It would be more productive if you addressed my comment, and not some comment you just made up.
As for this:
>U.S. foreign policy is aimed at maintaining stability and facilitating liberal capitalist democracy
I believe that you believe this. But I'm not treating it as an axiom, so you'll have to give evidence for it.
- random314 4y agoStability is a euphemism for a government supporting economic arrangements favoring western corporations. https://chomsky.info/fateful02/ https://chomsky.info/fateful02/ "Liberal capitalist democracy" - this is obvious nonsense when you list out all of the regime changes forced on the countries by the United States.

- random314 4y agoLike the coups that USA conducts to remove democracy to install dictatorships. Most Americans have absurd views of American foreign policy because of ignorance. But, given your Bangladeshi origin, in your case it is not ignorance. You are just volunteering as an unpaid American propagandist or random social media forums, even though you are well aware of all the CIA coups all over the world. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/1973_Chilean_coup_d%27%C3%A9tat#:~:text=On%2011%20September%201973%2C%20after,power%20in%20a%20coup%20of https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/1973_Chilean_coup_d%27%C3%A9ta...
