No matter how left or right w/r/t domestic politics, no American administration has ever been anything but all-in imperialist. ‘Nation-building’ is just what we call overthrowing governments to install regimes that put American business’s interests first and enforce wealth extraction with whatever brutality is necessary. The war was wrong because robbery is wrong, not because we fucked it up.
