When we look at global situations today, the words of our founding fathers
are becoming more relevant daily.

It's exactly what I said. Ten billion dollars we paid into this guy's
coffers to keep a military dictator who overthrew an elected government.
And we're supposed to die for spreading democracy? We're going broke.
And now we've created chaos in that country. We had Bhutto come back in
there. Everybody over there knows our CIA is trying to run things. That's
why he's so unpopular. As long as we're going to interfere, there will
be a motivation for people to get rid of our puppet government and turn
against us as well. That's where the radicalism comes from. It's a response
to a foreign policy that is seriously flawed.
