"For more than 70 years, the United States convinced much of the world that it somehow needed the United States to save it from communist darkness. 'Just buy our weapons,' said Washington, 'let our military and our corporations roam freely across your land, and give us veto power over who your leaders will be, and we'll protect you.'" --William Blum, "Rogue State"
