Bringing the light to the people in darkness

 Back when the US was bringing light to the Philippines, Mark Twain wrote that this bringing light was no longer such a good idea, the quality of the remaining darkness was far inferior to that of those nations to which the US had already brought the light. And that seems to be even more true today than back when Twain wrote it around the turn of the 19th century to the 20th.

After Vietnam, Carter failed to bring Democracy to any country, just like Trump. Both were lazy good-for-nothing presidents, and both were booted out of office after one term.

Reagan saw an existential threat to world peace, one of the world's most powerful military powers, but he brought Democracy, peace, and prosperity to Grenada. Bush, Sr. then did the same for Panama.

But then the Austin newspaper had a cartoon of Uncle Sam, the Great White Hunter, holding his elephant gun, with two mouseheads mounted on his trophy wall.

So Bush, Sr. convinced Saddam to take Kuwait, then attacked Iraq and liberated Kuwait, while also imposing crushing sanctions that are thought to have resulted in the deaths of more than 500,000 children who could not get enough food or any medicine for the balance of Bush, Sr's term and Clinton's term and Bush, jr's term.

Then Clinton liberated Yugoslavia, and made a deal just like the Iran deal with Saddam, with UN inspectors verifying that Iraq no longer had any WMD, so Bush, Jr found plenty of WMD the UN missed and sent the US military to hand Saddam over to a lynch mob. Great job. Just what US presidents should be doing.

Obama liberated Libya, and started on Syria.

Then Trump did absolutely nothing, but St Biden has promised to liberate Syria and the Ukraine and Venezuela and Bolivia and ...

Will Russia and the PRC sit back and let St Biden bring Democracy to all those countries, plus also Russia and the PRC?

As I started, the Darkness that is left is not of the same calibre as the darkness that engulfed Grenada and Panama and Iraq and Libya.

Even Iran looks like it could be a very big deal. Let alone Russia and the PRC.

But we'll have St Joe, and I'm sure he knows how to force regime change in Syria, Iran, the DPRK, Russia and the PRC, and won't have the slightest difficulty.

And what could possibly go wrong????
