Talk about self righteous, I agree America is not perfect, and we cannot be everything to everyone but I do believe you need to do some research about all the things the U.S. does accomplish and how we support many other countries, granted I dont know much about Rwanda, but out of my league? I dont think so.

I thought the US invaded to help the Iraqis. How is denying the Iraqis the products of other countries is supposed to help?
I see Bush screwing up everything the US have worked so hard to accomplish, that's what I see. Don't like the US justice system? Let's send them to Guantanamo Bay. Can't torture prisoners? Let's send them to our Syrian friends. Need proof before invading a country? Screw that. Need I go on?
Maybe you should read more about Rwanda. I'm currently reading Romeo Dallaire's book and he reveals interesting things about how super powers like France, the US and UK go about deciding wether they should send troops or not. They sent there own teams on the ground to investigate and you know what they report back? Something like: "Nothing of value here, only humans not much in the way of resources."
