Contrary to a lot of propaganda, we are not by nature imperialists, and never will be. Perhaps that is the quintessential global problem we have on our hands. There exist no more or less benevolent powers such as England willing to nation-build, then leave when the work is completed.

And it doesn't always work, witness England's many former African colonies which are a mess.

It's a different world, colonialism isn't going to happen. Unless, of course, a Caliphate is established, but I don't want to even consider such a horrible possibility.
