"Maybe I'm missing something here. I mean, we're going to have kind of a nation-building corps from America? Absolutely not. It needs to be in our vital interest, the mission needs to be clear, and the exit strategy obvious.

I'm not so sure the role of the United States is to go around the world and say this is the way it's got to be. I think the United States must be humble . . . in how we treat nations that are figuring out how to chart their own course." -- George W. Bush chiding Al Gore for the Clinton administration's actions in Somalia, 2000. [via [livejournal.com profile] andrewducker ]
