Thanks for confirming another point which hardly comes thru...
"American business has always invested in Totalitarian regimes".

Its in their "financial interest" to do so...
Or until the particular Totalitarian regime is declared to be "evil" by the Washington Admin., and hence American "interests" (business) need protecting.

Then the solution comes along... a War to remove one Dictator, to replace it with another (which is compliant of US Business wishes).

... And this is how America bring "democracy and freedom" to the world. Enpowering Dictators and Totalitarian regimes, so as to further America's economic interests.
