<< If the 20th Century and 91101 teaches us ANYTHING, it's that Western imperialism was pre-maturely abandoned... >> Colonialism and occupation, of backward nations, by civilized, educated countries has been portrayed as evil and bad. Almost every time a colonial power pulled out, the uneducated, unwashed millions "there" turned on each other to plunder their own country and kill each other. The world still doesn't realize how really good Western imperialism was for the third world.
