I don't know if Sun Tzu would think Jimmy Carter's foreign policy was shaped by this country's founding moral principles. Carter used human rights as the principle measure of foreign policy. They are different. Of course, there's that elephant in the room as to the morality of the US's founding principles that made a negro person 3/5's of a human as a founding principle.

The world would have been very different today if Brzezinski and Carter had not dreamed up their "Green Belt" as a cheap way to keep the Soviets in check. Supporting the Islamists started with Carter, not Reagan. Again, the bigger flaw is structural. When it comes to foreign policy, the US lacks the ability to to plan more than 2 years ahead. So even if I were to accept that it all falls on Reagan (it doesn't) it would have been a small blip if the subsequent administrations had behaved consistently and ethically.
