This seems to be a fundamental _western_ (probably _not_ just u.s.*) strategy for maintaing hegemony going back at least to the dismemberment of Yugoslavia in the early '90s. And it's a strategy which dres in _many_ left liberals to support it, as reflected in the terms "cruise-missile liberals" and "humanitarian bombers." By saying "western" rather than "u.s." I am suggesting that there is more or less complete unity of european and u.s. capital. And so far, at any rate, there is no serious challenge raised by China or Russia to this unified west.
