In my opinion, it is much better to simply recognize and make clear that we're promoting our own security interests. Otherwise, we will be setting ourselves up for another failure when imposed democracy fails.

Well said.

There are many of us here who are very realistic about the capabilities and limitations of military intervention. There is an appropriate time and place for such action and when the reasons are obscured by political expediency and self-righteous delusion, we lose sight of our underlying commitment to act in this nation's best interests.
