I believe that American foreign policy has as much to do
with rubles and cents as it does with the arrangement of the
nations and continents on a world map. Americans have always been
portrayed (in America) as counter-balancing and reacting to world
events in a fashion to maintain fairness and security in the
world. However, it is true that Americans initiate foreign
policy, just as much as any other nation acts in its own best
interests. There can not be any real wrongdoing, as far as any
nation's policy dictates, except for the contortion of the
individual freedom to be motivated and act for oneself.
