    Most of these incidents were horribly unsuccessful, I don’t know how this proves your point?

      What you’ve been suggesting is that the American entity can use violence to enact it’s will upon the world and upon its people, but those same people are not allowed to use violence to stop the entity from enacting said violence against them.

      Im merely giving a couple of examples where america has used violence to change a system.

      You know, like Cuba, where they shut off every drop of oil and use their navy to steal it, with the direct aim to make life so bad that the citizens revolt and overthrow their own government so that america can sweep in and save the day with their own very agreeable and way less communist leader.

      And Venezuela where they used the extrajudicial abduction of a country’s leader to test out their new “melt their eyes and brain out of their face” weapon on the guards

      And in their own home state Philadelphia where they made up a justification in the mass media, then dropped a firebomb on a black residental area for the crime of being a bit too communist

      And Iran, leading to them also killing the government they installed the first time they did a ‘regime change’ because the ayatollah at the time wanted to nationalise his country’s natural resources, and the agencies didn’t like the fact that americah didn’t control it.

      And in a number of middle eastern countries where the americans and their allies managed to replace the Taliban… with the Taliban.
