Of course. I wasn't suggesting this was a unique mindset, and it certainly isn't the substance of what I'm saying...

You see, worse then putting in a puppet government or occupying their land would be to do so and show weakness. Their concept of partnership is not a western one either.

Interesting take. I'll have to think about it. Does anyone else have any counter points?
