>>No, not really. Considering when something bad happens anywhere in the world, nobody calls Canada, nobody calls Turkey, nobody calls Sweden. They call us to fix it. They call us to send billions in aid. They call us to take care of their crazy saber rattling neighbors.

Did you know France has had military operations Mali since 2012 without the advice, consent, or involvement of the US, for instance?
