It's crazy that people can admit the US is trying to dominate the world like it is some kind of innocent thing. The US doesn't care about democracy or the people of these countries. All the US cares about is opening markets there so their corporations can turn them into shallow materialistic fuck up societies like they have at home. Why do you think Hamas got elected? Because they don't want their culture to turn into a worthless steaming pile of shit like America's is.
