are you talking about the usa? or france, or italy?

Never said the US was perfect, but generally after a US military intervention, the result has been a better standard of living for the people involved. However, I acknowledge the embarrassing fact that we've often supported non-democratic regimes out of national interest. But we're not trying to annex those countries either.

you are certainly not talking about china, per simple history

Sure I am.. Tibet, Taiwan, Vietnam.. and they certainly supported N. Korea in an attempt to conquer S. Korea (losing hundreds of thousands of Chinese soldier's lives in the process).

Can you state one case where Chinese soldiers died to further the power of a people to have a democratic say in their government?

And remember all the military support China provided to Pol Pot..

And then there is the military support to the Military leadership in Burma (Myamar) over the past decades.

Those are/were Chinese weapons.

Go to Cambodia someday and mention Khmer Rouge and Pol Pot freely in public.. I dare you.. The Cambodian population REMAINS traumatized to this day by what was inflicted upon them by a Chinese Puppet.
