Well, as a retired US military citizen, who held some multiple character clearances, with alphabet soup behind the hyphen, I'll suggest you read the writings of US Marine Corps General Smedley Butler.

Then, with an eye to those true words, review history since.

Although, fuck all if I can figure out *why* we'd overthrow Iraq. Iraqi oil goes to Europe.

But then, the US overthrew Iran's democracy to install the corrupt and inept Shah, at the behest of British oil interests.

Something I had long attributed to "taking care of war buddies".
