most oppressive. It would be better to live under robber barons than under omnipotent moral busybodies. The robber baron’s cruelty may sometimes sleep, his cupidity may at some point be satiated; but those who torment us for our own good will torment us without end for they do so with the approval of their own conscience.”
