hmmm, again you are on a tangent.

>>HAWK = they prop up the non-democratic governments in exchange for exploiting the resources of those countries.

>>Sarman = Hawk, you are describing us.

>>HAWK = Since you have no problem with permitting other foreign powers imposing non-democratic rule over the people of Afghanistan and exploiting their resources, I don't see why you'd have a problem if we did it (not that we are going to).

We propped up the Shah of Iran, we prop up the Saudis, just to name a few.
