No doubt that the U.S. seems to have a history of using countries until they have outgrown their usefulness to us and then leaving them high n' dry. It's the American way. :/ The only reason that this particular operation (and that in Afghanistan) make me think a little differently is that out government is heavily selling both as an altruistic and humanitarian rebuilding of deomocracy. In other words, they've put a big spotlight on it so that not only does the world see our self-indulgence, the citizens of our fair country also have it on their minds. Our government's always had a way of hiding it's misadventures in the media and now it has to "pony up" and make it count. I'm just wondering if they'll come through now that we're REALLY watching.
