That is correct, except for the fact that over and over again the USA has always bet on the wrong horses.
Today, in Afghanistan, Premier Hamid Karzai is basically the mayor of Kabul .... and was imposed by the USA ( came back from exile ).
In Iraq, Prime Minister Nouri al-Maliki is also a " plant " that was in exile, chosen by the USA after Chaladi became an embarassement.
Now, for Iran, the USA would like to install the " exiled crown prince " Reza Pahlavi. This is the last guy that moderate iranians want to see in power.
