I realize you are trying to make a call for social justice and responsibility, but it sounds like whining. On going, buzz buzzing whining.
The US is not over stepping it's bounds. If it were, we would have forcibly conquered a good chunk of the globe, simply by running it over with drunk marines. As it is, it is a few incidents, accidental or otherwise, that get press and get people buzz buzzing about how evil the government can be. Then you get citizens everywhere, well meaning, good intentioned people, who say, "We shouldn't be in this country/situation/pee-pee soaked Hekk hole." I have news for you, a lot of countries call for American interference. Just last week some Prime Minister of some country that I'm sure I'll remember when I'm sober and not so tired was saying that the only way anything can be resolved in his corner of the globe is if America mediates. Or some such nonsense like that.
And finally, to wrap myself up, I ask you to read Mortes post, "over seas, PLEASE." It just goes to show that civility is spit on by all people, not just Americans.
