JF, How, when, did we get to the point where we think we have the right, or the power, to "fix" the world?

Then I guess we'll just have to brace ourselves for more bombs, beheadings, and other horrors, just like I said.

But I'm sure we Americans are just too spoiled rotten to take a bloody nose once in a while.

There are "regimes" all over the world that we disagree with on differing levels. Are we going to replace them all? If some country (or group of countries) eventually gets militarily stronger than we are, and they disagree with us, are they justified in replacing our "regime"? Does "might = right" in all cases, or only as it applies to the US?

Its amazing that we are having this discussion. Of course, even more amazing is that they believe we have a divine right to replace whatever regime we want and then pretend we are going for democracy.
